Judge blocks Trump’s election executive order, siding with Democrats who called it overreach

A federal judge on Friday blocked President Donald Trump’s attempt to overhaul elections in the U.S., siding with a group of Democratic state attorneys general who challenged the effort as unconstitutional. The Republican president’s March 25 executive order sought to compel officials to require documentary proof of citizenship for everyone registering to vote for federal elections, accept only mailed ballots received by Election Day and condition federal election grant funding on states adhering to the new ballot deadline. The attorneys general had argued the […]

Kamala Harris, top Democrats slam Trump officials for handcuffing and removing Sen. Alex Padilla at explosive press event

Democrats swiftly and forcefully condemned the Trump administration after an explosive encounter at a press conference in Los Angeles on Thursday that resulted in U.S. Senator Alex Padilla being forcibly removed and cuffed by Department of Homeland Security agents. “United States Senator Alex Padilla was representing the millions of Californians who are demanding answers to this Administration’s actions in Southern California. This is a shameful and stunning abuse of power,” said former Vice President Kamala Harris. Padilla was cuffed and […]

Black Democrats who attended Harvard and Candace Owens agree on one thing: Trump’s campus crackdown goes too far

It’s a rare moment in American politics when ultra-conservative personality Candace Owens and Democrats are on the opposing side of Donald Trump. The political firebrand publicly condemned the president’s crusade against Harvard University and other college campuses; Trump has threatened to rescind billions in federal grants if the institution did not agree to a list of demands that Harvard described as going “beyond the power of the federal government.” As Owens put it, Trump’s battle with Harvard–which has escalated to […]

George Clooney, the Hollywood star whose New York Times op-ed inflamed calls for President Joe Biden to drop out of the 2024 election against Donald Trump, says looking ahead, he believes Maryland Gov. Wes Moore could be the Democratic Party’s best chance at taking back the White House in 2028. During a wide-ranging interview with CNN’s Jake Tapper, Clooney reflected on his decision to write his July 2024 column, “I Love Joe Biden. But We Need a New Nominee,” which […]

Democrats say Trump’s tariffs could harm medical supply chains, warn people could die

Democrats are continuing to sound the alarm about President Donald Trump’s retaliatory global tariffs, warning Trump administration officials that they will severely impact the medical supply chain industry and potentially cost lives. In a letter to U.S. Trade Representative Jamieson Greer and Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick, 26 Democrats in the House of Representatives said the tariffs, which have already sparked a trade war with ally and adversary countries alike, are “reckless” and will have “devastating consequences” for Americans who rely […]

Democrats call out DEI ‘irony’ amid Trump administration’s controversy on Signal

The Trump administration is being ridiculed for its focus on eliminating DEI as it struggles to explain away what is likely a national security threat after a journalist received texts on the Signal messaging app from Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth about an imminent military attack on an American target in Yemen. On Monday, Jeffrey Goldsberg, editor-in-chief of The Atlantic, revealed that two hours before U.S. military fired missiles at the Iran-backed rebels group known as the Houthis, he received messages […]

Democrats clashed over their shutdown strategy. But the party’s identity crisis runs far deeper

Democrats have been sniping at each other in public since Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer helped pass a Republican spending bill that prevented a government shutdown. But the divisions in their party hardly began there. For months, Democrats have been struggling to coalesce behind a political strategy as they confront President Donald Trump and the Republican majorities in the House and the Senate. Behind closed doors at party retreats, think tank meetings and strategy sessions, Democrats have been having tense and searching conversations about ideology, […]

Is the Working Families Party an alternative to Democrats? This leader says voters don’t have to choose.

For many Black voters, the political landscape can often feel like a frustrating binary: Democrats or Republicans. But what if there’s another way? Maurice Mitchell, national director of the Working Families Party (WFP), believes there is—and that voters don’t necessarily have to choose between supporting Democrats and embracing a progressive third-party movement. In an exclusive interview with TheGrio’s Natasha S. Alford, Mitchell broke down the role of the WFP, its relationship with the Democratic Party, and why more voters are […]

House Republicans unveil bill to avoid shutdown and they’re daring Democrats to oppose it

 House Republicans unveiled a spending bill Saturday that would keep federal agencies funded through Sept. 30, pushing ahead with a go-it-alone strategy that seems certain to spark a major confrontation with Democrats over the contours of government spending. The 99-page bill would provide a slight boost to defense programs while trimming nondefense programs below 2024 budget year levels. That approach is likely to be a nonstarter for most Democrats who have long insisted that defense and nondefense spending move in the same […]
