The point of anonymous is that you can be anonymous too. You choose your actions and carry them out yourself and if other anons agree they’ll join you. It’s not a platform to demand help but to provide it. If you want to see something done, do it. It’s that simple.

Can you imagine the outrage if a Democratic Senator or AOC told a crowd, "Well, we're all gonna die," when asked about Medicaid cuts? Yeah that just happened with MAGA Senator Joni Ernst. Out of the news by tonight.

Standing up for the silent majority of voters who celebrate and treasure their right as Americans to owe $11,000 for getting rushed to the hospital on one of the worst days of their lives. It's called "being moderate" and it's how you win elections.

Trump—who dodged Vietnam—booted a ceremony honoring Vietnam Veterans from the National Mall… for his birthday spectacle. Instead of showing up for the military, he's making them show up for him. A man who never served, hijacking a moment meant for those who did.

This is beyond shameful. A voter begged Senator Joni Ernst to stop Medicaid cuts because they feared it would kill them. Her response? “Well, we all are going to die.” Public service shouldn’t come with a death sentence. 💔 The GOP has no soul. #MedicaidMatters

I’ll say this as many times as I have to. No tax cut in the history of tax cuts has ever paid for itself. Not a one.

Hey JD: Here's my dad at age about 30--a penniless war-refugee, welcomed to the USA and given a free college education--showing imported Nazi Wernher von Braun around their MIT rocket lab. THAT's how the USA got to the moon.

Republicans have prepared all kinds of talking points for officials to use when asked about the GOP’s brutal Medicaid cuts. I have a hunch “Well, we’re all going to die” — the line Iowa’s Joni Ernst used this morning — wasn’t on the list. www.msnbc.com/rachel-maddo...

In the midst of all the Trump chaos, let’s keep our eye on what matters to most Americans: adequate, accessible healthcare for all, no matter our income level, age, gender, or skin color. We need to kill this bill. Call your Senate representatives today. #pinks

The 1st major battles between Europe & Russia are happening in cyberspace with each action getting more bold than the last.

Just listened to this interview. SO glad he’s been released. His detention—in three different facilities over two months—is the stuff of nightmares. Packed conditions, cold, infrequent meals. UW lab tech Lewelyn Dixon has also been released. 🥳 These are important wins. Keep pushing back!!

Busting up big corporations and tackling Wall Street’s greed. Getting big money out of politics. Strengthening unions and fighting for higher wages. Medicare for all, paid leave, universal childcare... This is the progressive populist agenda we need in America.
