Goldman: This guy is so clearly trying to follow the Putin model—using the government to make money, making sure his allies control the most important companies in the country, including our media companies, doling out money by deregulating their industries, and taking money from them in return…

Mike Johnson has lost control of the House, as we continue to push through petitions to force the votes he tries so hard to run from.

Congress may be closed for the Holiday, but their inboxes aren’t. Let’s flood them with messages and urge them to vote yes on extending ACA tax credits!
Tell Congress: Demand Speaker Johnson hold a vote IMMEDIATELY on the ACA tax credit extension
Contact Congress today!

Who’s gonna tell him?

Trump is bragging about giving Tina Peters a “full pardon” — for Colorado state crimes he has zero legal authority to pardon.

He’s literally out here promising magic powers he doesn’t have.
A wannabe dictator who doesn’t even understand the job.

Dear the media,

When the US president claims he brokered a peace deal in a place with active combat—eg Rwanda and Congo—the story is (1) fighting rages on, and (2) US president lies.

The story is not “president touts historic peace deal.” A peace deal involves peace.

Sincerely,
Factual reality

AI may save Trump’s GDP numbers, but it won’t do much good for employment, at least not in the short-run.

ICYMI — “I identified myself as a U.S. citizen and a veteran, but that didn't matter. ICE Agents smashed my window, sprayed tear gas and pepper spray into my car, dragged me out… this experience violated the very principles I fought to defend.”

MINNEAPOLIS: “All I did was step outside as a Somali American citizen, and I got chased by a masked person, assaulted, kidnapped. It was inhumane. If this is what’s happening to a 🇺🇸 citizen on camera, imagine what could happen to your loved ones.”

Chicago is where Michelle was raised, where I got my start as an organizer, and where we built a family together. When the Obama Presidential Center opens next June, it will be our way to give back to a city that has given us so much. obama.org/presidential-center
