What I always hear: “We can’t afford to pay our workers more than $15 an hour.”
What I never hear: “We can’t afford to pay our CEO millions of dollars a year.”

Trump claims he wants to lower housing costs, but his allies in the House just axed a bipartisan bill that UNANIMOUSLY passed the Senate to do just that.
If Republicans keep blocking legislation to cut housing costs, Democrats will pass it ourselves when we take back Congress.

Hegseth reversed the policy Mark Esper put in place in 2020, which was designed to prevent “discrimination, prejudice, and bias in all ranks.” Hegseth wants to know what they look like when these decisions are made.

I’d like Republicans to be seriously asked to justify calling random drug runners terrorists.(e.g. Tom Cotton yesterday on the shipwrecked “narcoterrorists” we killed) and random liberals communists” (e.g. Stephen Miller today on the Department of Education).
