Danette Heredia | Staff Writer Although President-elect Trump condemns Project 2025, the country is anxious to see what the Department of Education will look like within the next four years under a conservative president. Project 2025 is a conservative manifesto overseen by the Heritage Foundation, describing Christian right-wing overhauls to nearly every aspect of the […]
Ariana Rodriguez | Staff Writer Donald Trump’s victory has left millions of Americans disheartened and for those of us who wanted a more inclusive and forward-looking America, his return feels like a slap in the face. Trump has proven time and again that he is not the president of the people—unless, of course, those people […]

Kailey Krantz | Staff Writer Thanks to the disastrous presidential debate, our confidence in either candidate is waning fast. Voting for the 2024 presidential candidate has gotten more divisive.

Robert Crohan/Staff Writer Two years ago, I was excited. Scratch that — I was giddy. Andrew Gillum, a likeable and humble progressive who was running for Florida governor, was riding off anti-Trump sentiment in the sunshine state.
