81 years ago, FDR proposed a second Bill of Rights to guarantee every American the right to employment, healthcare, education, housing, and a living income. His words are as relevant now as they were then. Watch.

If the Democrat had been elected (if Ralph Nader hadn't run) this wouldn't have happened.
It’s been just over 20 years since the Battle of Fallujah, a bloody campaign in a destructive Iraq War that we now know was based on a lie. There were no weapons of mass destruction.

We do not have a multivarient political system that many of you think we do. It's 2 parties. You either voted for Harris or you didnt.
