We’ve been told we’re “broke” 🇺🇸 for decades. And yet there’s always💰for wars, golden domes, tax breaks for the rich. “Deficit” spending means a surplus into the economy. Spending on the right things - fighting rather than exacerbating harmful inequality - is good actually.

Your bill is going to cut coverage for 11 million Americans and it’ll still cost more than universal healthcare. Healthcare is a human right, you absolute ghouls.

One of the most low-key terrifying actions of the Trump administration is the proposal to end Fannie Mae & Freddie Mac's conservatorship. It could give a corrupt payday to hedge funds & return us to an epidemic of mortgage fraud. Bob Kuttner reports: prospect.org/power/2025-0...

There are 2 previous historical cases of countries destroying their science and universities, crippling them for decades: Lysenkoism in the USSR and Nazi Germany. The Trump administration will be the 3rd. It's not just budgets but research, institutions, expertise, and training the next generation.

BREAKING: Scott Pelley just risked everything to make one thing clear: The attack on free speech isn’t coming—it’s already here. Journalists are being silenced, critics are being punished, and most of the media’s playing dead. This is state-sponsored suppression. This is dictatorship in real time.

If Joe Biden posted this Memorial Day message, the mainstream media and Republicans would say he is completely unfit to serve, with many calling for the invocation of the 25th Amendment. Because it's Trump, everyone remains silent.

Today, we remember Uvalde. We remember the 19 children and 2 teachers who were mercilessly gunned down. The kids who hid underneath their dead classmates to survive. The parents who had to submit DNA to identify their own babies. We need an assault weapons ban. Now.
