Today House Republicans, cheered on by the richest person on Earth, passed a budget framework that will cut support for the poorest people in our country.
All while cutting taxes for corporations and the wealthy, and massively increasing the deficit.

Mike Johnson on Medicaid: "What we've talked about is returning work requirements ... you return the dignity of work to young men who need to be out working instead of playing video games all day. We have a lot of fraud, waste, and abuse in Medicaid."

For 50 years, the median wage of hourly workers stagnated or declined while the stock market and CEO pay skyrocketed.
Is it any wonder so many feel abandoned by the system? People lose faith, and a demagogue fills the void.
This is why we must fix the system.

I was talking to some colleagues about strategies for defending academic freedom & universities: they are taking away academic freedom because they want coercive control. They delight in watching us make arguments, just so they can deny them & assert power. We should still make the arguments.
If you didn't see Al Green's protest last night, CNN has it here. The thing that stood out to me about it was the gleeful way the Republicans chanted over him, gaveled him into silence, and generally seemed to enjoy dominating him. Really gross. www.cnn.com/2025/03/04/p...

President Donald Trump made it about four minutes into his first speech to Congress before a Democratic lawmaker, Rep. Al Green, began shouting that he should be impeached.

Trump and Vance are shamefully doing Putin’s bidding right from the Oval Office. It’s an absolute disgrace. I’m filled with rage as I watch this. I stand with all of you who believe deeply in the ideals of freedom and democracy. I’m disgusted by our president bending a knee to Putin.
Trump to Zelenskyy: "Don't tell us what we're gonna feel. You're in no position to dictate that. You're in no position to dictate what we're gonna feel. We're gonna feel very good and very strong. You're right now not in a very good position. You're gambling with World War 3."
