Billie Eilish asked an important question: "If you’re a billionaire, why are you a billionaire?"

There are FIVE ways to accumulate a billion dollars:

1) Profiting from a monopoly
2) Insider-trading
3) Political payoffs
4) Fraud
5) Inheritance

Billionaires are the result of a failed system.

The Dems who are caving are doing so not because their base wants them to,

not because the voters want them to,

not because the fed workers and SNAP recipients want them to…

they are caving because their DONORS want them to.

And that’s really all that ever matters to the corrupt

Caving on a deal that doesn’t fix health care is, and always has been, a giant betrayal of the American people.

Hold the line. Save health care. I’m a NO on anything that doesn’t extend ACA subsidies.

I don’t think anyone is prepared for what they just did w/ ICE.

This is not a simple budget increase. It is an explosion - making ICE bigger than the FBI, US Bureau of Prisons, DEA,& others combined.

It is setting up to make what’s happening now look like child’s play. And people are disappearing.

100% agree

The Texas-based rock band Lord Buffalo has been forced to cancel their tour of Europe after Customs and Border Protection agents snatched their drummer off the plane.

Local band looks back on hit rock song featured in billion-dollar game Members of The Fall of Troy reflect on the 20th anniversary of their album “Doppelgänger” and the lead single “F.C.P.R.E.M.I.X.,” that was featured in Guitar Hero III.

One of my favorite records that I’ve produced.

The oil industry buys off Congress. No action on climate.

The NRA buys off Congress. No action on guns.

Insurance companies buy off Congress. No action on health care.

The list goes on and on.

Money in politics is the root of our dysfunction.

I’m the Canadian who was detained by Ice for two weeks. It felt like I had been kidnapped I was stuck in a freezing cell without explanation despite eventually having lawyers and media attention. Yet, compared with others, I was lucky

WTAF

Among the material devastation to everyday people, Senate Dems have now blown a hole in their ability to work with the House.

We had an agreed upon plan, House took immense risk, then Senate turned around midway and destroyed it w/ a fear-based, inexplicable abdication.

They own what happens next.

King County Constituent here please vote no on Cloture!

Bernie Sanders Is Showing Democrats How It’s Done The Vermont senator is taking his anti-Trump tour to red America—and it’s a smash hit.

"By rejecting passivity, Sanders is also doing more to actually put Republicans—who’ve recently been ordered to abandon town halls in the wake of mounting anger from their own voters—under pressure."

🚨👇🏽

Make the damn calls!
Insist that the rest of the Senate NOT follow Schumer’s lead in selling us out!

They’re either with us or against us.

2026 is coming. 🗳️

Fearing repercussions from your government. Fearing the sudden loss of healthcare for your whole family. Fearing that what the government intends for you is mere sadism—trauma without purpose or justification. This is what evil men do when we let them spend a lifetime doing evil without consequence.

This is a very helpful read, and you don’t need a law degree to understand it.

No one's blaming Democrats for causing this crisis, but yes, many of them are failing to meet this moment.

One Democratic senator could bring the chamber to a halt. House Dems can go to fed agencies being gutted by Musk with cameras in tow. Governors can push back. State AGs can bring lawsuits.

Enough. The Democrats must shut down the Senate and use their power. Stop voting for these idiots. Stop all unanimous consent. Demand answers. Filibuster. Where is the fucking outrage?

LGBTQ youth are calling crisis hotlines in record numbers

Fears have escalated with the Trump³⁴'s anti-LGBTQ actions and the release of his J6 goons onto our streets

Image below has hotline numbers that can help

We have to stick together. We must remain visible. We can not obey in advance

If you’re wondering what message democrats should be broadcasting for the next few years, here it is.

“We’re going to DESTROY billionaires. Over the past few decades they’ve stolen trillions from you, and we’re going to TAKE IT FROM THEM AND GIVE IT BACK TO YOU.”

That’s it. Say it loud & MEAN IT.
