Senator Gillibrand called on Al Franken to resign. I think she should resign for falsely smearing Zohran Mamdani as a terrorist. He has never invoked a ‘global jihad’. This is a nasty, Islamophobic racist smear from a sitting Dem senator.

Sen. Elissa Slotkin (D-MI) unveiled her new "Economic War Plan" where she called for the elimination of all corporate PAC money in politics. Ending dark money in politics has been a long standing goal of progressives and they seem to have found an ally in Slotkin on this issue.

Part of my Economic War Plan means the government shouldn’t give tax breaks to big companies and then have to pay again to keep their employees from going hungry. That’s double-dipping—it makes the taxpayer pay twice for corporate greed. And it’s got to stop.

The Neanderthals who now oversee U.S. health policy — the proverbial lunatics running the asylum — are moving aggressively to scale back access to vaccines, particularly among children. More people will get sick & more will die as a result of this direction.

The US already has a shamefully high maternal mortality rate, and that rate is more than twice as high for black women than US women as a whole. If the MAGA-GOP were really a pro-life party, they'd care about that. www.commonwealthfund.org/publications...

Walmart and Home Depot have decided to cooperate with ICE. 🤬 Both companies are allowing ICE agents to come onto their premises to arrest innocent shoppers. If you weren’t boycotting them before, you can add them to your list!!

Our economy SHRANK this year. It takes a special kind of stupid to take 12 consecutive quarters of positive economic growth and make it go negative. Under the economic policies of Donald Trump and Republicans, America is now in decline.
