We are not asking for a favor. We are demanding elected officials do the job the Constitution gives them.

†rump told the country he was fighting for them. What he was actually doing was building a machine, assembling the full weight of the federal government into a weapon aimed not at America's enemies, but at America's own people. This is the documented record of how he did it, agency by agency, lie by lie, and with a blueprint that his own people wrote.

The United States Constitution is being dismantled. Not quietly, not gradually, and not by accident. It is being stripped to its bones by a political party and a regime that have decided the Bible outranks it, that God supersedes it, and that the American people have no right to question either. When the bones are bare, they intend to cremate them. What you can do.

In eight days, †rump's regime and a captured Supreme Court dismantled sixty years of voting rights protections, allowed Republican-led states to carve up majority-Black districts, and set in motion a nationwide assault on Black political power not seen since the end of Reconstruction.

What happened to voting rights last week was not an isolated event. It was a continuation of a documented pattern, and the LGBTQ+ community, along with every American who believes in constitutional equality, needs to understand that pattern clearly and urgently, because the next chapter is already being written.

IÇE is deporting American citizens, shooting Americans in the street, and calling it enforcement. Here is the documented record of who has been harmed and what you can do about it.

The answer is not the 25th Amendment. It was never the 25th Amendment. The answer is in Article I of the Constitution, it has been there since 1787, and it is called impeachment. Congress has the power. Congress has the grounds. Congress has the obligation. What Congress does not have — what it has been conspicuously lacking — is the spine to use it. That changes when the people demand it. So let's be clear about what we're demanding, and why.

Let us be precise. This is not a blog about immigration policy. This is not a blog about crime statistics. This is not a blog about border security or economic anxiety or any of the other euphemisms Amerikkka uses when it does not want to say the word out loud... Racism.

If you've been watching the news lately — the No Kings protests, the mail-in voting executive order, the war in Iran, the treason charges being debated in legal circles — you may be feeling what a lot of people are feeling right now: the urgency to do something, combined with the exhaustion of not knowing where to start. Tonight is a place to start. Join us on Zoom for Together Across America.

A note from longtime organizer and friend Robin McGehee — who has spent decades on the front lines of justice, from fighting for marriage equality to marching on Washington with the National Equality March.

In 2012, a small group of political scientists at the University of Gothenburg in Sweden set out to build the most rigorous global dataset on democracy ever constructed. They called it the Varieties of Democracy Institute, or V-Dem. At the time, global democracy was near its historic peak. Their colleagues called them alarmists. The data, they said, was exaggerating the risk. Democracy was fine. The data was not exaggerating.

The free press is not a partisan issue. It is the infrastructure of democracy, and it is being dismantled, right now, in real time and in plain sight. There is a moment in every authoritarian takeover when people look back and ask: why did no one say anything? Why did no one sound the alarm before it was too late?

The Kids Online Safety Act — KOSA — along with a package of roughly a dozen related "child safety" bills, is quietly advancing through the House with bipartisan support. And while the name evokes images of legislators shielding children from predators, the actual mechanics of these laws tell a very different story. This is not a child safety package. It is the most sweeping assault on anonymous speech and civil liberties in the history of the American internet.

On February 26, 2026, approximately 1,700 transgender Kansans woke up criminals — not because of anything they had done, but only because of who they are.

Right now, if a state or local police officer violates your constitutional rights, you can sue them under 42 U.S.C. § 1983. But if a federal officer – from ICE, CBP, FBI, or another agency – does the same thing, your path to justice is far narrower and often blocked by judge-made limits and broad immunities. That gap leaves real people with life-altering harms and no meaningful remedy. This is where we come in.

Romania's twentieth-century journey reveals how quickly democracy unravels when nationalism, economic crisis, and extremism converge. This is more than a distant history lesson. It's a vivid mirror reflecting pressures familiar to Americans across the political spectrum today.

Representative Burlison, We, your constituents from Missouri’s 7th Congressional District, submit this formal Notice following your public rejection of impeachment for President Donald Trump and your continued refusal to use constitutional remedies in the face of executive abuses.

Since Donold †®*mp's January 2025 inauguration, U.S. 'immigration enforcement' has claimed over 40 lives. This includes 49 documented IÇE custody deaths in 2025—36 named plus 13 unnamed, the deadliest year since 2004—plus 9 more through February 2026. These tragedies span Krome Processing Center fatalities, December spikes, and Minneapolis raid killings of U.S. citizens amid agent impunity. At least #45LivesLost...

On a cold January morning in Minneapolis, an IÇE bullet ended Renee Nicole Good’s life. She died in her SUV on a residential street, blocks from a school, after federal agents swarmed her neighborhood in the name of “immigration enforcement.” Within hours, career prosecutors did what they are trained to do when government power kills a citizen: they moved to open a civil‑rights investigation and obtained a warrant to search her car. Then Washington told them to stop.
