I’m an 80 year old who is appalled at what is going on in our country. I will speak out until I am too old to see the letters on my phone or too addle-brained whichever comes first.

Medicare for All would save $450B a year.

Every dollar spent on food stamps generates $1.50-$1.80 in economic activity.

Each dollar going to low-wage workers adds $1.20 to the economy overall.

It’s not about what this country can or can’t afford.

It’s about priorities.

Personally, I'm...skeptical. Trump would really have to believe that congressional oversight is never going to return over the next 2 years, and that a Democratic administration will never be in power again, to think that a massive coverup like this would leave no digital traces *or* whistleblowers.

A reminder that seven years ago almost to the day, the CIA determined that Mohammed Bin Salman ordered the killing of @washingtonpost.com journalist Jamal Khashoggi.

I hired and worked with Jamal for a year.

Raskin: "In the very presence of the victims and survivors, the Speaker said that 'now is a time we should be working on urgent legislative work.' Mr Speaker, justice is urgent legislative work. The truth is urgent legislative work. You were the one who refused to swear in Rep. Grijalva for 50 days"

I will not be buying any World Cup tickets or merchandise due to FIFA’s collaboration with the Trump regime.

Gianni Infantino has a dictator fetish. It’s grotesque.
Fifa agrees World Cup matches can be moved at Trump’s request
The president has been warning host cities under Democratic control that he will call on Fifa’s president to switch venues if he deems there is a problem

Jim Jordan begged someone to not rat out the sexual assault that was happening at Ohio State. He was crying on the phone. Groveling. This man threw out all his dignity to try and cover for horrifying crimes of sexual abuse. Think about that for a moment.

Elon Musk’s new pay package could amount to $100B per year.

That's the same as 3.2 million cashiers’ paychecks combined.

It’s more than 1.4 million elementary school teachers’ paychecks.

It’s more than 2 million janitors’ paychecks.

Billionaire greed is out of control.

Fox News credulously reports that "the Saudis now say their investment pledge in the US will be increased to $1 trillion." THE ENTIRE GDP OF SAUDI ARABIA IS $1.1 TRILLION, so this is total nonsense.

PAY ATTENTION! The only ireporters questioning Trump on the Kashoggi murder and the Epstein cover-up ARE WOMEN!! They have the strength to speak truth to power and get insulted by the demented fool in the presidency and not a single male cohort stepped up to support them! I AM PROUD TO BE A WOMAN!

A lot of people didn’t like the Washington Post journalist who was tortured and dismembered with a bone saw for writing critically about the man sitting next to me
Trump suggests Khashoggi had it coming: "You're mentioning someone that was extremely controversial. A lot of people didn't like that gentleman that you're talking about. Whether you like him or didn't like him, things happen. But he knew nothing about it. You don't have to embarrass our guest."

This is the reporter that Donald Trump called "Piggy." She is Catherine Lucey, currently with Bloomberg.

I don't think it is a coincidence that, back in 2018, Lucey was the first reporter to ask Trump about Stormy Daniels. Trump responded with a lie, but, clearly, did not forget the question.
