Important piece:
You can watch the 60 Minutes piece (with a link in my story) about the abuse & torture migrants received in the El Salvador gulag after being deported by the Trump regime without due process & lies about their criminality. This horror is what Trump apologist Bari Weiss didn’t want Americans to see.
Bullseye from 60 Minutes journalist Sharyn Alfonsi in response to Bari Weiss: “If the administration’s refusal to participate becomes a valid reason to spike a story, we have effectively handed them a ‘kill switch’ for any reporting they find inconvenient.”

When Massachusetts passed a "millionaires tax" in 2023, conservatives claimed the rich would flee.

But two years later, they haven't — and MA has collected $5.7B for infrastructure and public education.

A reminder that positive change can still happen at the state level.

If this country was truly “pro-life,” we would have Medicare for All, a Green New Deal, gun reform, universal child care, and a living wage.

The right-wing agenda isn’t about “life.”

It’s about control.

I shouldn't be shocked, but I'm still always brought up short to realize how many people think "civility" means "white people speaking in relatively calm voices" no matter what vile shit they say.

Absolutely embarrassing
this stuff is such a disgrace. a free citizen of a free country should be ashamed to engage in it.

Keep in mind when you see Trump’s political attacks about the LA fires that he doesn’t understand the problems, care about the personal suffering or desire to learn what happened so he can do something to help. He just wants to exploit the tragedy to score points and fuel more conflict and division.

Lowering costs for families by cracking down on corporate greed will always yield better results than corporate tax cuts.

Investing in programs that put more resources in the hands of working families will always outperform tax breaks for billionaires.

That's the reality.
