Earlier this morning, President Trump threatened me and a group of service and veteran Members of Congress with arrest, trial, and death by hanging.

It doesn’t matter if you don’t believe in science. It does matter if you don’t fund it.
Every machine in a Hospital that diagnoses your body without cutting you open is based on a principle of Physics, discovered by a Physicist who had no interest in Medicine.
If you think the world doesn’t need Basic Science, or that somehow Science has failed you, think again.

Yes indeed. CEOs are unaffordable.
CEO pay is up 1,094% since 1978, while worker pay is up just 26%.
Why do we always hear "we can't afford to pay our workers more" but never "we can't afford to pay our CEO more"?

We are living in an effing nightmare.
He stood in front of the world at the UN today, and every other word out of his mouth was a lie. I’ll say it again, we’ve not been here before. An American President who lies as he breathes. It’s a terrible place to be. Shame on the media & everyone who’s normalized his lying and/or doesn’t care.

The biggest divide is not between “right” and “left."
It’s between democracy and oligarchy.
The billionaires who control our economy and democracy seek to divide us.
They want us to turn on each other so we don't look up and see that they have all the wealth and power.

Nothing says, "Hey international companies, bring your manufacturing to the US" like arresting 475 workers at a Hyundai (70% of whom are South Korean).

Look at this graph.
The share of national income going to the richest 10 percent was lowest (and share to lower 90 percent highest) when union membership was at its highest. As unions have weakened, inequality has widened.
This is why we must build back union power.

One of the largest Ukrainian flags in the world was deployed in Anchorage Alaska today. A clear message to Donald Trump and Vladimir Putin – – we don’t want authoritarian here. And you know what? They’re already gone! They clearly got the memo. #AlaskaStandsWithUkraine.

CEO pay is up 1,085% since 1978, while typical worker pay is up just 24%.

Not really an overstatement to say that the test of a free society is whether or not comedians can make fun of the country's leader on TV without repurcussions.
