The 500 richest people in the world added $304B to their combined net worth yesterday after Trump's tariff pause. Meanwhile, retirees, small businesses, and workers are still reeling from the mess. Trump's actions feel chaotic until you see who really comes out on top.

Blatantly voter suppression! The GOP knows it’s the only way they can win.

Are you a woman who changed your name when you got married? Congress is considering a bill that could make it much harder for you to vote. Call your rep—this is not a drill. indivisible.org/resource/cal...

Wow - so many morons. My Social Security is not a “handout”. It’s my money and I want my check every month. And, I’M RETIRED. Of course I don’t want to go back to work. Is this prick going to work till he dies? Doubt it.

Today, we’re voting on what Republicans are calling the “SAVE Act”—but let’s be real, it’s a straight-up voter suppression bill. They are literally trying to make it harder for millions of Americans to exercise their right to vote. I’m voting NO—hell no, actually.

Only a mentally ill person would think they can be a draft dodger, consistently insult veterans, active duty military, and dead heroes, and think they deserve to have a military parade in their own honor… Just sick!

He’s unbelievably delusional. If 2020 was rigged clearly 2024 was.

Call me crazy, but I don't think insider trading is included in that "presidential immunity" bullshit.

You set the house on fire, watched it burn, and then lost your nerve and put it out. You now have a partially burned house. Great job.

Elon Musk's DOGE bragged about closing Social Security field offices. Faced with massive public backlash, the Trump administration is now saying no offices will close. They're lying.

15 years ago the Supreme Court decided corporations are people under the First Amendment. Today, billionaire political spending is up 160-fold since that ruling. We must overturn Citizens United. Every day, it corrupts our politics and erodes our democracy.

Social Security Alert: is the Trump campaign of Social Security disinformation, designed to damage confidence, a precursor to turning it over to private equity and tech bros? It sure seems so. Why else such persistent lying?

It took 3 days for this to appear in the local paper. But at least it was covered. I was there and will be back on the 19th. Show up and be heard. This is the way.

Sotomayor is right. According to this Supreme Court, the US can now kidnap, detain, and fly legal immigrants and citizens to a foreign country's prison, even if it's a whoopsie. America, people. Freedom and stuff.

Republicans in Congress can repeal every tariff tomorrow and take Trump’s tariff authority away from him. But they choose not to. So every Republican in Congress owns EVERY SINGLE BIT of this. You can’t hide from the voters forever.

As the economic news keeps coming out over the coming weeks keep one thing in mind: this is the fault of one man and didn’t need to happen.

Let’s be real. Trump couldn’t play chess with a child and win.

We were there. It was encouraging to see the turnout. We can do this!
