Erin Wax believes that Alcoholics Anonymous can inspire left-wing movements, such as by helping people:
• recover from capitalistic indulgence,
• build trust with people joining the left,
• create constructive ways to hold disagreements, and
• remain nonreactive during conflict.

Trump canceled a meeting with Democratic leaders and refuses to negotiate in good faith. HE wants a shutdown. Remember: Trump himself said the president is accountable for a shutdown. The blame is his.

If this country was truly “pro-life,” we would have Medicare for All, a Green New Deal, gun reform, universal child care, and a living wage.
The right-wing agenda isn’t about “life.”
It’s about control.

Project 2025 was Donald Trump's blueprint to seize unchecked power within the federal government and restrict Americans' freedoms. And he is implementing it right in front of our eyes.

Quinnipiac in recent poll asked: Do you think that the way people talk about politics these days is contributing to violence in the United States, or don't you think so? 82% of voters agreed with this including majority of Dems, Independents, and GOP. I said basically this and got fired.

There is no world in which it is normal for the president to publicly call upon his attorney general to hurry up and prosecute his political foes. It’s like the Watergate tapes but posted on social media. Let’s get a grip on what’s happening here.

This is Trump's America - DISGUSTING POS!!!
They just tear-gassed us. They tried to run us over in a van holding a peaceful protester. They shot us with pepper balls. They dragged another protester into the facility.
moments ago, ice agents again came out of the broadview detention/“professing” facility to escort a silver suv out of the lot.
one of the agents picked up and threw congressional candidate kat abughazaleh to the ground.
