Tax the rich!

10 years ago, a Supreme Court that was starkly different from our current one made marriage equality the law of the land. Today it seems like a no-brainer that people should be allowed to marry the person they love. But not long ago, this was seen as a radical idea. www.youtube.com/watch?v=ho4Y...

We’re in the second Gilded Age just like the first — when America’s wealth was in the hands of a few, money corrupted politics, and working people were abused and exploited. It can be easy to feel discouraged, but the first Gilded Age teaches us lessons on how we can fight back.

In the time you spend watching this video, Jeff Bezos will earn more than what the majority of full-time American workers earn in a year. Say it with me: Tax the rich.

This book is riveting and so, so infuriating. It follows 5 families in Atlanta who are struggling to remain housed and paints deeply compassionate portraits of each unit. It reads almost like a novel but is outstanding journalism

In 2021, ProPublica obtained a vast cache of IRS information showing how billionaires like Jeff Bezos and Elon Musk pay little in income tax compared to their massive wealth — sometimes, even nothing.

Here's your periodic reminder that political centrism is nonsense. There is no middle ground between democracy and oligarchy.

Gaza, Palestine, anyone?

Another tantrum. Trump is now accusing a federal judge of “lawless defiance” because the judge refused to greenlight deporting eight migrants to South Sudan, a country they’ve never lived in, without a chance to argue they’d face torture.

what federal agents did to a father of three Marines while he was cutting grass in Orange County on Sunday has happened in some form daily — and deliberately — all over Los Angeles for 18 days.

3 years ago today SCOTUS overturned Roe. They took away a right that gave women autonomy and spared millions of children from being born into trauma, neglect, or systems that fail them. This was never about protecting life. It was about power. I stand in solidarity with all women. ✊

Iraq 2.0 brought to you by the 'No More Wars' dictator #fucktrump

NEW: A federal judge ordered the release of Kilmar Abrego Garcia, citing insufficient evidence from the Justice Department that he posed a danger while awaiting trial on immigrant smuggling charges. From: @jaknutson.bsky.social‬

That one person can drag us into a war without consulting or even notifying Congress, or our allies, or fully explaining to the American people why this is necessary, is absolutely bonkers. Reminder that Congress has the power to stop all of this. Where the hell are they? Hello?

The final 2 minutes of the President telling us he committed us to war with Iran. He’s a rambling fool. The final 10 seconds tell a story.

How did this imbecile become POTUS not once, but twice???

@warren.senate.gov @markey.senate.gov this needs to be stopped immediately.

Trump calls for peace after literally bombing Iran:

📢 A US Army combat veteran has a few words to express his thoughts on the oath he took. 🔥

⚡️Ukraine asks allies to earmark 0.25% of GDP for joint defense production, Zelensky says. Ukraine is currently in talks with Denmark, Norway, Germany, the United Kingdom, and Lithuania on weapons development partnerships, according to the president.

My response to JD Vance's lies today in LA.

“This is an evil bill. It's gonna rip away health care from 15 million Americans. It's gonna rip away food assistance from millions of people across this country.” — Rep. Maxwell Frost on what’s really at stake. Must-watch.👇

…this ISN'T how it began. This is already several stages along the way.

Andry José Hernández Romero, I remember you, even if I do not know how to articulate my horror, rage, & sorrow at your treatment by my government. No one has heard from you in 97 days. As vigil, I’m posting a photo (or video) of you every day until you are returned from El Salvador.
