The oligarchy came out in full force against Zohran Mamdani's fight for a more affordable NYC.

It didn't matter.

Let his victory in the face of Big Money serve as a reminder that people have the power.

as a Colorado resident who voted painlessly almost 3 weeks ago: every state should just mail your ballot to you, along with a list of stuff you're voting on this year—and once your state begins doing this you will understand how blatantly disenfranchising it is that most states *do not* do this

Gonzalez: I don't care what your job is. I don't care what part of the state you live in. I don't care where you came from. You have more in common with an undocumented farm worker than you did with the fucking billionaires who are causing this problem in the first place

"We've spent a lot of money on the military and now they have nothing to do so we might as well let the president use it domestically to satisfy his own petty grudges" is precisely why the Founders feared a standing army.

I mean, it's pretty much fucking verbatim.
Comer: "We're gonna support doing this in other cities if it works out in Washington DC. We spend a lot on our military. Our military has been in many countries around the world for the past two decades walking the streets trying to reduce crime. We need to focus on the big cities in America now."

90 years ago today, Social Security became law, transforming life for seniors and giving Americans the chance to retire with dignity and security.

That promise is as vital today as it was then, and I’ll never stop fighting to protect it for every American.

Last night, the Republican majority on the Albuquerque Land Use Committee voted down proposals for tenant protections and expanding safe outdoor spaces. The MAGA agenda isn’t interested in solving the homeless crisis, but instead wants to use it to fear monger for expanded police presence.

I'm pretty sure that "Protect and Serve" wasn't meant to include zip-tying unarmed elderly & disabled in wheelchairs for being mouthy and challenging the powerful.

You're protecting the oligarchs instead of the people.

Sarah Ortiz has spent years trying to prove that her ex used her personal information to rack up $45,926 of debt in her name without her knowledge.

Unfortunately, Sarah's story isn't new.

Scores of women across the country are victims of coerced debt—and it's ridiculously hard to crack down on.
She escaped her abuser. But not before he buried her in debt.
This is how coerced debt haunts survivors of domestic abuse.
