Here for building an economy that works for everyone. views are my own and correct.
What’s cool is that we have all the culture and love and the other side just has bitterness & kid rock
I'm hardly the first person to note this, but it's enormously instructive that our President and his followers saw the message "THE ONLY THING MORE POWERFUL THAN HATE IS LOVE" and understood it, correctly, as an attack on them
What a moment.

Billionaires vs everyone else
The billionaire class wants to decimate the white collar workforce. Because white collar workers are expensive. And because white collar workers—who historically sided with billionaires—are questioning that alliance. Which makes their knowledge and resources a huge threat to billionaire power.

I spent a lot of time following gun rights activists at the state level when I was lobbying for gun safety legislation at Everytown & their argument was always having guns protected them from government tyranny and overreach...and yet..here we are...
Jeanine Pirro declared on Fox that if anyone brings "a gun into the District, you mark my words, you're going to jail. I don't care if you have a license in another district and I don't care if you're a law-abiding gun owner somewhere else."

While the president screams nonsense about a "Democrat hoax", one thing is for sure - more tax cuts for billionaires who don't need them and billions of dollars for ICE to terrorize our communities is not helping American families pay for education, housing or healthcare.

Bobby is right: It’s not enough for Dems to just vote against new ICE funding. They should commit to taking away the slush fund.
Lifting this up again. A huge problem now is that there’s a giant slush fund for ICE & CBP separate from annual funding — that Trump can continue to use even during a shutdown.
Ds *must* make rescinding those pots of money the price of any future funding deals, as Rs did w/ IRS money from the IRA.

In 2022 we gave the IRS $80 bn. When Rs took the House they made rescinding that $$ the price of funding the govt. In each funding bill enacted since, large chunks of that were pared back
Ds should do that for the ICE money from OBBBA. Paring back that $$ must be a prerequisite for funding the govt
