Supreme Court poised to permanently entrench Republican rule
The latest move by SCOTUS is a "five alarm fire"
"If SCOTUS guts the Voting Rights Act, the prospect of Republicans stealing only 5 seats in Texas will feel quaint. While California must counteract what the GOP is doing in Texas, we donβt have enough seats to counteract what they could do if the VRA if gutted. It cement permanent GOP rule."

CEO pay is up 1,085% since 1978, while typical worker pay is up just 24%.Β
Why do we always hear "we can't afford to pay our workers more" but never "we can't afford to pay our CEO more"?

I love America and am proud of much that this nation has accomplished.
But, undeniably, we now face a brutal set of crises, headed by the decline of democracy and deterioration of the rule of law.
How did we get here? I explore this in my new book. More info here: https://sites.prh.com/reich

Listen up, Democrats. Get your butts into special legislative sessions in all the blue states and gerrymander the hell out of your states. The Republicans are going to cheat to keep control of Congress.

If he builds his golden ballroom, how soon can it be torn down?
Indeed, letβs remember many of these heinous acts can be overturned. None of this despicable demolition of our government and values is unchangeable. But it requires ending his lawless regime & returning power to responsible leaders.

The courts continue to affirm what should be obvious, these lawless raids β grabbing people off the street based on little more than how they look β have got to stop.

If one of your followers is tired of seeing you post about Epsteinβ¦as one follower on Threads just told me someone had told them about their Epstein postβ¦thatβs a sign theyβre on here for personal entertainmentβ¦and not to focus on the political gifts we get handed to fight fascism.

Iβm not trying to be a killer of hope, but if we donβt do something to stop this shit before the midterms, there wonβt be any free fair elections.
Texasβ gerrymandered new map is just the beginning and Trump has his hands all in the voting machines and their software.

Another question: At a club with over 150 employees, how did Donald Trump know that a 15-year-old girl was no longer working in the spa? He said he knew when Epstein "stole" her. It's not like Donald is a man known for paying attention to every little detail.

Trump has no way out of the Epstein problem; he can either continue to stonewall, which makes him look guilty, or he can release everything, which may make him look even guiltier. https://trib.al/7K8Q9eZ

The current Republican Party no longer pretends to support democracy. They believe they deserve to be in charge at all costs, and have turned to authoritarianism.
They must never be in power again.
