I see it. I have lived it. 83 years ago, the U.S. government turned upon a group of its own citizens and residents and sent them to internment camps without due process. I was there among them. American fascism is back. It is here. It is now.

Citizens United is among the worst decisions in history. It corrupts our system every day.

Trump's pause was an intentional manipulation of the markets so his billionaire donors know when to buy & sell to maximize profit off of YOUR losses.

THIS IS INSIDER TRADING!

Is this what you voted for?

Why Trump Paused the Tariffs
A stock-market swoon, or even a recession, might not frighten him, but the prospect of a 2008-style meltdown apparently still does.

In less than one week, many Americans will no longer be able to apply for Social Security benefits over the phone, setting the stage for disruptions and upheaval.

Nearly 6 million seniors live more than 46.6 miles, roundtrip, from a field office, per a new analysis. trib.al/5XSPqyL

Yes, the information in the Signal group chat was classified.

Yes, this could have put our servicemembers in harm’s way.

No, Hegseth and Waltz have not learned their lesson.

And no, they are not capable of continuing to serve in their roles.

They need to RESIGN.

Tonight an unbelievable **34,000 people** gathered for our Denver rally to take on billionaires and win our country back.

This was the largest political gathering in Denver since Obama in 2008.

Also bigger than the 2024 DNC.

And the largest ever rally in Bernie’s career (and obviously, mine too).

Sen. Mark Kelly is ditching his Tesla
I bought a Tesla because it was fast like a rocket ship. But now every time I drive it, I feel like a rolling billboard for a man dismantling our government and hurting people. So Tesla, you’re fired!

New ride coming soon.

Gutting the Dept. of Education would be devastating to our nation's students — and our teachers.

MAGA Republicans have been waging a war on public school teachers for years.

They want public schools to fail so they can pour the money into private, for-profit schools.
The Republican War On Teachers | Robert Reich
Republicans aren’t afraid of “Critical Race Theory,” they are afraid of critical thinking. They know the biggest threat facing their party is a new multi-racial generation of young people unafraid to speak truth to power. That’s why they are waging a war on America’s teachers.

Do not let Trump gaslight you into believing he has a mandate or is all powerful.

Most Americans don't support his agenda.

There will be backlash — and we must make sure it is swift.

Today, in a meeting at the White House, the only person actually defending American interests was Zelenskyy.

Without healthy oceans, we wouldn’t just be facing hardships, we’d be facing existential collapse. The loss of oxygen, food, climate stability, water cycles, and biodiversity would make the planet uninhabitable for humans within a few generations.

If the oceans die, we die.

This. Is. Extinction.
