Cuts to healthcare and food assistance programs in exchange for tax cuts skewed to the rich, a record breaking amount of military spending, and a giant funding boost for ICE's deportation machine. This budget bill is utterly shameful.

The richest man in the world spent more money than most of us will see in our lifetimes to lose a state Supreme Court race by 10 points.

And the fact his $25 million was a drop in the bucket compared to what he's spent on other elections is exactly why we must overturn Citizens United.

People keep talking about the security implications of the Hegseth leak.
The other issue is they are likely illegally using Signal to bypass mandatory government record keeping. That should be equally as terrifying.

Venezuela minister says no Tren de Aragua members among US deportees

Why do so many feel like they've fallen behind?

It's not because of immigrants, trans people, the “deep state,” or any other bogeyman trotted out by the GOP. 

It's because big corporations and billionaires have rigged markets and siphoned off most of the economy's gains.
