Your Mother’s Day weekend reminder that the so-called β€œparty of family values” has historically blocked:

-Paid family & medical leave
-Universal childcare
-Universal pre-K
-Expanded Child Tax Credit
-Programs to support reproductive health

Doesn’t sound very pro-family to me.

Trump is attacking free speech rights by targeting some of our best Universities.Universities need to stand together to fight this encroachment of censorship.

NEWS: Tufts graduate student Rumeysa Ozturk, who was arrested for writing an op-ed criticizing her school leaders' response to the Israel-Hamas war in Gaza, has been released from ICE detention.

The judge had stated 'there is no evidence' for the Trump regime to detain her.

So the Republican Congress can pass a bill renaming the Gulf of Mexico, but can't seem to find the time to stop Trump's erosion of checks and balances or tackle rising housing and grocery costs?

Their priorities couldn’t be more clear.

This is what oligarchy is about.

While planning massive cuts to Medicaid, the Republicans are proposing to provide another $235 billion in tax breaks to the top 0.2% of households through an increase in the estate tax exemption.

The very rich get richer.Β The poor lose health care.Β Outrageous.

The Man Who Never Read the Constitution How Trump’s ignorance and defiance of the Constitution threaten American democracy.

Trump took an oath to defend the Constitution. Now he wants to ignore it. From trampling due process to musing about a third term, his disregard for the rule of law should alarm every American.

Trump's budget cuts:

-$4.5B from programs for students in high-poverty schools
-$49M from the Ed Dept's civil rights office
-$26B from state rental assistance
-$4B from low-income home energy assistance
-$20B+ from the CDC and NIH

All to give the rich another tax cut.

Walter Cronkite, who was described as the most trusted man in America, once said:

β€œFreedom of the press is not just important to democracy, it is democracy.”

Paramount: Stand up for a free press and our democracy. Do not capitulate to Trump's dangerous move to authoritarianism.

100 men vs. 1 gorilla?

How about the working class against the oligarchy?

The upward redistribution of wealth over the past 50 years has shifted $80 trillion from the bottom 90% of Americans to the top 1%.

This is the real fight we need to be talking about.

THE most important political issue facing us now is our corrupt campaign finance system & Citizens United.

As long as Musk, AIPAC & crypto money can buy politicians, we’re not living in a democracy.

We must end billionaire control of our politics and publicly fund elections.
