Sixty-six thousand people got their voice back this year.

Only 34% of Americans approve of the job Donald Trump is doing as president. That is not a political talking point. That is a number — and it tells a story about where this country stands.

They came with no weapons. No orders. No guarantee it would matter. They simply came — more than 100,000 of them — and stood in the street.

This past Saturday, something remarkable happened in every corner of the country — and it didn't come from Washington.

Only 55% of Americans are confident that this November's midterm elections will be conducted fairly and accurately. That means nearly half the country is heading into one of the most consequential elections in a generation with real doubt about whether their vote will count.

They came looking for a fight. What they found was a community that refused to move.

In the 1950s, Senator Joseph McCarthy built a career out of one word: "communist." He used it to end careers, ruin reputations, and silence dissent — often with no evidence at all, just the accusation itself. Seventy years later, the word is back.

More than half of Americans now view the Supreme Court unfavorably. That is not a blip. That is a verdict.

She was beaten unconscious on a bridge named for a Ku Klux Klan leader, for daring to march and demand the vote. Four months later, she stood in the room as the president who saw the photograph of her lying on that bridge signed the law she'd nearly died for.

More than half of young women in America are getting health information from social media influencers — not because they want to, but increasingly because the alternatives are harder to reach, harder to trust, or harder to afford.

She was told to march at the back of the parade, out of sight, so Southern suffragists wouldn't feel uncomfortable marching next to a Black woman. She said no.

A home that cost $269,600 in 2019 runs $350,000 today. Incomes for young adults climbed just 9% over that same stretch. It's no surprise that a supermajority of Americans — 87% — say buying a home is harder for young people now than it was for their parents.

They had survived two civil wars, systemic atrocities, and displacement on a scale that defied comprehension. What they had never surrendered was the belief that one day, they would be free.

Last week, Chicago threw a party. And the whole country was invited.

In 2018, most Republicans agreed: Americans should be able to vote early or absentee without having to give a reason. Fifty-seven percent of them said so.

They were erasing slavery. Erasing civil rights. Erasing the history of what was done to Indigenous peoples. Erasing climate science.
