Yesterday, the UN's top humanitarian official delivered his assessment of Israel's barbaric war against the Palestinian people, intentionally making life unlivable in Gaza. This will be a permanent stain on the world’s conscience. Please take a moment to watch:
We cannot allow history to repeat itself. The United States faces enormous problems here at home. We should be spending our money and our manpower rebuilding America, NOT going to war with Iran.
Trumpism isn’t just about oligarchy, authoritarianism & kleptocracy. It is the deeply held belief that the rich & powerful have the “divine right” to rule. If you’re a billionaire, you’re ENTITLED to massive tax breaks. If you’re a working stiff, you’re entitled to nothing.
Trump’s “big beautiful bill” is probably the worst piece of legislation in modern history. It attacks the most vulnerable people while giving massive tax breaks to billionaires. Please call your member of Congress. Let’s do everything we can to defeat this horrific bill.
Trump has embraced authoritarianism and engaged in horrific attacks against low-income & working class people throughout our country. But if we're smart and disciplined, we will not only get through this unprecedented crisis -- we will lay the groundwork for a more just America.
Billionaires — in both parties — decide what legislation passes and which candidates run for office. Americans understand that the political system in this country is corrupt.
If we cannot control Super PACs’ power to buy elections, the people elected to office will be responsive to the needs of the rich and powerful, rather than the needs of everyone else.
Our campaign finance system is totally corrupt — impacting BOTH political parties. If we want a government representing working families, not billionaires, we need to overturn Citizens United and move to the public funding of elections.
We are building a strong progressive grassroots movement across this country. That means: - Recruiting people to run for office - Helping people to organize their workplace - Organizing town halls, canvasses and phone banks to put pressure on Republican lawmakers
75% of Democrats want the party to move in a more progressive, pro-working class direction. Is the Party leadership listening? Or will they continue with their ideology of maintaining the status quo?
The Trump-Musk fallout is a petty fight between oligarchs. It's exactly what we should expect in a corrupt political system where billionaires buy elections. That’s why we need to overturn Citizen’s United and move to the public funding of elections.
The "big beautiful bill" epitomizes what Trumpism is all about: If you are rich and powerful, you are ENTITLED to massive tax breaks that will make you even richer. If you are working class or poor, you are entitled to NOTHING.
You don’t often hear politicians talking about raising the minimum wage, making health care affordable for all Americans, or aggressively addressing our climate crisis. Why? Because Big Money controls our political system. We must move to the public funding of elections.
In the USA, presidents do not punish or censor the media for criticizing them. Freedom of the press is what sets us apart from tin pot dictatorships and authoritarian regimes. If Trump cannot take criticism, he should get out of politics.
