On Tuesday, Trump lied flagrantly to the American people. As expected, he listed so-called accomplishments in his first weeks in office that no one asked for, like renaming mountains and bodies of water, that do nothing to protect the public, drive down inflation, or help every child succeed.
Time for us to stay focused, play the long game, and work for a unified Democratic government – one preferably filled with more young women in positions of power. In collaboration with College Democrats of America, we’ll be mobilizing Democrats on March 20th at 1PM EST to talk about what everyone can learn from women in the political space across the generations
Have you signed up and shared the news with your friends online?
After you’ve reserved your spot to hear from Sohali Vaddula, VP of College Dems of America and Eve Levenson, Board Chair of Voters of Tomorrow — check us out on YouTube and Substack!

Why this story is important:
Cowardly Republicans are no longer facing their constituents amid a wave of deservedly furious pushback over the cuts undertaken by this administration.
Why this story is important:
Trump’s disastrous tariffs are causing the one thing markets don’t love — uncertainty. And they will RAISE costs on families, leading to higher prices for groceries, gasoline, cars, homes and other household items. Experts say Trump’s tariffs could cost families over $1,200 more per year.
Why this story is important:
This administration is fighting bird flu by encouraging people to spend more time in close contact with birds while still trying to rehire the safety inspectors who shouldn’t have gotten fired in a hurry. However, with this foolish suggestion, egg prices could still jump 40% this year.
Why this story is important:
Latest estimates show that DOGE fired over 6,000 veterans. Abandoning veterans who have risked everything for America because they are “not fit” – based on Commander In Chief Bonespur’s policies – is plainly disgraceful.
Why this story is important:
“It’s clear that the class of people who have been running the country have a lot to learn about the people whose work built the strongest economy the world has ever seen but haven’t gotten nearly enough credit for it.
Their work has dignity, and it must be valued.”
