Use our social toolkit to spread the word about the specifics of Trump’s Tax Scam. People overwhelmingly oppose the GOP’s dangerous reconciliation bill when they find out what’s in it, but a lot of Americans still aren’t aware of the details. We need to change that ASAP: app.sosha.ai/toolkit/trum...

Jon Favreau on Twitter: “Shocking how bad this bill is:

- 17 million would lose health care
- 30% higher electricity costs
- Millions of manufacturing and construction jobs destroyed
- Biggest ever cut in food assistance for families, kids, veterans
- $4 trillion in deficits
- $1 trillion in tax cuts for millionaires & billionaires

People should be on the phones, in the streets, and telling everyone who'll listen”

Medicare for All isn't radical.

What's radical is that we are the only major country not to guarantee health care as a human right. Every other major country figured out years ago how to provide health care to all at a much lower cost.

Please don't tell me we can't do the same.

Musk claims Social Security is a "gigantic magnet to attract illegal immigrants."

In fact, immigrants here illegally do not collect Social Security. But they pay $25.7 billion a year into it, a recent study found, so these undocumented workers are actually subsidizing Americans.

Any immigrant who lives with you must be treated as if they were one of your citizens. You must love them as yourself, because you were immigrants in the land of Egypt; I am the Lord your God.

According to Sun Tzu, "righteousness" is considered one of the most important factors in achieving victory in war, as it signifies strong leadership, high morale among troops, and a united army, ultimately leading to greater success on the battlefield.

H I will make them of the synagogue of Satan, which say they are Jews, and are not, but do lie; behold, I will make them to come and worship before thy feet, and to know that I have loved thee.

There’s been a kind of…fashion of late to view anti-Trump libs as lame and cringe and just annoying, aesthetically. I remember this exact same aesthetic judgment in the run-up to the Iraq war. The earnest libs were right then and they’re right now.
