He’s going to keep saying increasingly offensive things because it earns him attention and…if he’s lucky…it will turn Americans against each other before the election so he can justify a show of force. Don’t fall for it.

The Trump administration’s actions resulted in the destruction of the largest ancient Cottonwood tree on Indigenous territory in Arizona. This tree, known as the “Grandmother Tree,” was 250 years old.

The project to deny college students their right to vote in NH is at least as old as the Tea Party takeover in 2010, when the incoming House Speaker openly admitted a plan to stop "liberal" college voters from counting.

Subverting democracy isn't new to John Roberts, Brett Kavanaugh, or Amy Coney Barrett. All three were on George W. Bush's "Florida Recount Team," which lay the groundwork for stopping vote counting in Florida—and Bush v. Gore, the politically-motivated SCOTUS decision that gave Bush the election.

Susan Collins announcing she'll vote against a controversial nominee is basically the moment it becomes clear that nominee will be confirmed. It means Thune has enough votes to confirm, and thus, Collins gets a pass to look independent.

Trump must be impeached for undermining and subverting our free and fair elections. And when he sends ICE agents to the polls, then we must turn civic action into civil disobedience and take to the streets. Sit in. Protest. Withhold our labor. Everything must be on the table.

Pay attention to who is willing to break the law for Donald Trump as we head into the midterm elections—because his end goal is to create a system where others will break the law for him. It's about building up a custom where it's normal to break the law for a person. The big case is the military.

Susan Collins is largely responsible for Brett Kavanaugh—a man credibly accused of rape—being confirmed as a justice on the Supreme Court. As a result, Roe v Wade was overturned, and we now have “Kavanaugh stops” and a dismantled Voting Rights Act. She deserves to be unseated, NOT applauded.

It’s not a “technical matter” that working families are forced to cut back on the essentials like groceries and gas to pay their bills. Inflation is outpacing wages, and working people are struggling in this economy. The Trump admin needs to focus on relief for working people.
