Americans are relearning the lesson we learned during the Gilded Age of the late 1890s, when robber barons ran the government and the economy for their own benefit: Oligarchy is incompatible with the common good.
I'm hopeful we'll respond with a new progressive movement.

The more Trump’s tyranny is exposed, the stronger the resistance. The worse it gets, the larger the backlash. The crueler and more vicious his regime becomes, the more powerful the alliances being formed at every level of society and the world to stop him. Keep up the fight.

On this day in 1868, the 14th Amendment was ratified. The text is just as clear and relevant today as it was back then. Donald Trump is trying to erase this.

BREAKING: Congress just gave final approval on a budget bill that guts Medicaid, defunds Planned Parenthood, and supercharges funding for ICE.
We the people will bear the brunt of these harmful policies — and we won’t forget who caused this devastation to our health, rights, and dignity.

Mr. President, you love playing the schoolyard bully but, at age 79, it’s time to cut it out. It’s one thing to steal one kid’s lunch money, but your bill STEALS LUNCH MONEY FROM MILLIONS OF KIDS. Now, that’s real ugly.

Jeffries, still going strong 8 hours in: "Extraordinary to me, Mr.
Speaker, that you got folks in this town talking about draining the swamp. Guess what. You are the swamp ... we've never seen anything like this -- the type of corruption that has been unleashed on the American people."

Senate Republicans just voted to take healthcare away from 17 million Americans to fund more tax cuts for billionaires. But the fight isn’t over. Trump’s Tax Scam now moves to the House & many Republicans aren’t happy with the Senate changes. Call your representative: indivisible.org/resource/cal...

Shame, shame Lisa Murkowski. You got your little goodies for Alaska and gave the middle finger to the rest of the country.
Murkowski voted yes.
Paul, Tillis, and Collins voted no.
50-50 tie. Vance broke it. The horrible bill has passed.

Every time he considers action he backs. Remember after Iran attacked us troops, shot down 200 million dollar plane, etc?
