"Republicans will give working class people tax hikes and cut their health care while lowering taxes for billionaires"

-- is a sentence that is entirely backed up by Congress' designated, nonpartisan scorekeeper.

And most importantly for the purposes of electoral politics, you can rephrase that sentence thusly with ad backup that will win a factcheck:

"Rob Bresnahan voted to give himself and other millionaires tax cuts while cutting Medicaid and raising taxes for working Pennsylvanians."

Right now, we have an authoritarian president.

He called CNN "illegal." He is trying to encroach on the spending powers of Congress. He is going after the courts.

Trump does not respect our Constitution. He just wants more and more power for himself.

Here are my 5 rules of thumb for when public services should NOT be privatized.

This is Winston Churchill visiting Washington DC to request assistance in the war against Germany. Notice he is wearing a "zip suit" and not a traditional suit. This was to honor the British troops--the same reason Zelensky dresses the way he does.
