SEN BERNIE SANDERS: We need to cap credit card interest rates at 10%, Trump is right Senator Bernie Sanders calls Wall Street credit card practices "usury" as major banks profit from 24% average rates while borrowing at 4% from Fed.

When big banks charge 24% or 30% interest on credit cards, they are not engaged in the business of "making credit available." They are involved in extortion and loan sharking.

Yes, we need to cap credit card interest rates at 10% and stop Wall Street from ripping off Americans.

After making an appointment in advance, despite my lawful right to conduct unannounced visits, ICE let me into the detention facility at 26 Fed today, where I saw only 3 detainees & none being processed.

it is clear that ICE is rushing detained immigrants out of NY to avoid going to federal court.

Trump said the quiet part out loud: Rs โ€œshould take over the voting.โ€

We can't pass a funding bill that leaves the door open to this authoritarian brazenly promoting election manipulation.

The House must support my amendment that will block the federal government from seizing voting machines.

A True the Vote co-founder revealed it was โ€œin contact with people at DHSโ€ to discuss a federal data-sharing partnership to scrutinize voter rolls for potential noncitizens.

The comments raise concerns over the relationship between DHS and right-wing groups challenging state election systems.

Itโ€™s well past time for Kaiser to return to the table with a fair offer for their workers that includes safer staffing ratios and higher wages.

Yes, the US has more people in prison than any other country. But, it's usually poor black men. Rich WHITE MEN rarely go to prison for their crimes, the Convicted FElon is one of them. Now he is in the position of power & is trying to destroying the country so he can never go to prison at all.

In California, a bit of this corporation with ICE started in the Riverside Sheriffs Department under Chief Chad Bianco. Although CA SB 54 codifies that CA law enforcement will not coordinate with ICE immigration enforcement, Bianco publicly opposed SB 54 until public pressure led him to autocorrect.
