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.

Why talk to doctors when you can get free medical advice on the sewer that is Facebook?

The movie "Saturday Night Fever" comes to mind.

When they tell you they plan on throwing out the constitution, believe them.

I think everyone is overlooking the real possibility that they aren't swearing her in because she's Latina.

Not horror-related, but it made me belly laugh, so I'm sharing it. Deal with it :P

There are reports that the *entire* office of special education at the US Dept of Education has been cut. These hardworking folks ensure kids with disabilities get equal access to a quality education.

America’s children deserve better than this.

Did you ever notice that they never mention the possibility that heavy metals, sewage and other pollutants in public water supplies could be a factor? It might affect corporations.

Nothing says “America First” like letting another country put an Air Force base in Idaho

Or maybe the horse tranquilizer just makes them not care about being sick?

Most national news outlets were acquired by maga interests in the past 2 years when nobody was paying attention. Now it's all basically propaganda favoring Trump. There's little to trust.

I knew Fox News was theater. I just didn't realize it was a repertory theater that recycles actors for different roles.

You'd think a company that had to pay $787,000,000 for deceiving its viewers would be a little more careful about blatantly continuing the practice.

They're using their tax breaks to create jobs. It all trickles down. 🙄

Instead of just moving on to something else, their answer is always to censor anything they disagree with.

The White House Antifa Roundtable is one of the best displays I’ve seen of this-is-how-bad-it’s-gotten — just a sewer of open fascism, dementia, morons and freaks, and incoherent rage.
