Our election system is reaching a breaking point.

Minor good news for libraries: "A Victory for IMLS as Court Blocks Trump’s Attempt to Dismantle Agency"

Trump zu dritter Amtszeit: "Ich würde es gern machen" - Trump kokettiert offen mit einer dritten Amtszeit – obwohl die US-Verfassung das klar verbietet.

If you read just one thing today, make it this:
"By not impeaching, or even starting the process of getting there, Congress sends the message that Trump is America,
and that it has acquiesced to the Constitution being replaced by Trump’s brand of corrupt evil."

Oaths Of Office, And How Everyone Not Moving To Impeach Trump Is Violating Their Own
Until very recently the only member of Congress excused from not having moved to impeach Trump was Rep. Grijalva, because until someone swore her in there was nothing she could officially do. But f…
