America's richest 10% now hold 60% of the nation's wealth.
The bottom half of America? It holds just 6%.
Wealth inequality is eating this country alive.

There is no version of a sane reality where a government should be considering “what if we took access to healthcare from a group of people” as opposed to, like, voting on stuff that would provide MORE care and MORE opportunities for ALL of its citizens

Of all the things a compliant Republican congress is just letting happen, giving a slimy sex addict power over the health of the nation may end up doing the most irreversible damage.

The USPS posting a NINE BILLION DOLLAR LOSS!!! sounds terrible. Certainly worse than if you said "USPS costs thirty dollars per person per year" even though that means the same thing and more accurately describes a government service

We are not at war with Venezuela, yet. The boats are civilian craft. The U.S. criminal code does not maintain a death penalty for drug smuggling. Due process is required before conviction or sentence.
All of the 80 people killed thus far are wanton murders slain under illegal orders. All of them.

Just so we’re ALL clear: the President of the United States made death threats toward sitting Democratic members of Congress.
But they’re always claiming Democrats are the dangerous ones, right?

Medicare for All would save $450B a year.
Every dollar spent on food stamps generates $1.50-$1.80 in economic activity.
Each dollar going to low-wage workers adds $1.20 to the economy overall.
It’s not about what this country can or can’t afford.
It’s about priorities.

Workers and families went weeks without income or SNAP benefits during the shutdown.
But eight senators being investigated for efforts to overturn the 2020 election still managed to slip a $1 million taxpayer-funded payout for themselves into the budget.
This is NOT public service.

Republicans need to come back from their month-long paid vacation and do the work of democracy. Cancel the health care cuts. Reopen the government. Restore nutrition. Release the Epstein File. Cut the crap.

Pretty sure that claiming Tylenol causes autism, while epically stupid, is more enjoyable than defending an ongoing coverup for wealthy child rapists.

Lamont: We have something called Revolution Wind. It’s 80% complete and will likely power 300,000 to 400,000 homes by this time next year. It will dramatically bring down costs.. We were almost done — and then, at the very last moment, Trump pulled the plug on it.
