Just a random reminder that trickle-down economics was invented by conservatives in the 1980s to justify massive tax cuts for the wealthy and corporations. It’s been nothing short of a disaster.

FOX News is falsely claiming Democrats “stormed” an ICE facility in Newark after Ras Baraka was arrested. In truth, Reps. McIver and Menendez had a scheduled inspection. Baraka was outside waiting when ICE agents arrested him for being on the property. MAGA spin fuels this kind of disinformation

First Germany said NO to fascism and Trumpism. Then Canada said NO to fascism and Trumpism. And now Australia has said NO to fascism and Trumpism. The people of the world are speaking with their votes and we want democracy not authoritarianism. #SheShed
