Remember: The concentration of wealth in the hands of a few isn't just bad for our economy. It's corrosive to our democracy.
When the wealthy and well-connected control our political system, regular people don't have a voice.
The result? The demagoguery and corruption we're seeing now.

I stand with unionized Starbucks workers, who are on strike across the country right now for better wages and working conditions.
Until Starbucks strikes a fair bargain with its workers and ceases its union-busting behavior, I'll continue to boycott the company.

Heartbreaking news out of Charlotte about the absolutely grotesque behavior by out of control federal agents.
Here’s a story for every national news outlet:
In N.C., churchgoers are literally running into the woods as federal agents descend on the property.
“Inside the church, women and children sobbed as they wondered whether their loved ones had been taken.”

Covid-19 is a relentless disease that frequently results in serious illness and early mortality.
Most people are currently allowing themselves to suffer repeated infections of Covid-19.
It is only a matter of time until the collective burden of illness and mortality becomes overwhelming.
