They’re illegally demolishing the Kennedy Center. Reason? President is above the State. President is above DC. President is above Congress. President is above the Courts. President is above the law. President is above the Constitution. No one can legally stop him I guess.

A data center in New Jersey spilled 5,000 gallons of diesel fuel into a local creek, putting the area’s entire river system at risk.

Is it any wonder nearly 70 percent of Americans don’t want a data center in their community?

Remember: no judge or jury has found these boats were trafficking drugs. We're simply taking Trump's word for it.

He’s unilaterally acting as judge, jury, and executioner.

Elon Musk is bankrolling an ad campaign to get you to check your voter registration through an innocent-sounding website.

But his real goal is to collect and sell your personal data to advertising companies, Big Tech, and other Republican PACs.

The slick voter registration website, currently being promoted to millions of people, is a digital surveillance machine.

One of the biggest legacies of 9/11 was the rapid growth of mass surveillance.

Whether it's the PATRIOT Act, Palantir, or Flock cameras, Americans don't want more erosions of our civil liberties in the name of "security."

See this chart?

Workers’ share of the nation’s income is at the lowest it’s been since records began in 1947. Corporate profits’ share, on the other hand, is the highest it’s been since 1950.

This is why we must build back worker power.
