Trump's anti-clean energy policies aren't just bad for the environment—they're killing jobs and hurting local economies across the country.

The Trump administration is canceling infrastructure projects across the country, raising our energy bills and locking thousands of workers out of the jobs.

It’s an attack on working families across the country.

Bad management at DOJ leading to staff exit & trouble hiring.

Synchronized withdrawal of labor. Collapse of labor supply.

Taking a job now there as an attorney pretty much only guarantees you will lose your law license in the future. You would have to be an idiot to apply.

In a world where the incumbent president bowed to pressure and stepped aside, it doesn’t seem like such a monumental ask to switch minority leaders.

After yesterday’s surrender, we’re launching the largest Democratic primary program that we’ve ever run.

We will not back any Senate primary candidate unless they call for Schumer to step down as Minority Leader.

If you’re as pissed as we are, join this campaign to rebuild the Democratic Party. 👇
Democratic leaders have failed us again. It's time to get new leaders.

So it turns out... the US air travel system was incredibly, deeply dependent on federal funding to just run day-to-day all this time, to the benefit of private airline shareholders, when everyone thinks that state-run trains are leeching off the government. Weird!

When Trump wants to pardon a drug trafficker, befriend a terrorist, or praise a dictator because they did something to benefit him personally, when confronted with their past crimes he always either minimizes them or claims that they were treated unfairly. While Republicans just go along with it.
