Gerrymandering handed the GOP majorities in the House in 2022 and 2024.

Do you think this would have been mentioned repeatedly in the mainstream media as well as Fox News?

The challenges we now face must be met by a bold progressive populist movement that strengthens democracy and shakes up the system.

We can’t simply return to the path we were on before Trump.

We cannot accept the status quo of Big Money dominating our politics and economy.

Hochul: "This is what I call a legal insurrection ... they know they're going to lose next year. That's the only reason they're engaged in this. It also might be a nice distraction from people asking -- all of the sudden this happens when? When they refuse to release the Epstein files."

Reality: that β€œextra revenue” is higher costs paid by regular American consumers & businesses, and the β€œtax relief” is going to the rich not you.

JD is pissing πŸ’¦ on your head and telling you it’s raining β€” and @marshablackburn is using this line also as she runs for governor.

Yeah JD, we remember. We will never forget your boss was best friends with the guy who ran a literal child sex trafficking ring.

And then that guy was "silenced" forever.

And now we will just not talk about anything else until they...

Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth gleefully reposts a video of pastors insisting women shouldn't vote, echoing archaic drivel about household tyrants casting ballots for all, while he praises their retrograde gospel. #ChristianNationalism

In fairness that’s how President Trump thinks tariffs work too.

Undocumented immigrants aren’t showing up to work because they face a double threat:

πŸ“Œ ICE could roll up to the job site, because it’s easier to target hardworking people than go after real criminals.

πŸ“Œ When the work’s done, some employers refuse to pay and threaten to call ICE.

So no questions on the Sunday shows about Trump’s Secretary of Defense endorsing a video of a pastor he follows saying women shouldn’t be able to vote?

Cool, cool

Sometimes we feel like we’re going insane when we see what the media chooses to ignore

Medicare for All - "That's socialism!"

Social Security - "That's socialism!"

Debt free education - "That's socialism!"

Trump's Confederacy rises again The Lost Cause doesn't seem all that lost anymore.

"There's a critical difference between acknowledging a nation’s history and celebrating its worst moments. In Germany, they don’t erase their shameful Nazi past, but that doesn’t mean they’re erecting hagiographic statues commemorating war criminals."
