Trump officials deny Democrats access to Education Department, fueling backlash

Democratic members of Congress were left astounded and incensed on Friday after they were denied entry at the Department of Education headquarters in Washington, D.C. The group was attempting to schedule a meeting with its acting secretary about President Donald Trump‘s plans to shutter the 45-year-old agency. It was a dramatic scene outside the Education Department’s front entrance as a federal employee identifying himself as “security” faced questions and outrage from Democratic Reps. Maxine Waters, D-Calif., Maxwell Frost, D-Fla., Jahana […]

Can Democrats’ message on DEI convince white women to dump Trump?

As Democrats have pushed back against President Donald Trump‘s executive actions on eliminating diversity, equity, and inclusion and their potentially far-reaching implications, some leaders are emphasizing the attacks on DEI will impact not just Black, Latino, and LGBTQ+ Americans but also women — namely white women. Following Trump’s Thursday press conference, where he essentially blamed the deadly plane and helicopter collision near D.C.’s airport on DEI, Congressional Black Caucus chairwoman Rep. Yvette Clarke, D-N.Y., in a statement last week noted […]

Democrats are splintered on immigration and how to respond to Trump

When Donald Trump took office in 2017 with promises to crack down on immigration, he was met by widespread protests that filled churches, airports and union halls as Democratic lawmaker vowed to fight the new Republican president at every turn. The second time around, Democrats helped send an immigration bill to his desk during his first week in office. Stinging from election losses, the Democratic Party has so far been splintered in responding to Trump’s push against illegal immigration. Yet the party’s soul searching […]

Senate Democrats join Republicans in voting to advance bill to detain migrants accused of crimes

Newly in the minority, Democrats voted with Republicans on Thursday to advance legislation that would require federal authorities to detain unauthorized immigrants who have been accused of certain crimes — signaling that they will try and find spots to work with President-elect Donald Trump while simultaneously trying to block much of his agenda. Senate Democratic Leader Chuck Schumer and most other Democrats voted to proceed with the legislation, advancing the bill 84-9. Trump and Republicans have pushed the bill and made it a […]

Democrats’ outgoing chair says Trump’s win forces party to reassess how it reaches voters

ATLANTA (AP) — As he concludes his time as chairman of the Democratic National Committee, Jaime Harrison is downplaying his party’s November loss to President-elect Donald Trump and arguing Democrats avoided even greater losses than parties in power have faced around the world.

Calls for Democrats to abandon ‘woke’ identity politics alienates Black and marginalized groups, some fear

In the weeks following major defeats in the 2024 elections, the Democratic Party continues to self-reflect about where they went wrong with the American electorate and how to win back voters.  Some within the party have suggested that President-elect Donald Trump’s decisive win, particularly among non-college-educated and working-class voters, is a lesson for Democrats to do away with supporting “woke” policies and identity politics because it somehow alienates working-class voters.  The suggestion has caused clear divisions within the party, particularly […]

Democrats still don’t agree on the seriousness of their political problem after election defeat

NEW YORK (AP) — Nearly a month after a devastating election loss that exposed cracks in the very foundation of their party, Democrats remain deeply divided over the extent of their political problem — or even if they have one. A number of Democratic leaders are downplaying the strength of Donald Trump’s victory over Vice President Kamala Harris as the inevitable result of an inflation-fueled anti-incumbent backlash that shaped elections worldwide. But others are convinced that the Democratic Party is facing an acute crisis […]
