#TheRightFight
Republicans cheered taking away health care from over 17 million people.

They cheered giving huge tax breaks to a handful of billionaires & increasing the national debt by $3.5 trillion.

I’m angry. But we stay in the fight — not because it’s easy, but because it’s the right fight.
Zac Segal. Let everyone know what kind of person he is.
According to the car wash owner, agents arrested employees before they could obtain their documentation from their work lockers. So many were likely here legally.

Here's hoping this article on Zac boasting about how he ruined some immigrants' lives follows him around for a very long time.

At the same time the NY Times was hyping Hillary Clinton's emails, it had a reporter with emails from Jeffrey Epstein that were highly damaging to Trump.

The more NYT apologists try to minimize this the clearer it becomes that they don't understand why much of the public doesn't trust legacy media.

Anyone who claims to be a 'leader' must adopt and act upon these words and ideals. No exceptions.
81 years ago, FDR proposed a second Bill of Rights to guarantee every American the right to employment, healthcare, education, housing, and a living income. His words are as relevant now as they were then. Watch.

Who protects pedophiles and child traffickers?

There's only a limited amount of answers:
• They protect themselves.
• Their 'customers'.
• Their 'friends' (those with similar motives).
• Those who are blackmailing them (to maintain their leverage).
• And yes, all of the above. Lots of overlap.

Today, the BBC bent the knee.

Yesterday, it came out that a NYT reporter had with emails from Jeffrey Epstein in 2015 that were highly damaging to Trump and were never disclosed to the public.

This is on top of WaPo, ABC, CBS all capitulating.

Karoline Leavitt blamed the lack of an October jobs report on Democrats, with October CPI and jobs reports likely never being released. According to Goldman Sachs, the U.S. lost 50,000 jobs last month. Which is likely the real reason why Trump is refusing to release the October jobs report.

As I sometimes like to mention, s the only reason you know who Jeffrey Epstein is (that is, if you weren't one of his friends/clients/beneficiaries) is because Ms Brown, below, broke the story of his sweetheart deal to get out of the 2008 trafficking charges.
