The Administration talks a big game about supporting regenerative agriculture. So why are they slashing the very programs that support those practices? This isn’t some kind of “woke agenda.” It’s what farming in 2026 looks like as farmers grapple with the impacts of climate change and rising costs.

Americans are being CRUSHED by soaring energy prices. What are Republicans doing about it? Sabotaging clean energy that would help lower your bills—including using $2 BILLION in taxpayer money to stop offshore wind projects already in progress. WHAT!?!? Their priorities are COMPLETELY twisted.
Late last night, Olivia Andre returned home to Maine. After 6 long months locked away in Dilley in violation of federal law, she is finally reunited with her family, friends, and a community that welcomes her with open arms.
Crazy week ahead. Republicans refuse to negotiate on DHS—but have a bill to allow lead bullets for hunting. PRIORITIES! Meanwhile, the FCC Chair is outrageously threatening to revoke broadcast licenses. Democrats are demanding accountability—on this insane war, the Epstein files, DHS, all of it.
The Trump Admin paid a company $1 billion to cancel its offshore wind leases. They cited “national security” + “environmental” concerns. Literally days later, they removed a critical endangered species protection to allow unfettered drilling in the Gulf of Mexico. Just mindboggling hypocrisy.
Apparently Republicans are fine with slashing the EPA by 20%, cutting water infrastructure funding, and eliminating cultural programs in our communities. As long as Trump gets his ridiculous ballroom and triumphal arch! This isn’t “fiscal responsibility.” It’s partisan BS—and completely tone-deaf.
In 1978, Congress created the Endangered Species Committee, giving it the authority to loosen protections laid out in the 1973 Endangered Species Act under extraordinary circumstances. Now, Pete Hegseth and Doug Burgum actually believe it’s their right to “play God” with endangered species.
On Rachel Carson’s birthday, it’s important to not only honor her extraordinary legacy, but to remember that many of the battles she was fighting are still being fought today—especially around chemicals in our environment. Happy Birthday, Rachel. May your genius and vision continue to guide us.
Get a load of this. Secretary Rollins just said “glyphosate is safe” … really? The cancer-causing chemical that Bayer has literally spent BILLIONS on fighting and settling lawsuits is “safe”? Thank you @repmcgovern.bsky.social for holding her feet to the fire on this.
The right loves to slap the word “socialism” on anything that helps working people. Public schools. Health care. Basic services people rely on every day. The government has a role to play in making sure the system actually works for working people, not just billionaires and corporations.
In his address yesterday, King Charles III underscored a basic truth: no one who holds great power should be above the system they govern. That principle built this country. I hope that message isn’t lost on anyone here, though it’ll go over the head of the person who needs to hear it most, I fear.
