The House voted to condemn “socialism” earlier this week. Listen, I’ve been in and around politics for over 50 years. I grew up during McCarthyism and the “red Scare” of the 1950s. I’ve seen all of this fear-mongering before. Here’s what’s really going on.

Republicans are trying to sneak new voter suppression measures onto a bill to ban congressional stock trading. They've also riddled the bill with loopholes that would allow members to keep holding and selling stocks — and their families to buy them on their behalf. Priorities.

The richest 0.1 percent of the global population are hiding nearly $3 trillion in offshore accounts to evade taxes — more than the wealth held by the entire bottom half of humanity. It would take about $93 billion per year to eradicate extreme hunger by 2030. Taxing the rich is a global necessity.

Bombing a hospital or a school isn’t a “miscalculation.”
Killing a paramedic isn’t “collateral damage.”
Starving civilians isn’t “negotiating tactic.”  These are war crimes.  Full stop.  Call it what it is.

It could not be more obvious that the president does not care about US service members and in fact regards their deaths as mere political inconveniences. He has more sympathy for Putin than Americans who died because he decided to wage illegal war. Just listen to him.
