Sometimes we need a moment, but if you tune out completely, they win. Fascism doesn’t need your support, just your silence.

America is not building enough housing and Americans are facing sky-high housing costs as a result.

Today, the Senate took a historic step to change that.

The ROAD to Housing Act will help communities – urban, suburban, and rural – build more housing and bring down costs.

If we get out of this with any part of our democracy still intact this is an excellent starting place to actually fix this broken mess!

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.

Well it looks like not all the American Lawyers went over to the dark side.
There's still a glimpse of the rule of law and integrity left in America.

In case you're wondering whether the Tr•mp is serious about persecuting people for the things they think and write about, consider the case of Mark Bray, a historian who writes about the origins and evolution of antifascism 🗃️
