Happy New Year!

This past year, Democrats came together and won races big and small across the country. We’re going to keep building on our momentum so we win up and down the ballot in 2026.

Ramblings from a president who cares more about his vanity projects than the economy.

Trump claims his ballroom is “under budget” while he keeps raising the budget. He also insists “everyone wanted it.” Absolutely no one asked for it.

The budget:
• July: $200M
• Oct: $250M
• Oct $300M
• Dec: $400M

Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis diverted more than $35 MILLION in taxpayer dollars to defeat two ballot initiatives last year.

I’ve got the @miamiherald.com‘s blockbuster reporting on how DeSantis cheated needy Floridians and children from their already-earmarked funds.

-Guaranteed healthcare
-The right to join a union
-The right to vote
-The right to choose when, how, and with whom you start a family

These are the foundations of real freedom.

JFK in 1960 defined a liberal as someone who who fights for justice and civil rights, someone who welcomes new ideas without rigidity, who defends the vulnerable, and acts with principle. His bold words still challenge every one of us to stand up and do what's right.

Poverty is a policy choice. Concentrated wealth is a policy choice. Inequality is a policy choice. None of it is natural or inevitable. Remember: We have the power to build a system that serves the many, not the powerful few.

Increase in productivity since 1979: 87%

Increase in hourly pay since 1979: 32%

Just so happens that ~25% of workers were unionized in 1979. Today? 10%.

As unions declined, the super-rich have taken a larger share of wealth generated by labor. We must build back union power.
