They want you afraid. They want you isolated. They want you passive.

Millions of us. Together. Unafraid.

The jump in gas and heating oil prices is just the start, wait until the "transportation surcharges" start to hit on just about everything.

At every USL game this weekend, USL players paused play for 60 seconds in a powerful show of solidarity.

They’re united and ready to fight for the fair contract they deserve.

As the players stand still, America’s unions stand with them.

Trump told us who he was in 2012. Will we finally believe him today? Trump has always been an election denier. He has always vilified voting. He has always started with lies, escalated to the courts, and ultimately embraced violent rhetoric.

One of the most important things I have written in a while. I hope you read, learn and share. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/trum...

Anyone who thinks oil is coming down in price for years is fooling themselves. The US is taking out a major oil producer. Who's making money from this? Oil companies

When are we going to stop oil wars?

Get ready for gas prices to be really high for a decade, at least

I'm going to stay home, more

The fact that Donald Trump is going to try to subvert the 2026 elections doesn't mean he will be successful. We have shown before that we can fight back in court and win. The key is that we must educate everyone about what is going to happen and what they can do as well to defend democracy.

Last year Trump slashed funds for healthcare & food programs. Now he's spending $1 BILLION PER DAY on his war of choice in Iran.

While millions here at home can't afford their basic needs, Trump is spending billions on a regime change war that's making us less safe.

SEVEN. That’s how many strikes hit near the Iranian girls’ school.

Video shows a tomahawk missile hitting a building next to the school. The kind of β€œprecision” you get when an incompetent administration runs a war on outdated intelligence.

Don’t look away β€”we should all see the deadly destruction

The iPhone 17E is good, but you probably shouldn’t buy it At least we got magnets this time.

The main thing to know about the 17E is that the iPhone 17 exists, it costs $200 more, and it comes with a long list of upgrades. And if it’s within your means to put down that extra money, you should.

Wahls: The war in Iran is going to be devastating for farm states like Iowa. You mentioned diesel β€” that is what the vast majority of farm machines, like tractors or combines, run on. And the cost of oil not only has a huge impact on fuel costs, it also has a huge impact on other farm inputs

Toxic rain mixed with oil rains down on Tehran as expanding war threatens new global shock "I am sitting at home with a headache and my mouth tastes bitter," one resident of the Iranian capital told NBC News.

In the Iranian capital, authorities say Israeli strikes hit a number of oil and gas facilities in and around the city. A cloud of smoke blanketed the area to such an extent that noon looked more like 10 p.m., according to residents.

This is going to be hard for some people to accept, but I think the US government is lying to us about the state of negotiations between itself and Iran.
