A 4-star general testified he’d launch military attacks inside the U.S. on “designated terrorists” if he is given a lawful order. Add in Trump’s NSPM‑7 order that targets "left-wing groups" and “anti-government” beliefs and you're watching America slide into military rule.

Jasmine Crockett isn’t mincing words: rent keeps climbing, wages stay frozen, groceries cost more every week—and politicians still want to blame immigrants? Stop deflecting. Fix the real problems Americans actually live with

For over 20 years, Washington has tried sanctions, coups, and backroom deals to get control of #Venezuela’s oil—and failed. In fact when Bush failed he pivoted to another failed war in Iraq. Why should anyone trust Trump to send U.S. troops into harm’s way for another oil war?

Covert CIA operations plus overt strikes in Venezuela are a recipe for blowback: kidnappings, cyberattacks, proxy violence, and years of low‑grade war. Trump is gambling with American lives and stability for a reckless regime‑change fantasy

Coming home isn’t simple. Leaving the military means losing a whole way of life, and there’s no one “right” way to be a #veteran. Your experience is yours—no one else gets to script it. Give yourself some grace. You’ve carried heavier loads than this. You’ve got this.

At Beaverton City Hall, a young woman calls out Officer Lamb for falsifying reports and ignoring a terrifying ICE incident. Her question to police is pure courage and democracy in action: if you’re not willing to do your jobs, are you willing to let us do them for you?”

Lisa Rubin: “I thought we were going to see something. What I saw instead was a 100 page document that says 'Grand Jury of New York' at the top of it, and that's the only text that you can see. ...every single page of it is completely and 100% blacked out.”

Andrew Weissman: A responsible DOJ would have had a press conference, and they would have talked through the measures they took. You know that there is a problem when they do this through a short-form announcement on Fox News that doesn't address any of our questions

Tomorrow’s class divide won’t just be about money—it’ll be between those taught to think and those trained to bubble in answers. We’re mass-producing test takers instead of problem solvers—and that’s a crisis for American innovation and democracy itself.

A former student shows up to thank the teacher who changed his life—with her handwritten note tattooed over his heart. One kind message, one good teacher, and an entire future shifted. Never underestimate the power of a teacher who believes in you‼️

More educated women, mean more educated children and whole societies move forward. That's not true for men. That’s not an accident—that’s patriarchy terrified of women who can think, earn, and lead. Educate women, and you don’t just lift families. You rewrite the future.

Interesting to consider that if you were to go and deface the Kennedy center by removing Trump’s name, you’d be arrested and charged with a crime, but your act would be no more unlawful than what they’re doing right now.

Zohran proved New Yorkers are ready to turn the page on machine politics.

#NY13 voters made that clear & it's why we're proud to endorse @DarializaforNY for Congress.

The Congress we deserve invests in babies not bombs, immigrants over ICE & renters not real estate developers.
