Being against mail-in ballots is being against our Troops’ right to vote. For generations, we have cast ballots by mail, dating back to the Civil War.

Denying that right is a betrayal of service, and yet another way Trump disrespects those who serve.

What happens to health research when 'women' and 'diversity' are banned words?
Trump's federal funding cuts are shutting down studies on Alzheimer’s care, uterine fibroids and pregnancy risks — all because they focus on gender.

“Those nasty Canadians are ripping us off and are controlled by Mexican cartels. They’re poisoning us with fentanyl and need to become the 51st state or they will pay a high price” is a belief that literally ZERO Americans had six weeks ago. It’s entirely invented from scratch.

Trump put Elon Musk in charge of gutting the federal workforce—and Veterans are paying the price.

28% of federal workers are Vets. Now, thousands are being fired without cause under DOGE. Their service clearly meant NOTHING to this administration.

Coming to a library near you. This is in Arkansas, but it's a test site to see just how far they can go. They can't ban books, so now they are cutting funding to libraries. Some of these libraries are in really rural areas of the state, and the communities desperately need them. #Arkansas
Challenges to public library funding throughout Arkansas meet frustration, some resistance • Arkansas Advocate
Librarians and library advocates in several counties have said they are heartened by public opposition to defunding efforts.

Dear people who don’t use the Oxford comma:

It’s never too late to do the right thing. Everyone makes mistakes, and we shouldn’t be judged solely by our pasts. What matters is the here and now. So come over to the right side of history for a fresh, new, and beautiful beginning.
