“Imbecilic fascist fucktarderies”;

Nearly 8 in 10 Americans agree that spending by wealthy donors and corporations in our elections gives rise to corruption — including majorities of Republican and independent voters.

Money in politics is the root of our dysfunction.

We must overturn Citizens United.

🖋️ “Condemn JD Vance’s Defense of Racism and Hate Speech” hit 100 signers!

Condemn JD Vance’s Defense of Racism and Hate Speech
Text SIGN PSHYMH to 50409 — I am writing to express outrage that Vice President JD Vance has defended the Young Republican leaders exposed for sharing vile racist, antisemitic, and misogynistic slurs in their private group chats. These were not “kids,” as Vance falsely claimed. They were adult staffers working for state legislators, attorneys general, policy institutes, and even the federal government. Their messages—glorifying Hitler, joking about the Holocaust, mocking rape, and using slurs against women and people of color—were not “edgy humor.” They were hate speech. Dismissing this behavior as “boys being boys” normalizes racism and undermines the moral standards our leaders should uphold. Vance’s defense is especially disturbing given that some of the attacks were aimed at Indian women—the heritage of his own wife and children. His silence and excuses reveal a lack of basic decency, empathy, and integrity unfit for public office. This comes as yet another Republican staffer was caught displaying a swastika on a U.S. flag in a congressional office. When hate symbols and hate speech are met with excuses instead of condemnation, it sends a message that extremism is tolerated at the highest levels of government. Congress must draw a clear moral line. Condemn JD Vance’s defense of hate speech, reaffirm zero tolerance for racism and antisemitism in all government offices, and ensure that individuals who traffic in or excuse such hatred are never placed in positions of power or trust again.

Republicans have been breaking promises left and right — clawing back money out of bipartisan budget deals and stealing health care from millions of Americans.

Democrats are holding the line to protect your health care.

Attorney General Bondi sent me a letter last week. It purports to notify me that Washington state “has been identified” as a “so-called sanctuary jurisdiction” — on grounds that her letter makes no effort whatsoever to explain.

These servicemembers put their lives on the line for this country. It is disgraceful and wrong to deny them at least the same benefits any other veteran would receive.

The economy is adding barely any jobs right now and where we’ve seen new jobs it's been in health care.
 
Well guess what? Republicans just passed the largest cuts to health care and Medicaid EVER.
 
We need to reverse those cuts and end Trump's tariffs if we want to salvage our economy.

The entire premise of Trump’s trade war is unimaginably stupid.

There is no “making it in America” when the “it” in question is coffee or green tea, which we cannot grow at scale here in the United States.

Republicans need to vote with us to finally end these tariffs.

To pretend Republicans are serious about addressing the debt is laughable—and America should laugh!

You could cut the equivalent of what Trump is currently asking for in DOGE cuts every single day, for an entire year, and it still would not match the cost of the Big Ugly bill!
