Paying attention and sharing information. Clear eyed and dead set against republicans and republicanism. If you’re not blaming republicans you’re doing it wrong.

Ellison: Today, you should never get a Republican AG, because they’re not your AG. They’re Leonard Leo’s AG. They’re Donald Trump’s AG. But they are not your AG. They’re not Louisiana’s AG. They’re not Mississippi’s AG. They’re beholden to others.

republican rotten corruption wants it. For the money they would get. That's their 'health care' for you. It's only there if you can pay. The worst 'healthcare' plan in the western world is getting worse by the day.
Thank a republican.

This is proof democracy, an open society, is not something anyone gives us. We get it by being ruthlessly suspicious of wealth, and the power its gravity draws. Democracy is something you do, and voting is not enough. US economy is shaped to prevent all of that.
We spent a year investigating billionaires for @washingtonpost.com.

We found: the wealthiest 100 Americans gave $1.1 billion to influence the 2024 elections — 140x more than they did in 2000. And almost all of that giving boosted Republicans.

Why did so many news outlets say that Trump's tiny plurality last year was a mandate and a sign of a permanent political realignment?

How many news outlets are there that are *not* owned by the plutocrats who spent more than a billion dollars to elect Trump and preserve their tax cuts?

How Billionaires Took Over American Politics

The concentration of wealth among the richest Americans is unlike anything in history — and so is billionaires’ influence in politics.

Surging inequality is damaging America -- our economy, our way of life, destroying upward mobility, destroying democracy. And billionaires, who want to stay billionaires, want that to continue.
