Remember: Almost all of us are the descendants of immigrants who fled persecution, or were brought to America under duress, or sought better lives for themselves and their descendants.

Today's abysmal jobs report is a reminder that tax cuts for corporations and the rich don’t create jobs or grow the economy.
What's required is investment in working people — and better wages.
When workers have money to spend, the economy grows and businesses create more jobs.

Awkward timing for Trump. Difficult to engage in an illegal war nobody wants to steal oil based on drug war lies, while pardoning a drug kingpin, while your SecDef is investigated for war crimes, and when you have to find someone else willing to commit war crimes as new SecDef.

Voters want a Democratic Party that fights back against the forces that have rigged the system and made their lives more difficult.
A party that comforts the afflicted and afflicts the comfortable —not a party that buckles and capitulates.
When will party leadership learn this lesson?

Medicare for all. Get it done.
Yes, Mr. President: You’re right. We do have “the worst health care” of any major country.
Despite spending twice as much per capita, we are the only major country not to guarantee health care to all as a human right.
The solution: Medicare for All.

We are the sleeping giant
Trump is a failing authoritarian whose approval ratings are tanking. Like any bully who feels humiliated, he lashes out.
But what he doesn’t realize is that his bullying is waking up America’s great sleeping giant. We saw it begin to roar again this week.

Trump gave Amazon a $16 billion tax break to accelerate its investments this year.
Now, Amazon will replace 600,000 workers with robots as Jeff Bezos accelerates his plan to automate warehouses.
No. Corporate tax breaks do not trickle down to workers. Never have. Never will.
