We’re told there’s no money for universal healthcare or to end hunger in this country. But somehow $200 billion more for war will likely move through Congress without question.  Not another penny for another endless war.

Elon Musk’s new pay package could amount to $100B per year. That's the same as 3.2 million cashiers’ paychecks combined. It’s more than 1.4 million elementary school teachers’ paychecks. It’s more than 2 million janitors’ paychecks. Billionaire greed is out of control.

Citizens United is among the worst decisions in Supreme Court history. It's allowed billionaires to completely take over our politics and destroy our democracy. There are days when we are reminded just how pernicious that ruling was. Today is one of those days.

How we beat back the corporate takeover of America: 1. Break up corporate monopolies 2. Continue building union power 3. End Citizens United and get big money out of politics Let’s keep working to unrig the system.

Van Hollen is doing what every other democrat should be doing under this lawless power grab. The future isn't meeting the right half way like @gavinnewsom.bsky.social, it's having courage like @vanhollen.senate.gov. Go back to El Salvador. Go see Kilmar again, Andrys and everyone.

Who had the inside scoop and traded on it illegally?
The image is a screenshot of a post on X by Polymarket Intel, with the handle @Poly
..., posted 2 hours ago. The post reads: "Massive call options on $SPY were opened minutes before Trump’s 'buy' post—then surged 2100% in an hour." It includes a mention of @unusual_whales
. Below the text, there is a chart showing the price movement of $SPY call options over a few hours, with a significant spike labeled "Insiders" just before a larger spike labeled "Public." The chart indicates a rapid increase in value following Trump's post, suggesting potential insider trading activity.

Musk and Trump are trying to dismantle the VA by laying off 83,000 employees.   They are sacrificing the needs of our veterans to give tax breaks to billionaires.   That is something that the American people — Republicans, Democrats, and Independents — will never support.

Tonight an unbelievable **34,000 people** gathered for our Denver rally to take on billionaires and win our country back. This was the largest political gathering in Denver since Obama in 2008. Also bigger than the 2024 DNC. And the largest ever rally in Bernie’s career (and obviously, mine too).

I was pleased to meet today with Dr. Tedros, head of the World Health Organization. In order to combat future pandemics there must be global cooperation. Trump’s withdrawal from the WHO puts us, and people around the world, at greater risk of preventable deaths.

As Trump tries to dismantle the Department of Education, remember that his plan to cut the corporate tax rate to 15% would give the 100 largest corporations a tax cut larger than the entire department's K-12 budget. Really think about how twisted this all is.

Funny....All of a sudden, no one's performing arbitrary sex-change operations on unexpecting grade-schoolers anymore.

This Bernie Sanders @sanders.senate.gov response is excellent. It's the depth, it's the honesty, it speaks to the corruption in our politics. It should have been Bernie. 2016, 2020 and today. And yeah, Fox News shared it. www.youtube.com/live/3pel5yD...

Medicaid covers... -40% of births nationwide -50% of kids with special needs -72 million people in total Remember this as Republicans move to gut the program to finance tax cuts that will overwhelmingly go to the richest 1% of Americans.  "Party of family values."

"We call on the world to stop the injustice & stop the ethnic cleansing of the Palestinian people," says Oscar winner Basel Adra to applause from the audience. 'No Other Land' just won the Best Documentary Oscar. Also a fantastic speech from fellow winner Yuval Abraham on "ethnic supremacy".

Elon Musk called Social Security a "ponzi scheme." This is absolute rubbish. Social Security has paid every benefit owed to every eligible American for 85 years. Perhaps the bigger "ponzi scheme" is the $38 billion spent by taxpayers to prop up his corporations?

This is what House Republicans voted for tonight. Another reminder that we have socialism for the rich, harsh capitalism for the rest.
