the survivors who elevated the one issue that has rocked Trump and his MAGA cultists, condemned Trump for the cover-up, and denounced justice system that enables the rich and powerful predators to remain anonymous show unimaginable bravery and self-sacrifice. open.substack.com/pub/contrari...

The NSA audited the 2024 election. An exclusive interview with a former CIA operative confirms what 41% of Democrats already knew—Kamala Harris won the 2024 election.

Ex-CIA Whistleblower: "The NSA Audited The 2024 Election, Kamala Harris Won"
Math doesn’t lie—people do. A buried NSA‑authorized audit paved the way for this unelected illegitimate regime.

NY Times and Democracy Docket cover the same hearing. Notice the difference in framing.

This is why -- right now-- we need independent, pro-democracy media.

Very similar to Nazi-Germany in 1933. Just some weeks after Hitler took over power -> Dachau has been opened.

Nearly 2/3 of Americans oppose what DOGE and the GOP are trying to do to dismantle Social Security, Medicaid, & vital programs.

To our seniors, people living with disabilities, working moms, kids, and folks just struggling to get by—know that we see you, we hear you, & we are fighting for you!

My colleagues across the aisle just called our fight to protect Social Security “garbage.” I’m sorry—WHAT!?!?
 
Seniors, veterans, children, & people with disabilities are not “garbage.”

We don’t work for billionaires. We work for the people. And, we will continue to fight like hell for them.

*Of course* advance information on US combat operations is classified. Pretending otherwise is an insult to our troops, who all know this.

This is getting fewer headlines than it should. After coming to power promising to help working people, the president is revealing his real priorities by actively making it easier for banks to rip people off.

We just wanted to keep you all updated estimates are now approaching 4 million. Incredible job pulling this off on a holiday weekend! It was tough to get accurate counts today because small towns showed up in force. Some states had record-breaking turnout we didn’t expect this includes

Sorry, we promised not to post much today but we had to make a special callout. We forgot to give a proper shoutout to a few places yesterday. Denver and Dallas Fort Worth, you broke records. You were incredible.
