"Taxing trust fund kids to create a trust fund for all America's kids."

We DEFINITELY want to own that phrase and keep it alive.

THAT'S A WINNER.

Senators on the brink of retirement who lived full, wealthy lives and never feared the loss of their own healthcare voting for their constituents to die from their inability to afford the same is treasonous

It would cost $38 billion dollars to extend the Affordable Care Act subsidies for another year and ensure Americans don’t lose their healthcare.

The republicans said no.

Trump sent $40 billion to Argentina and they didn’t object.

Argentina first, America last.

Any fecking church that isn't offering a huge Thanksgiving meal free to its community should IMMEDIATELY lose tax-exempt status.

I hear American Indians collectively "hmmph-ing" when they hear of T-Rump stealing food from the starving at Thanksgiving. It's an understandable reflex.

A small group of individuals stealing from and then starving a mass group of natives is WAY CLOSER to the REAL story of Thanksgiving celebration than the one we pretend to be it's origin.

If you imagine white hoods on horseback in 1890 instead of masks in Suburbans in 2025 you'd have EXACTLY the right vibe.

There’s a disturbing lack of outrage over ICE’s aggressive tackling and arrest of a non verbal autistic man in Chicago.

Just like the lack of outrage over Rodney Taylor, a disabled double amputee who’s been held in solitary for months.

Disabled lives matter too!
Disabled People are Being Mistreated in ICE Detention Facilities
Why is no one talking about it? Where's the media? Where's the public outcry? Another example of the pervasive nature of ableism and how society views disabled people as expendable.

Maybe Van Gogh just had great vision across a broader EM spectrum? He was just painting the surface of Jupiter as he viewed it.

I want ANY politician commenting on prices and affordability to IMMEDIATELY be asked when EXACTLY was the last time they went to a grocery store and filled up a fecking basket with a week's (or more) groceries.

I can't be bought by T-Rump for a measly $2000 but I don't mind him trying.

It's the Affordable Care Act. Have some fecking discipline. Stop falling for the GOP okey-doke. It's the AFFORDABLE CARE ACT.

January 1941 to '42 was pretty rough. January 1929 to 1930 sucked too. January 1861 to 1862 wasn't exactly a banner 12 months for America either. Just saying, we're a bit self-centered and narcissistic.

Has America ever seen a more disastrous administration after just 10 months?

It is in the name.
Socialism is what they called public power.

Socialism is what they called social security.

Socialism is what they called the growth of free and independent labor organizations.

Socialism is their name for almost anything that helps all the people.
