It may not be cool or hip in some circles, but we legitimately do need a massive amount of people to run for office. Flood the school boards, councils, county seats, state legislatures, Congress, etc. Big changes at the top happen when the ground shifts at the bottom. And that can start now.

Food insecurity is a real thing in most rural/indigenous communities, but you’d think Sitka would have better grocery prices than it does Think again $11.99/pound for chicken breast and $5.79 per avocado makes you really check for items on sale around here And the $20 for 2 dozen eggs is sold out

NO. At a time of massive income and wealth inequality we should not be giving tax breaks to billionaires. We should demand that they start paying their fair share.

Trump brutally slams CNN's Kaitlan Collins, says ‘nobody watches’ her network. The man that told 32,000 lies while in office, told his maga rubes that they are eating cats and dogs, told them he’d reduce prices on day one, have peace treaty on day one is questioning someone’s credibility?!!!

A judge just blocked Elon Musk and co-president Donald Trump from firing the financial cops at the CFPB who protect consumers from Wall Street scams. There's power in fighting back.

House Republicans released a draft budget that aims to cut $2 trillion in spending. The programs impacted could include Medicaid, SNAP, and education programs. Why the cuts? To finance another round of tax cuts for the wealthy and corporations. It's reverse Robin Hood.

Donald Trump promised to lower costs, in his own words, “on day one.” Now, Trump and Elon Musk are gutting the consumer agency, which will increase costs on working people. www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol...

As a candidate last year, Donald Trump promised he could easily conquer inflation and ease voters' fears about the economy. Just like his last term he will deliver on precisely zero of his promises. No healthcare. No wall. Deficit not eliminated, he tripled it. No infrastructure.

You might have missed it, but Amazon warehouse workers in Raleigh, NC are voting this week on whether to form a union. If they win, they'll be the first unionized Amazon facility in the South. Remember that we can always find hope in the labor movement.

Europe can’t rely on the strength of the transatlantic relationship to help contain Russia’s threat – it must lead from the front and be the true force of support that Ukraine needs. Not just for Ukraine’s sake, but for a free and sovereign Europe.

It is perfectly legal to know your rights and to educate others about them, too. EVERYONE in the United States, citizen or not, has rights. I will not allow this administration to intimidate us from helping you know about them. Here’s our shareable guide ⬇️: (pt. 1/2)

Trump is reportedly looking to shrink the FDIC and consolidate it into other govt agencies. The FDIC was created during the Depression to protect bank deposits. This would come after Trump and DOGE shuttered the CFPB, which protects us from financial fraud. See the pattern?

This has always been the GOP's strategy: 1) Cut taxes for the wealthy & corporations by claiming they'll pay for themselves. 2) Explode the deficit. 3) Demand cuts to programs that millions of people rely on. 4) Repeat. Don't let them get away with it.

As the oligarchy is conspicuously exposed, Americans will see as clearly as we did at the end of the first Gilded Age that we have no option but to take back power. Only then can we continue the essential work of America.

Tesla earned $2.3 billion in the United States in 2024. You'd think it paid a lot in taxes, right? Well it paid precisely $0 in federal income taxes last year. You want waste and fraud? Look at what some big corporations and the rich are getting away with.

NEW: Shortly after Pam Bondi was sworn in Wednesday, Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger asked her to drop the Department of Justice’s lawsuit challenging the state’s 2021 voter suppression law, S.B. 202. I warned you, Raffensperger is no hero. He is a GOP vote suppressor.

Elon Musk and Donald Trump are trying to drive a wrecking ball through our government. The people who will pay a real price are the hard-working families who are just trying to make it to the end of the month. We must use every tool to fight back.
