The effective federal corporate income tax rate: 1950: 50% 1990: 25% 2020: 13% Stop asking "but how we will pay for it?" Restore the corporate tax rate. That is how we will pay for it.

⚠️ Trump’s DOJ wants to force a purge of nearly 1 million voters in California. The push is happening against the backdrop of Trump’s crusade to seize statewide voter rolls — an effort that currently has a winless 0-15 record. Here’s what will happen next:
would like to note that an ad accusing El-Sayed of misogyny has been circulating here since McMorrow dropped out, and the Freep (who endorsed McMorrow) actually debunked it: www.freep.com/story/news/p...
New ad claiming El-Sayed disrespected women stretches its facts
Several of the claims made by an AIPAC-aligned group beg credulity.
freep.com
a really gross piece that conflates platner being accused of rape with abdul al-sayed saying something snarky about haley stevens and AIPAC. it also includes a quote from a congresswoman claiming he has "a problematic record with women" with zero evidence.

It’s like when your food is taking a long time to come out so your server brings some free bread to apologize for the wait.
I wish more journalists would point out that Sen. McConnell and Rep. Tom Kean (missed 4 months of work) are/were essentially on paid sick & medical leave. The same employment protection they’ve spent their careers blocking other Americans from having.

Here I am on the corner supporting the woman rally in Tehachapi 6=24-26. I am on the corner of the famers market every Thursday and I attend all the rallies I can. I just don't have the resources to travel far. However making a statement here in a small red town is at least something.
Big props to Brad Lander on winning his primary. Dude has done the moral thing many times and put his body on the line against ICE. He even came to Minnesota during the ICE Occupation to see the injustice firsthand. It’s nice to see moral courage rewarded by voters.
Got my #Michigan #UOCAVA primary ballot via email yesterday. If you requested email delivery, but didn't receive it yesterday, then:

Lesson learned: you ride on a #DeutschlandTicket and it fails to bring you on time to your connecting ICE, TOOBADSOSAD you're screwed. Keine Anschlussgarantie. Buy a new ICE ticket (if you can). #ThanksDB
I remember when Michelle Obama was criticised for wearing a sleeveless dress, saying her attire was inappropriate for a First Lady.
If redistricting wasn’t about racism, someone please explain to me why only black communities were redistricted and white districts were left alone?
I don't understand why redistricting chosen by voters is illegal, but redistricting rammed through by a GOP governor is fine
