100 billionaire families spent $2.6 billion in the 2024 election.

70% of these donations went to Republicans.

Now, Republicans in Congress are gearing up to slash essential programs to pay for another round of tax cuts predominantly for the rich.

This is what oligarchy looks like.

This bill will make you and your family poorer and sicker so that Donald Trump, Elon Musk and their buddies can get richer. Republicans are launching a war on working families, and I’m going to be battling like hell to stop them in their tracks.
BREAKING: House Republicans passed their sweeping reconciliation bill 215-214-1, securing a major win for Speaker Johnson and President Trump.

The package includes $3.8T in tax cuts, reductions to Medicaid and SNAP and a rollback of IRA clean energy credits. Every Democrat voted no.

New in PN: The new pope is latest sign that the world rejects Trumpism

"Neither Pope Leo nor Mark Carney nor anyone else can save the US from what its own voters have done to it. But we all live in the same world, and any pushback against Trump is helpful and hopeful."
The new pope is latest sign that the world rejects Trumpism

When you look at the statements that were edited out of Trump’s Meet the Press interview that aired on TV, it is pretty rich that he’s suing 60 Minutes over edits to Harris. These are the parts that weren’t shown on air. meidasnews.com/news/what-tr...

It is time for Trump to put up or shut up in Court.

A FEDERAL JUDGE said “no evidence before the court connects Abrego Garcia to MS-13 or any criminal organization.” No one is vouching for one man. We are standing up for EVERYONE’s right to due process under the Constitution.

Kilmar Abrego Garcia lived in Maryland with his wife and their three children, and has never been charged with any crime.

The Department of Homeland Security issued him a work permit, and he joined a union, working full time as a sheet metal apprentice.

The Trump tax scam in a nutshell:

1) Facilitate a huge giveaway to corporations and the rich

2) Send the national debt soaring in the process

3) Use this as an excuse to cut spending on government programs the rest of us rely on

Trump's tax scam 2.0 will be more of the same.

Republicans are trying to steal an election in North Carolina. They have been laying the groundwork for five months, and unless the federal courts intervene, they just might succeed. If they do, it could usher in a new era of election subversion in future contests across the country.

AOC doesn’t take a dollar from lobbyists or corporate PACS. Our top donor professions are teachers and nurses. 64% were first time contributors.

Shame on them
The DOJ lawyer who made the mistake of answering the court's questions about Abrego-Garcia candidly (eg yes he was mistakenly deported, a fact the Administration already has acknowledged), which got him put on administrative leave, has now been fired, ending his 15-year DOJ career..

1. He was in the U.S. legally.

2. A fed court ruled that he CANNOT be deported.

3. Trump defied the court & deported him to an El Salvador prison.

4. The Supreme Court unanimously ruled Trump must bring him back to the U.S.

5. Trump said no.

Don’t blame just Trump for this. Blame every congressional Republican. They own this tariff disaster too. In fact, they own every stupid, ignorant, cruel, authoritarian, un-American thing Trump does.
