How messed up do you have to be to say that stripping health coverage from up to 16 million people, removing food from kids, and raising taxes on some low-income people is “immaterial”?

“OK, Boomer” just got flipped on its head. At protests across the country this past weekend, older Americans turned out in force, leading chants, waving signs and showing that resistance has no age limit. And their passion isn’t just inspiring. It might be what helps save democracy.

Commentary: First they came for the immigrants. Then they took down our Latino senator
Federal agents manhandled and cuffed U.S. Sen. Alex Padilla on Friday as he tried to ask questions of Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem. It's starting to feel like being brown is a crime.

There's not a day that ends in Y where Republicans aren’t trying to ban abortion in Congress. This time, they want to effectively ban ACA insurers from covering abortion care, AND they want to defund & shutter Planned Parenthood clinics. We need to speak up NOW to stop this bill.

A square mile doesn’t justify a $134 million military occupation, troops sleeping in squalor, or ICE agents terrorizing our communities. Americans feel unsafe. This Saturday, on #NoKingsDay, let’s show up in numbers—and send a message: we will not be ruled by a mad king.

On 6/12, DHS Sec’y Kristi Noem said “We are staying here to liberate [LA] from the socialists and the burdensome leadership this governor and mayor have placed on this country and this city.” This use of military force to displace a democratically elected is the very definition of a coup.
