We proved it in Wisconsin. We proved it in New York City. We proved it in dozens of special elections over the past year. People power over money!
Robert Reich@rbreich.bsky.social · 9h agoAbdul El-Sayed was outspent 9-to-1 by AIPAC and corporate Super PACs in the most expensive Senate Democratic primary of all time. Last night, he proved that organized people can beat organized money.
SHOUT OUT to Mike Luckovich: one of the all-time great political cartoonists. 🏆 With corporate media doing such a poor job in these most perilous of times, his work is more vital than ever! THANK YOU @mluckovich.bsky.social!!! 🙏

🚨Don't fall for it. Todd Blanche didn't rewrite Trump's controversial IRS deal. He released a late-night DOJ memo designed to help secure the votes for his confirmation. We read the fine print. Here's what it actually says. 👇
