This is especially bullshit when it comes to trans rights, considering everything the right complains about (trans women playing in women’s sports, kids receiving puberty blockers and hormonal treatment, people using restrooms as they see fit) was NOT brand new, but was in fact the status quo

It’s so ridiculous it almost amuses me when people reply to my posts and say the Dems lost because they’re too far away from the middle and unwilling to compromise. As opposed to Trump?

100 billionaire families spent $2.6 billion in the 2024 election. 70% of these donations went to Republicans. Now, Republicans in Congress are gearing up to slash essential programs to pay for another round of tax cuts for the rich. This is what oligarchy looks like.

Senate Republicans are barrelling ahead with a plan to give tax handouts to billionaires and billionaire corporations. It would cost $7 trillion while cutting programs that help working families. It’s time to ring all the alarm bells—and I’m doing everything I can to push back.

The Trump-Musk war against workers continues. Last night, Trump issued a blatantly illegal executive order essentially destroying AFGE & NTEU, the unions representing federal employees. The Oligarchs don’t like unions. We do. Let’s stand together against this assault on workers.

I’m in this fight for an America that isn’t run by a handful of billionaires. Where we invest in medical research. Where every kid can go to a great public school. Where—instead of giving tax breaks to the rich—we make sure families can afford housing, health care, and groceries.

Elon Musk doubling down on calling Senator Kelly a "traitor" is beyond the pale. Senator Kelly is a decorated Navy vet who’s devoted his life to serving our country. Musk, on the other hand, has only ever served himself.

A reminder: Once-in-a-generation politician Claudia Sheinbaum, isn't afraid. On Benito Juarez' birthday (the only federal holiday in Mexico named after a person) she marched with a crowd that hadn't been checked by security. AOC and Bernie aren't afraid. This is a time for fearless leaders.

You have $100 in your checking account. One day, you check your balance and it's $60. You haven't made any withdrawals. You call the bank. They say $40 was taken as part of their "waste, fraud and abuse" program. Would you be ok with it? Coz it's happening to your social security and Medicaid.

For Donald Trump and Elon Musk, if you don’t bend the knee, you’re a traitor. Senator Kelly served in combat as a Navy fighter pilot. He commanded NASA missions into space. He’s a patriot. Like many of us, he believes in freedom and democracy — including for Ukraine.
