Spotify has laid off thousands in recent years, while reportedly paying artists $0.003 per stream.

Spotify profits rose 28% in Q3. Its CEO is worth $9.8 billion. It's making money off ICE recruitment ads.

Don't you think it's time put a wrap on corporate greed and exploitation?

The future of the Democratic Party must be rooted in investing in the American people — not Wall St., corporations, and consultants.

Otherwise, Trumpism will continue to use cynicism, racism, and distrust to divide America.

We should all be appalled that a person entrusted with one of the most sensitive jobs in all of government seems to be treating his work as child’s play.

So far, in less than one year, Donald Trump has issued over TEN TIMES as many pardons as he did in his entire four-year first term. That’s a lot of criminals released onto our streets.

When Trump is confronted about one of his lies, he always resorts to lie, deny, attack and never admit guilt or take accountability….right out of Roy Cohn’s book. 😡 The real fake here is this lying con man and snake oil salesman.

Trump needs to tell us exactly how families are supposed to survive the new skyrocketing healthcare premiums in January‼️

Families are drowning and he’s busy being dismissive and pretending nothing’s wrong.

Listen, if you tell me that “taxation is theft” I’m going to need you to quit driving on highways or walking on sidewalks or attending a public school or using police or fire services or city snow removal.

I would mention libraries, but…

Mark Kelly: "This president, when he says things like 'third world countries,' what is he really saying? I think what he's saying is he doesn't want brown people in our country. And that's disturbing. It's un-American."

She’s a veteran, consistently stands against ICE with our community, and is one of 2 National Guardsmen in IL standing up to the Trump administration.

She is so incredible and admirable that she deserves at least 500 hand-knit hats. 💗💗💗

Busting up big corporations and tackling Wall Street’s greed.

Getting big money out of politics.

Strengthening unions and fighting for higher wages.

Medicare for all, paid family leave, universal childcare...

This is the progressive populist agenda we need in America.
