Trump wants to give you $2,000 dividends from tariff revenue. Here’s what complicates his plan

President Donald Trump unveiled a new proposal to pay Americans at least $2,000 in dividends from his global tariff policies, which experts say caused havoc on the U.S. economy and American businesses. On Truth Social, Trump defended his tariffs, calling critics of the tax on foreign imports “FOOLS.” The president has imposed duties on goods from countries like China, Canada, Mexico, and India to pressure companies to bring manufacturing to the United States and stop the flow of fentanyl through […]

Trump’s plan to control Congress could cost these Black lawmakers their seats

A modern-day fight for voting rights is escalating in states across the country as Republican-led efforts to redraw congressional maps target Black and Latino voters to maintain President Donald Trump‘s control of Congress in 2027. If successful, several Black members of Congress would lose their seats in the process. After Trump called on Texas to give his party five more seats in the House, Republicans in the state drafted a new map—an unusual action considering redistricting is typically tied to […]

The mayor of Chicago pushed back Saturday against what he called the “out-of-control” Trump administration’s plan to surge federal officers into the nation’s third-largest city, which could take place within days. The Chicago Police Department will be barred from helping federal authorities with civil immigration enforcement or any related patrols, traffic stops and checkpoints during the surge, according to an executive order signed by Mayor Brandon Johnson.

Obama applauds Newsom’s California redistricting plan as ‘responsible’ as Texas GOP pushes new maps

Former President Barack Obama has waded into states’ efforts at rare mid-decade redistricting efforts, saying he agrees with California Gov. Gavin Newsom’s response to alter his state’s congressional maps, in the way of Texas redistricting efforts promoted by President Donald Trump aimed at shoring up Republicans’ position in next year’s elections. “I believe that Gov. Newsom’s approach is a responsible approach. He said this is going to be responsible. We’re not going to try to completely maximize it,” Obama said at a […]

Texas Democrats say they are ending a two-week walkout that stalled Republican efforts to redraw congressional districts to satisfy President Donald Trump’s demands for a greater GOP advantage.

Texas Democrats plea for donations to extend their walkout and block Trump’s redistricting plan

After leaving Texas for Illinois to prevent a legislative vote on a Republican redistricting plan, state House Democratic leader Gene Wu needed a means to project his voice — and viewpoints — to a national audience. So he tapped his campaign account to buy a microphone for news conferences. When it came to covering the hefty hotel bill for Wu and his roughly 50 colleagues, the lawmaker said he relied on money from his chamber’s Democratic Caucus. Now Texas Democrats are pleading […]

Trump to order a plan to shut down the US Education Department

 President Donald Trump plans to sign an executive order Thursday calling for the shutdown of the U.S. Education Department, according to a White House official, advancing a campaign promise to eliminate an agency that’s been a longtime target of conservatives. The official spoke on the condition of anonymity before an announcement. Trump has derided the Department of Education as wasteful and polluted by liberal ideology. However, finalizing its dismantling is likely impossible without an act of Congress, which created the department in […]

‘Anti-DEI efforts are anti-Black’: Activist Maurice Mitchell lays out the consequences of diversity rollbacks and a plan for resistance

The rollback of diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) policies in the United States is more than just a political talking point—it’s a direct attack on Black progress, says Maurice Mitchell, national director of the Working Families Party (WFP). Mitchell got his start in activism in college at Howard University, after a classmate was killed by law enforcement officers, a tragedy which inspired him to organize against police brutality. He continued to build up his organizing skills in the era of […]

House rejects Trump-backed plan on government shutdown, leaving next steps uncertain

The House rejected President-elect Donald Trump‘s new plan Thursday to fund federal operations and suspend the debt ceiling a day before a government shutdown, as Democrats refused to accommodate his sudden demands and the quick fix cobbled together by Republican leaders. In a hastily convened evening vote punctuated by angry outbursts over the self-made crisis, the lawmakers failed to reach the two-thirds threshold needed for passage — but House Speaker Mike Johnson appeared determined to try again before Friday’s midnight deadline. “We’re going to […]
