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.

I'm beginning to think you can't be a Republican if you're not a hypocrite.
Kristi Noem is obsessing about how "unsafe" foreign truckers are.
What about HER decade of 20 speeding tickets, 3 failures to stop, a citation for driving without a license, and 6 failures to appear?

Rumor has it, that to make Andrew feel better about what happened, King Charles has arranged for him to go on an all expenses paid fishing trip to Venezuela.

The Andrew formerly known as Prince!
The palace has announced that a formal process is underway to strip Prince Andrew of his remaining style, titles, and honours entirely following his association with Jeffrey Epstein. Guess we should just call him Andrew now.

Rep. Adam Smith: "This country has not agreed to have the death penalty for drug smuggling. If we want to have that policy conversation, we can have that policy conversation, but the president has unilaterally decided that lethal force is going to be applied. It's an enormous expansion of power."

The top three things Jesus was on about were feeding the hungry, healing the sick, and welcoming the stranger. Rich men have convinced so-called Christians to starve the hungry, gut health care, and deport the stranger to enrich themselves. It’s astoundingly anti-Christ.

I love seeing that Texas Dem Rep Jasmine Crockett is seriously considering a Senate Campaign to replace Rep Sen John Cornyn. Jasmine would make an excellent Senator, because she will continue to fight passionately for her Constituents. Texas... you need Senator Crockett!

The largest war ship in the world has been moved to the Caribbean, along with other ships, bombers, amphibious vehicles and more.
That’s a lot of firepower to stop small vessels carrying drugs.
It looks a lot more like preparation for war.
Congress needs to get involved before it’s too late.

Q: Gov. Pritzker has asked for Operation Midway Blitz to be paused for the holiday weekend. Are you willing to do that?
NOEM: No, we're absolutely not willing to put on pause any work we will do to keep communities safe. The fact Gov. Pritzker is asking for that is shameful.

DHS says our new piece is "dishonest, slanted, and fundamentally inaccurate" but won't say why. Here's the story where we show with evidence that DHS spliced together clips spanning years and multiple locations to create its own reality. Gift link wapo.st/4nuDGwf

58 billionaire spenders have spent over $18.4M in the NYC mayoral race to boost Cuomo and attack Zohran Mamdani.
Why are they so scared of Zohran?
Because they know he will end their unchecked power over working people and build a city that works for the working class.
