Retired old guy worried about losing our democracy. Overturn Citizens United. Tax the churches. Get rid of the electoral college. Ending a pregnancy is a woman’s choice.

If this country was truly “pro-life,” we would have Medicare for All, a Green New Deal, gun reform, universal child care, and a living wage.

The right-wing agenda isn’t about “life.”

It’s about control.

Postmaster General David Steiner's admission conflicted with a rule the USPS adopted under his watch last year.

The rule said the agency “does not administer elections, establish the rules or deadlines that govern elections, or determine whether or how election jurisdictions utilize the mail.”

Today marks four years since the Supreme Court ended the constitutional right to abortion.

Now, reproductive freedoms are under sustained attack across the country, regularly endangering the lives of those in need of care.

We must protect reproductive health care at all costs.

This entire Trump administration belongs behind bars!
PETERS: If a state refuses to turn their absentee voter list to the federal govt, will Postal Service still mail their ballots under this proposed rule?

STEINER: No

PETERS: So it basically coerces states to hand over their absentee voter rolls or face consequences of not being able to vote by mail

Trump won't sign a bipartisan housing affordability bill, which sets restrictions on private equity ownership of homes.

Why?

He wants Congress to pass a racist voter suppression bill that's attempting to address a problem that doesn't exist.

Meanwhile, he calls the affordability crisis a "hoax."

NEW: Just hours before a planned bill-signing ceremony, Trump said he would not sign a bipartisan bill aimed at increasing housing supply and lowering costs until Congress passes the SAVE Act.

The anti-voting bill has been stalled in the Senate despite repeated pressure from Trump to advance it.

The question inside Trump's White House wasn't whether suspending habeas corpus was a good idea. It was how much the administration could get away with before the courts stopped them.
That's a warning worth paying attention to.
