250 years ago today America began its march toward independence at the Battles of Lexington and Concord. The battles marked “No Kings Day, Part I.” Today millions of Americans will take part in “No Kings Day, Part II.”

Trump’s war on higher ed and public schools has expanded to an exciting new front: pre-K! Elon Musk and DOGE are shutting down a preschool near you. The richest government contractor in the world will stop those 3-year olds from defrauding our people.
Head Start funding lags by nearly $1 billion this year, causing some preschool closures
Federal databases show Head Start centers across the U.S. have received nearly $1 billion less in federal funding compared with this time last year.

We have the most anti-free speech government in modern American history.

I’m working to get answers—low-income seniors and children and adults with disabilities would be put in a devastating position if their Social Security benefits get delayed or disrupted.
Warren, two Senate colleagues demand answers on Social Security website problems, agency cuts - The Boston Globe
The senators said they are concerned disruptions and efforts to “hollow out” the agency are “a precursor to attempts to make further cuts to Social Security, or privatize it entirely.”

Not for nothing, but how, exactly, is it legal to send people for *punishment* in a foreign prison (esp with no due process)? Were the funds being used for it appropriated for this purpose? I feel this has just become a thing no one questions
