You should never have to wonder whether soldiers are watching you vote. This footage shows uniformed troops standing beside an official ballot drop box in Washington, D.C. Who sent them there? What were their orders?

Is this real? If so, Trump has struck a deal for Russian oil. If this goes ahead, the US will be funding Russia’s war machine as it murders children, tortures, rapes and murders Ukrainian people as part of its genocidal war

Florida has led the charge in book banning for the past five years and the state ranked second overall in the number of bans during the 2025-26 school year. Public records requests from @flfreedomread.bsky.social reveal more about the state of school book bans in Florida: pen.org/report/book-...
Map of Florida filled with images of book covers, with the text "Banned Books Week 2026" at the top. Below, it reads "State of Book Bans '25-'26 School Year: Florida." The PEN America and Florida Freedom to Reads logos are at the bottom.Image showing text about book bans in the 2025-2026 school year with a stack of books at the bottom. It states Florida had 3,212 total book bans, the second highest after Texas. Additionally, it mentions 35 school districts with bans, with 11 districts having more than 100 bans. Includes PEN America and Florida Freedom to Read logos.The image is an infographic titled "Key Multiplier" by PEN America. It describes an "escalation of state pressure," how state leaders use laws to make districts self-censor, and the result where pressure on one district in June 2025 led others to remove similar lists of titles quietly. The background features an image of a government building with columns. PEN America and Florida Freedom to Read logos are present.A poster titled "Most banned books in Florida by district" features book covers and titles. Books listed are "Sold" by Patricia McCormick, "Trans Mission" by Alex Bertie, "The Pact" by Jodi Picoult, "Tilt" by Ellen Hopkins, "Storm and Fury" by Jennifer L. Armentrout, "Speak" by Laurie Halse Anderson, and "A Court of Thorns and Roses" by Sarah J. Maas. The PEN America logo is in the top right corner. The text notes these books were banned in 8+ districts. PEN America and Florida Freedom to Read logos are present.

I spent my career helping to build DHS during the Bush, Obama, and Trump years. We must abolish ICE. It’s lost all public trust. It must be eliminated. We can never again allow an agency to become the president’s “secret police.”
