No Kings Day in June may have been the biggest day of protests in US history.

October 18 is going to be even bigger: www.nokings.org?SQF_SOURCE=i...

Agree with all of this. Dems did good in the Senate. Republicans are scared and trying to push this through before public opposition builds. Now's the time make some noise if you've got a GOP rep - let them know you and their constituents are watching closely.

Undocumented immigrants paid an effective federal income tax rate of 5.27% in 2022.

That means they paid a higher effective tax rate than 5 of the richest Americans…and a higher effective tax rate than 55 mega corporations.

So let me ask you: who are the real freeloaders?

Britain: Ho ho! No country can ever outdo the self-inflicted damage of Brexit!

America: Hold my watery beer.

The only thing being liberated today is money from the bank accounts of hard-working Americans.

The post reads: "I learned this week that you can put our troops’ lives in danger, compromise our national security, and violate the Espionage Act. And the government will do nothing. But if you write an editorial for your school newspaper that Trump doesn’t like, you will be abducted on the street and disappear."

This is horrifyingly correct.

It seems like when you write a decision giving the President king-like powers, you shouldn't be indignant when he acts like a king.

Over 100,000 seats are up for grabs in 2025 — governors, mayors, city councils, state representatives, judges, school boards, and more.

Donald Trump has reportedly spent $18 million worth of taxpayer money to play golf since his inauguration.

This is happening as he slashes the federal workforce, guts funding for vital programs, and tees up major cuts to Medicaid to pay for more tax cuts for the rich.

By moving to the so-called “center,” Democrats have failed to fight the forces that led us to Donald Trump: widening inequality, economic insecurity, and the unchecked political power of corporations and the rich. Watch. The Failures of “Centrism”

There is no "center" between decency and indecency, between democracy and authoritarianism, between a government of billionaires and a government of the people.

If Democrats move to "the center", they will pave the way for the next Trump.

Thank you for sharing this! I have completed all three steps ❤️

FREEDOM TO FLY: Take Action to Protect Trans Passport Access | A4TE The U.S. Department of State has opened public comment periods on three important passport applications, and we must flood all three with our opposition to anti-trans changes before it's too late.

If you have trans people in your life (me, for instance) please take 5 minutes out of your day to do this.

The federal government is trying to make trans people use their sex at birth in their passports. What a bunch of turds! This one small thing can help.

Opinion | Trump’s Revenge Tour Finds Its True Target (Gift Article) It is hard to describe the president’s first month and a half in office as something other than a retribution campaign against the American people.

Socialism is what they called public power. 

Socialism is what they called social security. 
 
Socialism is what they called the growth of free and independent labor organizations.
 
Socialism is their name for almost anything that helps all the people.
