Donald Trump scrapped free entry to National Parks on Martin Luther King Jr. Day and replaced it with his own birthday.

California will not be following that path.

I've directed California State Parks to offer free entry at more than 200 participating parks on MLK Day.

Trump had the president of the U.S. Institute of Peace forcibly removed from his office earlier this year.

A federal court ruled that his dismantling of the USIP was a "gross usurpation of power"—the case is still in court.

Now he's slapping his name and his own toxic brand on the building anyway.

Interesting. Ghislaine Maxwell's lawyers says she will plead the fifth if forced to testify to Congress. But she willingly sat down with Todd Blanche? What a load of horseshit. www.politico.com/live-updates...

ICYMI: The GOP is trying to pass Permitting Reform legislation that would gut protections for Tribes and communities to oppose strip mining and oil and gas drilling.

These lands have been protected by Tribal treaty rights since the 19th Century. How is this America First?

An alarming story about Flock’s automatic license plate reader (ALPR) cameras ...

"Often, officers will search cameras nationwide even if investigating a case in their own state. Typically this is done without a warrant, something that critics like the EFF and the ACLU have recently sued over."
A massive cache of Flock lookups collated by the Electronic Frontier Foundation (EFF) shows as many as 50 federal, state, and local agencies used Flock during protests over the last year.

Rev. Bates-Chamberlain: Once ICE came in on their rampage, you literally had mass agents kidnapping people off the streets. It felt like you were in a horror movie, but this was a real occurrence happening in the United States in 2025.

To everyone saying that people in our military already know not to follow unlawful orders, how do you explain almost 100 civilians murdered on fishing boats in the Caribbean so far?

Before the midterms of 1866, President Andrew Johnson called his congressional opponents traitors and said they should be hanged.

Voters were so profoundly moved by his words... that they gave his opponents a supermajority in Congress, and the nation got the Fourteenth Amendment.

Mark Kelly: "He's talked about sending troops into more cities, he's talked about invoking the Insurrection Act. You don't have to go too far back to his 1st administration when he went to his Sec Def & said, 'Can't we just shoot these protesters in the legs.' That is an example of an illegal order"

I enjoyed attending the PAWS Chicago Annual ‘Fur Ball!’ As a no-kill shelter, PAWS has saved tens of thousands of animals – reducing euthanasia of Chicago’s homeless animals by over 90%.

As a dog dad and Co-Chair of the Animal Protection Caucus, I’m proud to fight to end unjust animal killings.

Another legacy of John Roberts
We spent a year investigating billionaires for @washingtonpost.com.

We found: the wealthiest 100 Americans gave $1.1 billion to influence the 2024 elections — 140x more than they did in 2000. And almost all of that giving boosted Republicans.
