Circumstances have dramatically changed since then.   Today, we have a President who is gutting critical environmental and public health protections and prioritizing the profits of corporate polluters.
Happy 55th celebration of Earth Day – a reminder that the Earth is something we need to protect. When Earth Day was first celebrated, it was the result of bipartisan support for the planet. A shared vision for protecting the health and safety of our planet's future.
Trump’s plainly stupid tariff policies combined with Congressional Republicans’ so-called “one big, beautiful bill” for reconciliation is a plan to play favors for the wealthy. Billionaires will receive major tax cuts while working Americans, who’ll see their costs rise dramatically, foot the bill.
As he has previously stated himself: Any security professional ‘would be fired on the spot for this type of conduct and criminally prosecuted for being so reckless with this kind of information.’
It's a pattern of flagrant disregard for the rules and responsibilities entrusted to his office. Such repeated lapses in judgement not only disprove Hegseth’s claims of ‘100% operations security,’ but also actively put our servicemembers at home and abroad in harm’s way.
As we've seen in the weeks since reporting by @jeffreygoldberg.bsky.social first revealed Secretary Hegseth’s reckless violation of national security procedures, this was not an isolated incident nor was it a mistake.
Hegseth must resign as Secretary of Defense immediately. If he refuses, President Trump must remove him without delay. Every day he remains in office is a threat to American national security.
Secretary Hegseth has repeatedly shown blatant disregard for national security and the welfare of servicemembers who serve under his incompetent leadership. As I’ve said before, Hegseth must – at minimum – resign or be fired immediately. www.nytimes.com/2025/04/20/u...
Pope Francis embodied leadership grounded in humility. He called on us to protect our environment, to uplift the marginalized among us, and to leave this Earth better than we found it. As we grieve his loss, may his light continue to guide us toward compassion and our shared humanity.
The Trump administration acknowledged it wrongfully deported Kilmar Abrego Garcia. The Supreme Court ruled unanimously that the administration must bring him home. All White House efforts to defy this order are contemptuous, anti-Constitutional, and flat out anti-American.
Direct File, a prime example of making government more efficient, gave Americans an easy and free option to file their taxes. But Donald Trump cares more about his wealthy friends than working Americans so he wants to kill the program and make filing taxes harder. apnews.com/article/irs-...
"You are blasting nearly every product from nearly every country with these tariffs, Senator Tillis called it ‘a trade war on all fronts.’ It hurts our alliances, it is hurting our economy, it hurts our ability to make and keep free trade agreements." www.wcnc.com/article/mone...
"Trump is risking our economy to bring back factory jobs that pay far less than jobs in fast-growing sectors like health care, clean energy, or data science. Howard Lutnick is on TV raving about shifting Americans to work on “screwing in little screws to make iPhones.” bsky.app/profile/atru...
Lutnick: "The army of millions and millions of human beings screwing in little screws to make iPhones -- that kind of thing is going to come to America."
"Trump declared a phony national emergency and imposed tariffs on Canada to punish them for ‘fentanyl smuggling.’ Our own government says smuggling at the northern border is less than 1% of our fentanyl problem. How does Canada get out of tariffs for something we admit they’re not doing?"
"Trump hinted that maybe if countries lower tariffs on us he might drop tariffs on them. But Vietnam massively cut their tariffs on the U.S. to appease Trump ahead of his announcement. We you slapped a 46% tariff on them anyway. So what are the Vietnamese supposed to do?"
