The House GOP just passed a $4.5 trillion tax cut for ultra wealthy billionaires. They want to pay for it with hundreds of billions in cuts to Medicare, Medicaid, and SNAP.

The U.S. appeasement of Russia & the abandonment of Ukraine at the UN represents a sad day in America. On today’s 3rd anniversary of Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, let’s be clear: Russia started this war and we must stand with Ukraine as it defends freedom and democracy in Europe.

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration is the latest federal agency to be hit with DOGE layoffs.
That's the same agency that has investigated crashes involving Tesla's self-driving cars.
This was never about "efficiency."

What did Musk accomplish last week? He and Doge fired 350 workers at DOE without realizing they worked on nuclear security and then had to rehire them. Embarrassing and terrifying. By his own metric Musk should be fired.

It may not be cool or hip in some circles, but we legitimately do need a massive amount of people to run for office.
Flood the school boards, councils, county seats, state legislatures, Congress, etc.
Big changes at the top happen when the ground shifts at the bottom. And that can start now.

Some remarkable numbers here: Trump's own pollster just found that in swing House districts, Democrats lead by 5 points and voters want tax policy to prioritize working people.
Yet the GOP is about to slash the safety net and give the rich huge tax cuts.
