We urge a federal court to keep halting the deployment of the National Guard in D.C.

The administration’s deployment of the National Guard to D.C. has resulted in more harm in Black communities. The court must protect D.C. residents and deny the administration’s request to continue the deployment.

We condemn The Trump administration’s decision to deploy federal agents to New Orleans. This is another attempt to push harmful stereotypes about immigrants of color.

America has and will always be a nation of immigrants. No amount of federal enforcement or intimidation tactics will change that.

Trump is gutting Wall Street safeguards and firing the examiners that make sure megabanks aren’t scamming you or putting our economy at risk.

Trump will own the next financial crisis, but we’re all going to pay for it.

For me, 2025 has felt like a particularly heavy year ... and you might feel the same. So as we head into the holiday season, I wanted to share a few recommendations — books, podcasts, and newsletters — that encourage me, make me think, and remind me how hope begins with action.

New in PN: Costco demands a refund from Trump

"One of the biggest importers in the country has entered the fray, at the risk of finding itself crosswise with the Trump administration. This is what happens when you let the president break the law for a little while."

"It’s difficult to conceive of a cohesive and robust Republican Party emerging out of the ruins being wrought by Trump. And considering the untold damage the party has done to the nation over the past 25 years, perhaps that's for the better."

The end is in sight — and it's not pretty for the GOP.

These are good moments to remember that the CEOs of all the biggest companies in America are happy to go to White House dinners and slap this guy’s back. They do not care about this. Remember this, years from now, when they want you to forget.
Trump: "It’s a hellhole right now. And those Somalians should be out of here. They've destroyed our country. And all they do is complain, complain, complain. You have her. She’s always talking about the Constitution provides me with – go back to your own country and figure out your constitution."

This entire year day after day, Hakeem Jeffries has been nothing but a complicit failure. The fight he puts up is fake. Everything that comes out of his mouth is a performance with no substance.

WE CANNOT LET THE SHIT CONTINUE!

Next year we can remove every single establishment puppet from office!
Just today, Jeffries has praised Trump on his signature issue, and excused a pardon Trump handed to a corrupt Democrat.

He couldn’t be less up to the moment if he tried.

Corporate Dem Rep Henry Cuellar & his wife were indicted in March 2024 for accepting hundreds of thousands in foreign bribes.

Trump just pardoned them.

Hakeem Jeffries is praising Trump’s decision as “exactly the right outcome” & praising Cuellar as “a beloved member of the House.”

Ridiculous.😐
