A Black man was killed by ICE (off duty) in Los Angeles on New Year’s Eve. And like Renée Good, he was an American citizen. But most people have not heard about Keith Porter. I need y’all to realize this. Black people experience this lack of visibility all the time when it comes to being victims.

America’s vicious cycle: Corporations crush workers to protect their bottom lines, then use their profits to lobby for policies that allow them to keep crushing workers. Labor Day is the perfect time to remind ourselves it doesn’t have to be this way. youtu.be/JSralhrpK44?feature=shared

Just a random reminder that trickle-down economics was invented by conservatives in the 1980s to justify massive tax cuts for the wealthy and corporations. It’s been nothing short of a disaster.

Donald Trump turned a booming economy into a stagnant one in record time. His war on affordability and small businesses are having real impacts — from his chaotic tariffs to his job and economy-killing immigration raids. California will continue to fight back.

Trump's latest push to suppress voting rights: eliminating mail-in voting. He knows his extremist policies are wildly unpopular going into the 2026 election, so he's attacking free and fair elections using misinformation & conspiracy theories.

Palantir is making enormous profits off of genocide, surveillance, and deportation. Their warmongering, chauvinistic executives are building a fascistic surveillance state that uses AI weapons to wipe out masses of people. The people of Denver are going to kick the war profiteers out of their city.

Novo Nordisk’s move to cut the price of Ozempic to $499 for the uninsured is a modest step forward, but let’s not forget. Ozempic costs just $59 in Germany while it costs less than $5 to make. The U.S. must no longer pay the highest prices in the world for prescription drugs.

The occupation of our capital city is not “a distraction.” It’s part of the dictator’s playbook. The attempt to rig the rules of the next election is not “a distraction.” It’s a direct threat to the will of the voters. Fighting for our democracy is not a distraction.

The most powerful force in American politics today is antiestablishment rage at a system that’s rigged against most people. Democrats should ignore the carping of corporate and Wall Street Democrats and embrace Mamdani and other young progressives as the future of the party.

Trump's BLS pick EJ Antoni has said that Social Security, America's greatest anti-poverty program, is a "Ponzi scheme" that needs to be sunset. Reminder that BLS data is what determines annual cost-of-living adjustments for Social Security benefits. This is a five-alarm fire.
