If you want to astound a younger American today, tell them that thirty years ago there was actually a years-long investigation into a president's personal business dealings and, even better, it centered on a real estate venture where he lost money.

They’re not calling it an Obamacare repeal, but don’t be fooled: the Republican tax bill slashes Medicaid and eats away at the ACA — kicking millions off their health care — all to pay for tax cuts for billionaires. It’s the Great Betrayal and we’re fighting 24/7 to stop it.

Here's something everybody should be paying attention to: Congressional Republicans are trying to weaken the Affordable Care Act and put millions of people at risk of losing their health care. Call your Senators and tell them we can't let that happen.

Castor: They told Heidy Sánchez, ‘Come in early—we want to check on your status.’ And she did the right thing… And at that ICE meeting, they took her. They took her away from her child. This is a breastfeeding mother. They flew her to another detention center in Miami, and then onto a plane to Cuba.

🚨 URGENT: Call your Members of Congress NOW. Why are ICE agents still operating with total impunity - masking their faces, concealing their identities, and terrorizing communities without oversight? Demand public hearings, sanctioned or unsanctioned. We deserve answers. We deserve accountability.

We still can’t get straight answers on why ICE agents are masked and refusing to ID themselves. On top of all that they appear to be lying about cause. Congress, do you see what’s happening? Don’t be silent! Call your Senators & Reps. Demand an investigation. ☎️ Capitol Switchboard: (202) 224-3121

According to AP, the typical pay package for S&P 500 CEOs rose to $17M last year — an increase of 9.7%. At half of the companies surveyed, it would take the median worker 192 years to make what the CEO did in one year. This is what I mean when I say the system is rigged.

Correct. Spending $45 million on a birthday party for the President, while the administration says we can’t afford Medicaid, shows just how bankrupt their priorities really are.

You can have the highest expectations and still have them miraculously surpassed. Achingly intimate yet so ambitious in scope, so full of joy and kindness even when everything’s at its darkest. Like a hug from the universe before stepping boldly into the unknown. What a film, @mikeflanaganfilm.com.

It’s striking how often hate toward Jewish Americans is met with silence. In a country that prides itself on justice and free speech, too many look away. Standing up against antisemitism shouldn’t be political—it should be moral. Indifference only fuels it.
