You cannot have a functioning economy when so few people at the top hold so much of the nation’s wealth. It’s not sustainable.

This holiday season, families face a trifecta of economic pressures:

Record-high grocery bills.
The weakest seasonal job market in over a decade.
Rising electricity costs.

Working people are struggling in Trump's economy, but he's too busy building himself a ballroom to notice.

Pete Hegseth directed the Pentagon to investigate Senator Mark Kelly. His potential crime? Telling members of the armed services that they do not have to follow illegal orders. Saying so is not a crime; And it’s protected by the 1st Amendment.

There is a reason why Witkoff did not want any officials with the State Dept or anyone else present during his many meetings w/Putin - he didn’t want witnesses to his treasonous behavior. Highly unusual, but makes perfect sense when you consider that he only cared about Russia.

If you're traveling, be kind to those around you.

And remember that flying sucks so much these days because of the greed of the airlines. https://youtu.be/eTzaMXXelew?si=Iadyozwl-WcAKwzT

As a former national and state parks employee, this saddens me. I had amazing interactions with international visitors. Sharing our natural treasures with them increases good will and connection. And Trump on park passes, disgusting - it's always all about him.

NEWS --> BBC confirms to me that they did edit a line out of historian @rutgerbregman.com's speech. It called Trump "the most openly corrupt president in US history."

BBC also confirms this was done on the advice of lawyers. So Trump's threats worked.

First, British Broadcasting Corporation execs resigned after Trump complained about a segment. Now the BBC edited out a line from a historian that was critical of Trump. Where does this end?

Trump keeps escalating his dangerous rhetoric, and it’s fueling a surge in death threats against anyone he labels an “enemy.” His Truth Social posts aren’t subtle, they’re prompting MAGA supporters to bombard people with threatening calls, emails, and online messages.

Busting up big corporations and tackling Wall Street’s greed.

Getting big money out of politics.

Strengthening unions and fighting for higher wages.

Medicare for all, paid family leave, universal childcare...

This is the progressive populist agenda we need in America.
