Medicare for all, paid leave, universal childcare. Busting up big corporations and tackling Wall Street’s greed. Getting big money out of politics. Supporting unions and fighting for higher wages. If Dems want to win back working people, this is the agenda they must support.

Federal agents thought they could stay at LA-area hotels. Communities are trying to make sure they can’t. When feds checked into a Pasadena hotel, they didn’t expect 100s of protesters and a day laborers’ band, the tactic that kicked them out is spreading. lapublicpress.org/2025/06/fede...

Instead of CUTTING Social Security benefits, Congress should INCREASE payments by $200 per month and extend the solvency of the Social Security program by 75 YEARS. How? Make the wealthiest Americans pay a fairer share. I’ve got a bill to get it done.

Moulton: I have heard that a lot of officers are considering resigning their commissions because they question whether this is constitutional—whether they’re violating their oath to protect and defend the Constitution, not the president, by carrying out these orders. These are active discussions

When Trump's Treasury Secretary worked for George Soros, he would always rail against the deficit. Now he's pushing to blow up the deficit with tax breaks for billionaires like him while kicking 16 million people off their health care. I asked him what changed.

Remember: Almost all of us are the descendants of immigrants who fled persecution, or were brought to America under duress, or sought better lives for themselves and their descendants. Politicians who stoke fear and hatred over immigration want you to forget this. Do not.

This is from Farron Balanced.. When the Convicted FElon mobilized the California National Guard he did it in a way that the Federal government doesn't have to provide food or lodging for these soldiers. Instead of activating them for 30 days rotation, he only gives 29 days rotation. 👇

Every flashbang could instead be a meal for a poor kid. Every hotel room for a National Guardsman deployed to fire at our neighbors could house a homeless vet. Every "less-than-lethal" bullet pulled from a journalist's eye could be already needed healthcare for anyone else. All of this is a choice.
