Government shutdown or not, Palantir still gets paid on most existing contracts.

The hypocrisy is clear: Wall Street & gov-tied firms keep raking it in during shutdowns, but ordinary Americans pay the price in healthcare, delayed paychecks & stalled services. #FightOligarchy

From launching family coins and memecoins to selling policy to foreign governments, Trump’s crypto corruption has gone way too far.

Meanwhile, working people are left holding the bag.

This isn’t about “innovation,” t’s about oligarchs buying our democracy.

A federal judge blocked Trump from sending Guard troops to Oregon.

Within hours, he turned to Texas troops for Chicago & beyond.

This isn’t democracy.

It’s authoritarian power grab.

Her mother’s family died in the Holocaust, and what’s happening in Gaza feels deeply personal. Even through illness, she remembers who stands for justice.

Now Dina’s joining our movement to make calls and fight for Zohran. 💪 This is what hope looks like. This is what Our Revolution is about.

Imagine denying disaster relief during floods, fires & hurricanes unless states do your immigration bidding.

That’s what Trump’s DHS tried to do — and a judge just struck it down as unconstitutional.

Holding lives hostage for politics isn’t “law & order,” it’s cruelty.
