I’ve been in or around politics for over a half-century now.

I’ve watched as corporations and the super-rich flooded D.C. with campaign cash and ransacked our system.

It won't be easy, but here’s how we break the corporate oligarchy and return power to the people.

Mike Johnson is big mad that we forced through a petition and forced a vote on releasing the Epstein files.

It’s not at all fucked up! I feel the same. I’m retired but still work 4 days a week and never feel like going anywhere. I just want to hide in my bedroom and escape this nightmare by watching movies and zoning out. I guess we just have to hang in there!
