Well said. And if the federal laws won't do this, the states, which grant corporate status, can and should.

Never forget that billionaires spend billions to convince you that voting doesn't matter. Don't help them. Voting isn't the ONLY thing we can do, but it is the most powerful check on the executive. "Don't bother voting because there'll be no free elections" is oligarch propaganda.

Every time the Trump regime uses the words "funded protesters" and "outside agitators" news outlets need to cut to this photo from last week.

ICE has invaded these communities. Outside agitators don't show up in their fucking bathrobes.

The National Portrait Gallery removed key details from the caption under Donald Trump's photograph. It still has a story to tell—Judith Shulevitz looks deep into the portrait and describes what glowers back:
