Let’s be serious: the people in charge of this administration are not interested in merit. They've overruled the merit process to block the promotion of Black military officers - and lavish favors on people who can pay dues at Trump's private clubs or write big checks to his ballroom project.

Mayors across the country are delivering with a model of leadership that our national politics could learn a lot from. My friend Mayor @justinmbibb.bsky.social is doing exactly that in Cleveland as he begins his second term.

His actions have led to higher prices for groceries, housing, utility bills, and more. Of course the president will do anything to avoid talking about his economic failures.

Beer is more expensive because of Donald Trump's tariffs.

They cut Meals on Wheels for seniors, doctors for the VA, and food for American children - but send billions of taxpayer dollars to the Middle East for an unnecessary war of choice.

Key Republicans are starting to prepare for the inevitable: the departure of Donald Trump from American politics. So should Democrats.

Amid the chaos of national politics, the power of the local is easy to overlook. But showing up in local organizations, processes, and politics can be a powerful way to change things for the better.

Trump building himself a new gold-plated ballroom at the White House shows what he really cares about - which is definitely not you.

Why is Trump going after America's air traffic controllers, today of all days? It's one more way to distract from his decision to increase your health insurance premiums."

Americans agree that corporate money in politics has gone way too far. This year, Montanans have a chance to do something about that.
