“[Trump's] detached from reality, he’s deranged. He’s a narcissistic sociopath. He’s flailing, he’s floundering. He’s screwed up this war, he’s screwed up the economy. His poll numbers are dropping to the low 30's. He can’t take the blame so he wants to start chopping away at the people around him.”

We got hit with a community standards violation for posting links asking you to contact businesses about the Forest Service dismantling. But it worked Patagonia listened. Because of the issue on FB, we’re building a dedicated website for that kind of action. We’re hoping to have it live by Monday!

Trump and Washington Republicans refused to extend the Affordable Care Act’s enhanced premium tax credits. Now that they’ve expired, many Americans are paying much higher premiums and delaying doctor’s visits – if they can afford health insurance at all.

Obamacare Customers Paying $6,000 a Year Doubled in 2026
The share of Affordable Care Act insurance customers in plans that cost more than $6,000 a year doubled, a sign of the squeeze on household budgets after Congress let Covid-era assistance expire.

The U.S. economy lost 92,000 jobs in February. A record number of Americans are withdrawing from their 401ks to cover expenses. Americans owe $18.5 trillion in debt — an historic high. Meanwhile, the wealth of America's 935 billionaires soared by $1.5 trillion in 2025. “Golden Age” for whom?

This is blatantly illegal. A president can’t go into the oil business and then decide where to spend the money. We are completely untethered from our founding document with a lawless president and a Republican Congress which has abdicated all Constitutional authority.

The level of pettiness here is almost unbelievable. According to sources close to The White House who spoke to WaPo, Donald Trump reportedly soured on supporting Venezuelan opposition leader María Corina Machado after she accepted a Nobel Peace Prize instead of insisting it be awarded to him.

As of this year, CalRx insulin pens are now available for just $11 each — and copays for a 20-day supply are capped at $35. No one should have to choose between paying the bills and receiving life-saving medicine.

It's an old and obvious pattern. An unpopular president - failing on the economy and losing his grip on power at home - decides to launch a war for regime change abroad. The American people don’t want to “run” a foreign country while our leaders fail to improve life in this one.

Moulton: "When we had briefings on Venezuela, we asked, 'Are you going to invade the country?' We were told no. 'Do you plan to put troops on the ground?' We were told no. 'Do you intend regime change in VZ?' We were told no. So in a sense, we have been briefed, we've just been completely lied to"
