How is it that we already know so much about the guy who shot 2 national guardsmen this afternoon but we know pretty much nothing about the two guys who tried to assassinate the president months ago?

By his own standards and his insistence on scapegoating and blaming, Trump should either explain why he and his administration granted Asylum to the DC shooter suspect SEVEN MONTHS AGO, fire Noem and Homan and apologize - or Trump should resign

While America today is focused on the DC National Guard shooting, we should all be asking how did the shooter get his guns and why is this administration working to make that even easier?
While the world focused on the Epstein files, Congress took up a dangerous bill that sponsors say is to help law enforcement get greater access to “less-than-lethal” weapons.

In reality, it deregulates dangerous weapons to help a billion-dollar weapons industry make more money.

Let's be clear: there is no Second Amendment right to illegally sell guns.

But Trump keeps deregulating the gun industry, rolling back safeguards, and even restoring gun rights to traffickers and abusers.

The NRA spent millions to elect him — and he’s paying them back with our safety.
I'm demanding answers from the DOJ, AFT, and FBI on sweeping staff cuts and agent reassignments.

ATF is losing critical investigators and diverting agents away from gun crime work. This is not how to make Americans safer.

Five corporations control 90% of the US media market.

Airlines merged from 12 major carriers in 1980 to 4 today.

Four giants control 80% of meat processing.

A handful of companies control the pharmaceutical industry.

The evidence of corporate concentration is everywhere.

Medicare for All would save $450B a year.

Every dollar spent on food stamps generates $1.50-$1.80 in economic activity.

Each dollar going to low-wage workers adds $1.20 to the economy overall.

It’s not about what this country can or can’t afford.

It’s about priorities.

Donald Trump is hiding.

He’s hiding from his own voters.

He’s hiding from the press.

He’s hiding from the American people.

Hold him accountable.

UPS announced 48,000 layoffs. Its CEO made over $24M last year.

Intel announced 20,000 layoffs. Its new CEO's pay package is valued at nearly $69M.
