It is quite remarkable the Republican party has ceded one of their most important functions- the power of the purse- to the feckless president by voting for the recession package. Why have a Congress when the only thing they have done since January 20 is to grovel to trump? I am beyond disgusted.

It’s remarkable Republicans think nothing of spending billions on boondoggles like bombing the Houthis and Iran, and hosting ostensible parades for the military, but when it comes to funding food and healthcare for the most vulnerable, they talk about being fiscally conservative.

Greetings from rural Michigan where we had about 500-600 people protesting in the village of Benzonia. Great turnout!

Everyone, share pictures from your No Kings protest marches.

We may disagree on many things, but we stand together on the fundamentals.

We are relearning the meaning of “solidarity.” This is absolutely vital.

Folks, CBO estimate of the distributional effect of the One Big Beautiful Bill Act is out: www.cbo.gov/system/files...

It's grotesque

It is absolutely imperative for we all show up Saturday for the No Kings protest. We must show this administration they have exceeded their authority and we will not tolerate their unlawful and violent behavior.

In my state of Michigan, House Republicans are already working on a ballot to limit voter rights. The poorly named federal SAVE Act is dormant, for now, but Michigan is not the only state where Republicans are attempting to restrict voting. Be prepared: register now!

All you young people, be prepared for Republicans (courtesy of Project 2025) to challenge mailing of contraceptives and abortion bills using as their justification the Comstock Act of 1873. Do your research and be prepared to fight.

Raised in a mid-sized, homogeneous, rural town, I was sheltered. It was education (I have a PhD in microbiology) that broadened my conservative roots. Most academics are “liberal” because we are taught to be open-minded, to ask questions, and to seek truth.

Trump posted on truth social that food prices are down. When is the last time he personally shopped. For us plebeians who do shop for ourselves, we know he is lying.

This is completely terrifying, a huge violation of the first amendment, and part of the coopting of a distorted version of anti-semitism to justify persecution of people speaking out against Israel's genocide. And the broader pursuit of a police state.
Not sure if this has been shared here yet, but this is video of Rumeysa Ozturk's arrest posted by WCVB. It's terrifying.

Here I react to the shameful behavior of American leaders and media toward the Ukrainian president. No doubt there were more, but I saw five failures on our side: of hospitality, decency, democracy, strategy, and independence. Please watch and share.

What happens to the bottom 90% , those households making less than $250,000, when the Republicans force through the next tax cut? Who will drive the economy? Will this country continue to depend on the spending of the richest 10%? Wake up America!
