Bernie's new billionaire wealth tax would raise $4.4T from the super-rich over the next decade.

That's more than enough to reverse Trump's Medicaid cuts, raise teacher pay, make childcare affordable, and build millions of affordable homes.

And guess what? The super-rich will still be super rich.

Please stop this Christian nationalist “crusade” insanity! Absolute separation of church and state is crucial!

The FDIC Is Being Dismantled—Most Won’t Realize Until It’s Too Late They are dismantling deposit protections before you notice—and making sure the wealthy move their money first. By the time the system locks down, you won’t have time to. Here’s how to get ahead of it.

Outrageous! Wasting so much treasure that should be protecting healthcare nationwide.

Guilty until proven innocent, with roadblocks thrown up all along the way? No thanks. I’ll stick with the Constitution. She needs to be impeached with the rest of these treasonous clowns

U.S. Troops Were Told Iran War Is for “Armageddon,” Return of Jesus Advocacy group reports commanders giving similar messages at more than 30 installations in every branch of the military

Speechless…These incompetent xristo-fascist chuckleheads are going to create a self-fulfilling prophecy and get us all killed. Congress?? Is anyone paying attention??

This posted by an Egyptian friend. I hope “24 hours a week” is a typo or bad translation but they did fire 90% of competence in the government, so it could be accurate

Q: "Do you think Trump should be deposed by this committee?"

HILLARY: "Absolutely. Trump has been held civilly liable for sexual assault by a jury of his peers. That is behavior that fits a pattern."

Let’s all call Massie today and get him to switch parties. Then force Gonzalez to resign. Then get the gavel, issue some subpoenas, and impeach some motherfuckers

Kids should not be in detention to begin with, let alone being raped! How many will now die from infections due to incomplete miscarriages or in child birth? We already know the state of medical care in these camps. This entire regime, right down to the last pencil pusher, is sadistic and depraved!

“Trump is incompetent & so are his advisors...An invasion of Iran would likely be so catastrophic in domestic politics that Trump would not see the end of his term, or even the end of this year, as president.”
