Optimism says, “It’s fine,” but hope says, “We can make it better.” Optimism can be passive, while hope demands action. Hope sees the challenges and pushes us to act, organize, and create real change.

BREAKING: Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth stripped Gen. Mark Milley of his security detail and clearance—an unprecedented attack on the former top U.S. general, long targeted by Trump.

MARK MILLEY is a HERO.

Trump’s pettiness makes us less safe and could literally get someone killed.

Hey Jim- You were the best that @cnn.com had to offer & will be deeply missed! I look forward to the next chapter in your career & I'm not just saying that because of the killer Yoda impression you did when I was on your show.

This #MLKDay, we honor Dr. King’s vision of economic justice. Systemic racism and economic inequality are inextricably linked. A continued reliance on the broken promises of trickle-down economics has only widened the racial wealth gap.

Oh if only a big newspaper had denounced the coming policy BEFORE the election. Instead of endless stories about how Harris didn't talk to the press enough.

If Trump issues his own order on Day 1, as he’s vowed, the first people could enter detention camps by February.

Trump is already defying Congress and the Supreme Court and he hasn’t even been sworn in yet!

Donald Trump can’t change history, we know what we saw on this day four years ago. It was domestic terrorism and treason, plain and simple. No number of pardons or lies will change that.
