Lots of folks are comparing McConnell’s vote today to Feinstein’s finals days in the senate. The main difference is that Feinstein was co-sponsoring legislation to expand voting rights, while McConnell voted to cut SNAP and end environmental protections.

Socialism is what they called public power.

Socialism is what they called social security.

Socialism is what they called the growth of free and independent labor organizations.

Socialism is their name for almost anything that helps all the people.

The lesson of history is that tyrants cannot be appeased.

Appeasement only feeds their insatiable hunger for power.

Tyrants prey on people who feel unsafe and vulnerable.

But without mass submission, a tyrant is powerless.

Remember this.

A major new report reveals the Pentagon secretly placed right-wing influencers with large online followings into government roles while they publicly defended Pete Hegseth.

And the details of what some of them were doing inside the Pentagon raise even bigger questions.

The Democratic Party has an opportunity to once again become the party of working Americans, rather than the party of corporate America. It is more urgent than at any time since the Great Depression that Democrats act on this opportunity.

The Democratic Party needs the big ideas of candidates like Angie Nixon.

Angie Nixon’s 12-point win is the latest boost to the Democratic Party’s progressive wing, which has secured primary victories in Minnesota, New York and Colorado.

gut-wrenching but don't look away.

what's the commonality? very little daylight between repugnant abuse of female detainees and women (mostly Black and Brown) with high-risk pregnancies in red-fascist states

trigger warning obviously.
This should horrify all of us!

Women in ICE detention underwent invasive medical procedures without informed consent. Senator Jon Ossoff’s bipartisan investigation called the findings “nightmarish & disgraceful”

Everyone deserves dignity, bodily autonomy & human rights!

Wal-Mart calls the cops on a black woman who they think stole something. In the end nothing was stolen, but the cops riddle the car with bullets as she tries to leave the parking lot. Murdering a baby. Wal-Mart is responsible. The police are responsible and justice must be served.

Apparently Susie Wiles was vehemently opposed to appointing Pulte as DNI, and will now quit because Trump is insulting her by refusing to listen to her well founded opinion of such a terrible appointment.

If this happens, the WH Trump Train comes off the rails.
