Yesterday, JD Vance, a Yale Law grad, couldn't define what "socialism" means. Instead of defining it, Vance talked about boys in girls sports. This admin has devalued its words, and would be admitting to supporting the same policies they attack others for if they told the truth. Link below ⬇️

1/ What if denying your medical treatment became a business opportunity? Medicare is testing AI-assisted reviews where private contractors share in the savings. Think about that incentive. Then ask who's protecting the patient. #DV1 #ProudBlue #Voices4Victory #USDemocracy

Q: How do you define socialism personally? JD VANCE: I think in reality what it actually means in the American context is you want to replace American workers with foreigners workers, and you want boys to play in girls' sports

Ossoff: "I think Pete Hegseth is frankly a deeply unwell person who seems to relish this kind of brutality all the while he's running a department that is falling into chaos. The guy cannot run the military competently and is spending his time with this kind of obscene medieval spectacle."

The 400 richest Americans are now worth a record $8 trillion. The entire bottom 50% of American households is worth just $4.27 trillion. Read that back. When 400 people control more wealth than half a country’s population, we have a very serious problem.

This is what ICE is. Firing repeatedly into a car with a baby inside. Whether it was negligence or deliberate, it is absolutely unjustifiable. This is literally the sort of thing that happened in Moscow during the 'Wild East' days of utter lawlessness. This is also Trump's America today.
