On this Inauguration day, I take a look at how anti-Trump organizers are feeling about activism in his second term www.npr.org/2025/01/20/n...
npr.org
With fewer protesters and a renewed focus, activists plan for a second round of Trump
President-elect Donald Trump takes office Monday and Democratic organizers are not seeing the mass-scale opposition they witnessed in 2017. So, they're adjusting with a focus on Trump's agenda.

Vice President Harris is giving a speech directed at young Americans today. It comes after she underperformed with voters under 30 last month. (She won the group, but compared to President Biden's 2020 performance, her margin dropped by 13 points.) www.youtube.com/watch?v=EBQv...
