Bingo. Corporate welfare is the real welfare you should be talking about.
And in these days we can find our strength and solace within, where it can sometimes hide as despair.

Do NOT put Donald Trump on any U.S. currency!
Rarely in U.S. history have living presidents minted their image on U.S. currency. Trump wants to change that.
In October, it was reported that Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent unveiled plans f...

Blowing up civilian boats in international waters is international terrorism. Illegal throughout the world. Making an accusation & killing people is barbaric. What if another country started blowing up boats off our coast?

Courage to speak up! All leaders need this grit and courage!
Illinois Gov. Pritzker vows to pursue Trump officials who participate in an illegal National Guard deployment to Chicago:
"If you hurt my people, nothing will stop me - not time or political circumstance - from making sure that you face justice under our constitutional rule of law."

Stop fighting by a code of honor they burned decades ago. This is not a gentleman's duel; it is a back-alley brawl for the nation's soul. Prop 50 drops the pretense and lets us fight with the same rules they use against us. It's time to win. Vote YES on 50.

Last week Trump said he likes the idea of starting a war so he can declare “no more elections” and stay in office forever.
Today he just said “a lot of people” want “a dictator.”
See where this is going?
