Laud what politicians do when they deserve it, but do not herocize them. Approach them with healthy skepticism and avoid any and all cults of personality. You have to be willing to scrutinize everyone.

Introducing a bill that will never be passed to address a crime that’s already illegal all to make people think he’s doing something and score social media points is the most Chuck Schumer thing imaginable.

We cannot separate what has happened to working people over the last five decades from the dangerous lure of Trumpism. To build a path forward, we must debunk these 10 destructive myths about our rigged economy.

This week’s main story is about Donald Trump’s worsening relationship with the press, how we should be reacting, how it could impact the U.S. moving forward, and how Will Trent has been renewed but Doctor Odyssey hasn’t. We will not sleep until ABC responds.

I want to see Democrats on TV blaming every flight issue on Trump. I want to see them at rallies telling voters that their hospitals are about to be defunded by Republicans. Instead what I see is Dems and the left arguing among themselves about signal votes and word choice.

New in PN: Voters want Dems to stand up to Trump, not self-flagellate "The base's frustration is not because leading Democrats have failed to oppose Joe Biden. It’s because they are perceived as failing to oppose Donald Trump."

I hope Democrats remember this when they talk about "Civility" and keep bending the knee to bad faith Republicans who dispense cruelty. Remember this.

Today is unfortunately a good reminder of just how depraved many Trump supporters are. It should be the easiest thing in the world to just wish someone well in light of a devastating health diagnosis. That they can't even meet that very low bar says a lot about their character.

it’s pretty remarkable how the Democratic Party is self-flagellating more in 2025 after swapping out their candidate and losing the popular vote by 1.5% than republicans did in 2021 after losing the popular vote by 4.5% and inciting an insurrection

WHAT American left? The furthest left we have of any substance are the people trying to give us healthcare, which is standard in other 1st world countries! The US doesn't have a hard left that has any power, & Dem leaders make sure to stamp out any signs of policies comparable to EU standards.

The Director of the FBI is openly lying to the American public about Canada being a major source of fentanyl. In the first three months of 2025, a grand total of 1.35 lbs of fentanyl was seized by border officials at our border with Canada — 0.06% of total seizures.

A lot of people, including in my hometown, just had their lives destroyed by a horrific storm. Remember when the media and politicians talk about how “strong” and “resilient” these communities are that they’re saying they don’t need that much help. It’s one of Neoliberalism’s most insidious tricks.

Trump is demanding that a U.S. company "EAT THE TARIFFS." These are the tariffs he insisted China would pay for, no? Why is the U.S. president suddenly taking China's side in his own trade war, at the expense of an American company?

Step 1. Announce arbitrary tariffs for each country Step 2. When markets crash, pause those tariffs and say they're just leverage for deals Step 3. Promise deals Step 4. Fail to make deals Step 5. Announce arbitrary tariffs for each country ...and yes, I find it hard to keep my cool, sometimes.

In case anyone needs to hear this, authoritarianism constantly shifts narratives and understandings, creating new opportunities to question laws and norms and things like birthright citizenship. Pay attention to which people accept these shifts, who engage in the ensuing debate. Collaborators.

Oh, FFS, JFC, WTF, I just can't believe there are still people out there praising Schumer like he's the Messiah who's going to save us all while all he does is writing "strong letters" and talking bipartisanship while receiving money from big donors. Why there isn't mass protests to oust him?

60% of American households can’t afford a minimal quality of life. Meanwhile, the 19 richest households saw their wealth increase by $1 trillion in 2024 — the biggest one-year increase ever. Our problem isn't a lack of resources. Our problem is ever-expanding inequality.
