This is not about "left" vs "right" anymore — and it hasn't been for a long time. The oligarchy feels safer if people split along the old “left” vs.“right” battle lines, so they won’t notice they’re being shafted and won't join together to fight back.

Mitch McConnell has a net worth of up to $52 million, and has had high quality government-financed healthcare for decades. Losing your healthcare, losing your loved ones, losing your life, isn’t something people should be told “get over it.”

ICE in just a few weeks has transformed itself into the closest thing that the US has ever had to a “secret police,” with more seemingly culturally in common with the Klan nightriders of Reconstruction than their federal agency brethren like the FBI or ATF. www.doomsdayscenario.co/p/ice-believ...

Vance goes all the way out to CA for a photo op stunt and calls their latino US senator “Jose” when his name is Alex. He sure did make headlines, maybe not the ones he had in mind. Another masterful performance.

BREAKING: In a unanimous decision, a federal court of appeals has ruled that Louisiana's law requiring the Ten Commandments to be displayed in all public school classrooms is unconstitutional. We’ll keep saying it: Public schools are not Sunday schools.

When you ditch your allies, nobody listens to you, not friend, not foe. 🇺🇦Ukraine is on the right side of history. Trump has been a tool for Putin. Everybody knows that. He needs to back Ukraine as it defends its homeland. How would Americans feel if Mexico invaded Texas which it once owned?

So damn proud of these kids for their courage. 💥 Hundreds of Milford, MA high schoolers walked out in protest today after ICE detained their classmate Marcelo Gomes Da Silva. Detained on his way to volleyball practice. Illegally. These students aren’t backing down—they’re rising up. #OnYourSide
