Meiselas: The public pressure was mounting. A 9-0 decision by the Supreme Court. Your voice matters. Senator Van Hollen showing up matters. The Trump regime can mock and post all the memes they want, but at the end of the day, the right result is finally starting to happen.

The 1% evade $163B in taxes per year.

Tesla paid $0 in federal income taxes from 2018 - 2022 & 2024.

Billionaires can write off the cost of their private jets and yachts.

While undocumented immigrants paid $96B in taxes in 2022.

The more you look into it, the crazier it gets.

The fact that the carelessness of Hegseth and the others on this text chain put our service members in danger is bad enough. The complete lack of ownership and leadership should shake our military to the core! Anyone else would at a minimum be arrested and court marshaled!
This hasn't gotten enough attention.

Very effective questioning by Rep. @crow.house.gov in span of 3 mins

1. exposes how Hegseth endangered servicemembers' lives

2. shows that a scandal upon the scandal is the failure to take responsibility

If any other service member had done this, they’d get kicked out of the service and possibly go to prison. It’s a slap in the face!
Current and former U.S. military pilots expressed bewilderment after Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth refused to acknowledge that he should not have disclosed sensitive information in an unsecured group chat.

“If you can’t admit when you’re wrong, you’re going to kill somebody,” one pilot said.

The Trump administration has set up an email (airaction@epa.gov) allowing polluters to request exemptions from nine Clean Air Act rules. Under Section 112(i)(4) of the Clean Air Act, the president has the authority to grant these exemptions through a Presidential Exemption.

These are e most important #s for the Dems. They should be tracking all local media and influencers in these states and reposting it everywhere

The economic pain tariffs can indlict on red states need to be talked about more than anything else right now. It will flip voters.

This. Touch grass. Take a few deep breaths. Stream “The Wild Robot” and have a piece of pie. Watch Planet Earth.

We fight again tomorrow. Non-violently. Don’t play yourself.
Anecdotal, but I'm definitely noticing an uptick in advocacy for violence here. About which I'll say only this: Promoting violence on social media is the work of trolls and fools, those eager to bait others into implicating themselves in the age of surveillance or fools rushing to the gulag.

These are bold and wild allegations from the FBI, which is moving to criminalize organizations like Habitat for Humanity for receiving grants from the EPA.

In a court filing, Citibank disclosed that it had been directed by the FBI to freeze the bank accounts of these groups.

We need to expand access to good-paying jobs that require training and credentialing.

My bipartisan legislation will allow Americans to use their “529” educational savings to pay for training and certification outside of a four-year degree.

RFK Jr. said he'd "clean up corruption" as HHS Secretary.

So why'd he have dinner with Big Pharma executives at Mar-a-Lago with Trump?

The American people deserve to know what kind of deals might have been made at those "million-dollar" dinners.
