Why do so many feel like they've fallen behind?

It's not because of immigrants, trans people, DEI, the “deep state,” or any other bogeyman trotted out by the GOP. 

It's because big corporations and billionaires have rigged markets and siphoned off most of the economy's gains.

Every Republican senator shares responsibility for what’s happening. They are complicit in, and share responsibility for, whatever mess Trump’s dangerous nominees cause.

But a few GOP senators from purple(ish) states face reelection next year — and we’re going to shine a light on their complicity.
What to do about Republican complicity
Republican senators have taken some bad votes over the past week. Really, really bad.

It’s surprising how few people know that some of the first groups targeted by the Nazis were gay & transgender people. The pink triangle, now a symbol of LGBTQ+ resilience, was originally used to mark them in concentration camps. History matters—let’s not forget.
This is how the Nazi pink triangle became a defiant symbol of LGBTQ+ rights

We’re hearing way too many examples of Senate offices ignoring or being closed to their constituents (in red and blue states).

Unfortunately for these senators, they still work for us — and we have tips and tactics for visiting with unhelpful congressional offices. 👇

I can think of at least eight federal laws that have been broken by Musk and his goons over the last few days, and at least two provisions of the U.S. Constitution.
