You can't call immigrants lazy moochers looking for government handouts and then round them up at Home Depots where you know they are looking for work. You can't say immigrants don't follow the rules and then round them up in courthouses where they are following the rules. Get your lies straight.

If we can afford to give another $664 billion in tax breaks to the top 1% and spend over $1 trillion on the Pentagon, we can afford health care for the working people of this country.

Most of our economic indicators come from the Federal Government, which is now full of mendacious sycophants. Trump told his Administration to lie with these statistics. Out-of-work Americans with hungry children will think unemployment at record lows and no inflation.

I am really astounded at how calm everyone is about the GOP putting a 500 billion dollar cut for Medicare in the new tax bill.

This is at least the third time this week that top Trump officials have launched personal attacks on Senators while testifying (after RFK Jr. attacking Murray and Rubio attacking Van Hollen). This is very unusual and likely a deliberate strategy rather than individuals just losing their cool.

GOP tax bill on track to add more than $2.5 trillion to U.S. deficit. And, they are cutting Medicaid and food stamps, even with this huge increase in federal deficit, all to pay for a tax break for the wealthy.

Be more like Marc Elias. He exemplifies what it means to be a “fighter.” It’s that attitude of acknowledging the fear, flipping the source of it bird, and then walking toward it, 100% invested in victory. There are only a handful of people in politics right now that inspire me. Marc is #1

I think we could use a simple boycott with a quid-pro-quo. i.e. boycott Amazon and Apple until they agree to show and list the cost of tariffs in all invoices and payment data as a separate line item. It will have a clear start ( June 1, 2025) and a clear end.
