This is priceless. Check out how local news is reporting on Sen Eric Schmidt’s clown-show grilling of Jack Smith. They found Jack Smith at the game… “Top corner, section 109, row 1. In fact, that seat doesn’t even exist in Atlanta.”

You don't solve a budget shortfall by auctioning off 45 million acres of national forest to the timber industry. It's not a management plan; it's a taxpayer-funded liquidation of public land. Demand your representative block this corporate giveaway: 👇 actionnetwork.org/letters/tell...

#MI Every vote in DC is bought with corporate cash. Senate candidate Abdul El Sayed has never taken a dime of it. That's not a talking point. That's the difference between a senator who answers to you & one who answers to donors (Rogers). Vote 2 end corruption. Elect Abdul! #ResistanceUnited

Pete Hegseth is the most incompetent person in the Trump regime — with the exception of Trump himself — and a clear and present danger to the entire world If Trump won’t fire him, Democrats should impeach him when (hopefully) they take over the House and Senate next January.

The amount of Amazon workers relying on SNAP and Medicaid has nearly tripled since 2020. — while Amazon’s annual profits soared by over 550%. It’s the same story everywhere: corporate profits are at record highs, while workers’ share of the economy is at a record low. We must unrig the system.

On Thursday, with hatred twisting his snarling face, Trump lunged at a woman reporter. For a moment, it looked like he was going to physically assault her. “Not you. Not you,” Trump said. Then came the lunge and the monstrous face, “Hey, not you!” #fascism
