Donald Trump is putting Wall Street first by gutting the CFPB.

I joined House and Senate Democrats in filing an amicus brief to defend the CFPB and American consumers from predatory financial practices.

Trump’s nominee to run the IRS, Representative Billy Long, had a six-figure debt paid off by campaign donors, all of whom happen to have tax issues with the IRS.

Billy Long received quite a bit of money after Trump picked him to lead the Internal Revenue Service.

Instead of using “emergency“ decrees to move us toward authoritarianism, Trump should declare our broken health care system an emergency and move us toward guaranteed health care for all.

When 85 million Americans are uninsured or under-insured, that’s the true emergency.

Adobe is backing the GOP attack on click-to-cancel.

Last year the FTC ruled that any subscription you sign up for with a click must be cancel-able with a click.

Now Republican politicians want to roll back this rule, and Adobe is supporting their push.

Rumor has it the Bronze Buffoon has ticked off European leaders to the point they’re considering dropping intel on his Epstein links, shady Russian dealings, secret kids — you name it.

If that’s legit, I’m making popcorn. 🍿

HOW ABOUT YOU?! 🤚

Kristi Noem billed South Dakota taxpayers more than $640,000 in personal travel-related costs, including a six-day trip to Paris, a bear hunt in Canada, a trip to Houston for dental work to fix her smile, and a book tour. But she can afford a $50,000 Rolex for a prison porn photo op in El Salvador.
Kristi Noem refused to say who financed some of her travel. It was taxpayers who were on the hook
An Associated Press analysis of recently released travel records found more than $150,000 in expenses tied to Noem’s political and personal activity.

Bernie & AOC: Power to the People

“Dems Fill Stadiums” is headline news,
While GOP town halls are filled with boos.
Pissed off America knows things aren’t right.
Fuck the GOP’s oligarchy bias. Let’s fight!

You can tell how bad it is when you look at travel insurance. In Britain you can get two types of travel insurance: worldwide and worldwide + America. The difference between the two in my case is £1300.

Not a single mention of the absolutely enormous rallies headlined by Sanders and AOC on the front pages of the NYT or WaPo. I will leave contrasting how they covered the "tea party" at this point in 2009 as an exercise to the reader

Medicare for All isn't radical.

What's radical is that we are the only major country not to guarantee health care as a human right. Every other major country figured out years ago how to provide health care to all at a much lower cost.

Please don't tell me we can't do the same.

Anecdotal, but I'm definitely noticing an uptick in advocacy for violence here. About which I'll say only this: Promoting violence on social media is the work of trolls and fools, those eager to bait others into implicating themselves in the age of surveillance or fools rushing to the gulag.

Today, we have more income and wealth inequality than ever before.

But the greed of the oligarchs never stops. 

Now, in order to get huge tax breaks, they want to cut back on Social Security, Medicaid and veterans programs.

Together we can stop them. We must stop them.

Wow.

Rep. Chuck Edwards is getting torn apart at a town hall in Asheville, NC.

“I’m a veteran & you don’t give a fuck about me. You don’t get to do this to us!”

Edwards orders veteran to be thrown out.

We’re approaching a tipping point now. Anger across the country is going to boil over soon.
