No, that is not the fundamental divide of the Dem Party.

The fundamental divide is between 1) those still pretending Trump is the anomalous cause of the democracy/oligarchy crisis and 2) those who know Trump is the culmination/symptom of both parties’ leaders colluding to create that crisis.

Never, ever forget that they slashed billionaire taxes down to practically nothing and then let them make all their money in completely tax-free ways.

And then they told you it would be "unfair" to raise taxes on the rich so we can pay for things like healthcare.

Insane.

Health Insurers Push Huge Premium Hikes As Profits Soar Health insurance companies are asking state regulators to approve eye-popping rate increases nationwide — reaching 66 percent for some policies.

24 million Americans are a few months away from be priced out of their medical care, and yet the big topic in The Discourse is a Sydney Sweeney jeans ad.

Don't Look Up was a documentary.

Trump and the Republicans just passed a budget that guts healthcare and food assistance in order to give billionaires more tax breaks.

But we don't despair when something isn't right.

We get in good trouble. #GoodTroubleLivesOn

i honestly cannot wait to vote for Kat Abughazaleh

Never trust anyone who would rather take away people’s healthcare than make billionaires pay their fair share in taxes.

See: every single Republican member of Congress who just voted for Trump’s latest tax plan.

Never forget that 269 Republicans voted to rip healthcare and food away from families to finance tax breaks for billionaires.

Don't let them live that down.

Republicans will try to ignore the devastation their disastrous reconciliation bill will cause. We won’t.

We’re going to make them explain what happens when 16 million lose their health care and nursing homes and hospitals are forced to shut down or limit services.

Medicare for All - "That's socialism!"

Social Security - "That's socialism!"

Debt free education - "That's socialism!"

Universal childcare - "That's socialism!"

$1 trillion+ in tax cuts for the wealthy...

"That's just how it is."

I cannot emphasize enough how true & real this is.

In almost anywhere on the political spectrum you ID with or major issue, there’s probably a bot/troll operation to encourage your rage and vitriol.

And how/where that rage gets directed, esp understandable rage, is what they are out to influence.

You’re right to be angry. The system’s been rigged against you, and it’s been ripping you off for over 40 years. The real fix?

Rewriting the rules of the economy—not handing the keys to wannabe dictators.

The damage Trump's budget bill will cause is almost impossible to comprehend. Republicans must pay the price for it at the ballot box. [Cartoon by Adam Zyglis]

The recipe for economic growth isn’t tax cuts for the rich.

It’s investment in our people — in health care, infrastructure and education — to build a strong middle class.

You don't grow the economy through trickle-down nonsense — yet that's what this GOP budget is all about.

Who’s Afraid Of Zohran Mamdani? The mayoral candidate defeated the master plan for the first time ever — and that’s prompted an elite panic about who gets to control political outcomes.

Who's afraid of Zohran Mamdani?

- Billionaires who are being enriched by the affordability crisis

- Media people paid by billionaires

- Lawmakers, political operatives & think tank people bankrolled by billionaires

The US senate just declared war on the American public. A bill that destroys Medicaid while cutting taxes for the wealthiest at a time when we already have record income and wealth inequality is societal suicide.

The GOP-led Congressional Budget Office reports that the One Big Beautiful Bill will reduce the yearly income of the poorest Americans by $1,600 & increase the yearly income of the richest Americans by $12,000.

Pass it on.

When you kick people off SNAP, grocery stores lose customers.

When you kick people off healthcare, hospitals close and workers get fired.

When you raise student loan payments, consumer spending declines.

The economy will tank—but hey, at least the billionaires get a tax break.

If you are more angry at a chant directed at a genocidal army than you are at newborn babies being burned alive or suffocated under rubble, then you are a monster.

The Republican tax plan includes a sweet little favor for their private equity pals. Their bill sneakily adds two letters to the tax code—D & A—and boom: Private equity gets a massive new tax break worth nearly $179 billion.

Not for working families. Just for Wall Street.

People rightfully don’t trust politicians because they dangle positive change like a carrot that you only get after Election Day… maybe.

We don’t need a liberal Joe Rogan. We need our leaders to do good things at every possible juncture. That’s where our resources should go.

For years, anyone demanding more from Democrats was smeared as a "bro" by the party - and now Democrats are wondering why American men don't vote for them.

Can you imagine this being "normal"?

Random reminder that banning members of Congress from trading stock is a total no brainer.

They can use privileged information to make money on the stock market, while they’re supposed to be working for you.

Make no mistake — it’s legalized corruption.

Nothing has ever been achieved by saying “we can’t do that.”

We CAN have universal healthcare.

We CAN have universal childcare.

We CAN have tuition-free college.

We CAN have housing for all.

WE. CAN.

TAX REVOLT, Part Three: The Broken Promise That Changed America A president took a stand on taxes. It radicalized the Republican Party.

Really excellent new episode of our new audio series TAX REVOLT. Pass it on. www.levernews.com/tax-revolt-p...

Republicans want to keep Trump’s tax cuts for billionaires, so they’re going to strip healthcare coverage from tens of millions of Americans to pay for them—because nothing says “fiscal responsibility” like stealing healthcare from the poor to pay for yachts.

It’s important to remember that this country once carried out a genocide against Indigenous people and enslaved Black people.

What we are seeing today is not unprecedented and the ways to fight back have been put to practice before.

The threat to our rights is not new.
