Yes, you got it. Exactly!

Rupert Murdoch and Ronald Reagan will share their place in FASCISM.......REMEMBER.......

We made this ad in late September of last year to try to salvage Kamala's econ message. At the time we knew the $50T was outdated since it was from a 2020 report. Rand Corp updated the study. It's *$79 trillion* now. Welp. www.rand.org/pubs/working...

Gutting Medicaid isn't just unpopular, it's inhumane. Cuts to the program would lead to 10.3M people losing Medicaid coverage and up to 8.6M people going uninsured. #SaveOurMedicaid

Colorado’s Governor is not going to get gifted a $400M luxury jet from Qatar. But could the State of Wyoming give him the $325 Chevy Captiva Sport (doesn’t run, needs engine) I found on AutoTrader in Cheyenne? Let’s look at Colorado’s gift laws! #copolitics

If Trump's "big, beautiful" reconciliation bill goes through, 13.7 million people will lose their health insurance & even more will become underinsured. Make no mistake, thousands of low-income & working class Americans will die unnecessarily if it passes. We must not allow it.

🚨 HUGE FLIP: Democrat John Ewing Jr. just turned Omaha blue—defeating the longest-serving GOP mayor in the country and becoming the city’s first Black mayor in history.

I.D.I.C. Infinite Diversity in Infinite Combinations.

What is happening in Gaza will be a permanent stain on the world's collective conscience. History will never forget how our government was complicit in enabling and sustaining this ongoing humanitarian disaster. We must end funding for the Netanyahu war machine.

Trump is accepting a $400M jet from Qatar, paid for and upgraded by U.S. taxpayers, before transferring it to his presidential library. That’s not public service—it’s corruption. A foreign monarchy giving him a flying palace is wrong, plain and simple.

This is what oligarchy is about. While planning massive cuts to Medicaid, the Republicans are proposing to provide another $235 billion in tax breaks to the top 0.2% of households through an increase in the estate tax exemption. The very rich get richer. The poor lose health care. Outrageous.

Republicans and big insurance companies like to call Medicare for All “radical.” What’s so radical about having a universal health care system like every other developed country in the world? The American people deserve a health care system that actually WORKS.

Truly worrisome.

I can’t imagine a place I’d rather be less.

Why is Wall Street Pete so opposed to medical marijuana? In 2020 and 2022, he and his billionaire family poured hundreds of thousands of dollars into defeating medical marijuana ballot initiatives. 🧵

I’m coming up on one of those big birthdays next month…but I’m a firm believer that age only matters if you’re a cheese, and it’s never too late to have a happy childhood. @nextavenue.bsky.social wanted to get my thoughts, and Sabrina Crews did a great job with the interview:

Carl Sagan when asked, "Are you a Socialist?"

Don’t let them fool you.

Are we the baddies?

Are you watching @maddow.msnbc.com tonight? Cause….wow.

Got a new one today when the press secretary accused him of being a "human trafficker" just absolutely out of thin air!

If I ran against Pete Ricketts... We would start out TIED on day one. The mechanic versus the multibillionaire.
