"There are only 98 days until the midterm election. For months, there has been speculation about what the deciding issue will be this year. Surprisingly, it looks like the one big issue in this year’s midterms may be one we least expected: data centers."
The laws ensuring rights for children with disabilities and special needs in school were passed by overwhelming, bipartisan majorities. But instead of trying to change the law, Trump and his GOP enablers just don't enforce it. bit.ly/Click-2-Listen YouTu.be/m03kbe8Qo-0
The GOP love school vouchers and hate public schools. One reason is to dilute the power of teachers’ unions in politics. But they are destroying what creates a cohesive society. Oh, and voucher schools aren’t really better. bit.ly/Click-2-Listen YouTu.be/m03kbe8Qo-0
When Whitney Houston sang the line, “the children are our future,” she was right. @RWeingarten.bsky.social explains how Trump and the GOP Congress are throwing our future away with their war on children and the Department of Education. bit.ly/Click-2-Listen youtu.be/m03kbe8Qo-0
The One Big Beautiful (Ugly) Bill cut taxes for the rich. To pay for those tax cuts for the rich, Trump got rid of the plans that made it easier to repay student debt. As @RWeingarten.bsky.social explains. bit.ly/Click-2-Listen YouTu.be/m03kbe8Qo-0
We hear a lot about Trump’s authoritarian playbook. Masked ICE agents. Weaponization of the DOJ to harass enemies of the regime. But AFT President @RWeingarten.bsky.social talks about a less obvious, but key part of the plan. bit.ly/Click-2-Listen YouTu.be/m03kbe8Qo-0

Nancy Pelosi and Ben Wikler with big crowd at Politics & Prose. Ben talks about his new book on my podcast today. The Bill Press Pod. bit.ly/Click-2-Listen YouTu.be/Yy4x-GR_c2M
One of the great things about Ben's new book is he lays out a plan for today, tomorrow, and off into the future. Here's his plan for 2029. (And we should judge candidates in 2026 and 2028 for their willingness to go big to save democracy.) bit.ly/Click-2-Listen YouTu.be/Yy4x-GR_c2M
@BenWikler.bsky.social says doing the work of democracy is not like eating your spinach. It can actually make you happy. It takes years of sustained work to win the fight for democracy. But we can win. And boy, is it satisfying. bit.ly/Click-2-Listen YouTu.be/Yy4x-GR_c2M
Do not despair. @BenWikler.bsky.social, as Democratic State Chair, was instrumental in rescuing Wisconsin from the Right-wing clutches of Scott Walker, sees the makings of our national escape from Trump in the tremendous grass-roots energy of Democrats. bit.ly/Click-2-Listen YouTu.be/Yy4x-GR_c2M

"There are some who believe Lindsey Graham represented the best of Washington. I think they're wrong. In fact, I think Graham represented the worst of Washington, because he believed in nothing. He was willing to sell out everything he'd once believed in." bit.ly/My-Column
"In writing Graham’s story, it is important to tell the truth. Yes, he served his country well, in the military, and in the House and Senate. But then he became Trump’s wing man. Trump would not be where he is today without him."
