Socialism is what they called public power.
Socialism is what they called social security.
Socialism is what they called the growth of free and independent labor organizations.
Socialism is their name for almost anything that helps all the people.

Remember that this is what the Trump-Republican big, ugly bill was all about. It's Robin Hood in reverse.
Why would any Democrat vote for a continuing resolution that greenlights this regime's cruelty?

Donald Trump is going to wage war on American cities over a fake crisis that isn’t happening involving a fake “terrorist organization” which doesn’t exist, so he can stop us from talking about the real child sex trafficking files he’s very much in.

With the Tylenol bullshit I’m reminded that women have always been the scapegoat.
Remember, they didn’t burn witches. They burned women. And I have no doubt that some would like to bring that practice back.
