This nation and its public spaces are a sacred trust held for the people. Government power is merely delegated and remains conditional on the protection of our liberty. When that trust is broken, it is our duty to unite, stand firm, and restore.

Trump announced yesterday he will repurpose huge chunks of federal lands to host AI data centers. This massive giveaway to Big Tech comes despite surging public opposition to data centers— including among Trump's own voters.

It’s corruption on steroids in plain sight. He doesn’t even try to hide that he’s looting US and cashing in on insider trading. He’s the most corrupt president in American history.

“Many, many people died of Covid after I left office because while I was in office I let it rage throughout the population with my lies, neglect, and incompetence! Thank you for your attention to this matter.”

I'm old enough to remember when polio put my friends into iron lungs. We dutifully lined up at school to get vaccinated. We eradicated the disease. We protected the common good and saved lives. What RFK Jr. is doing to public health in America is a disgrace.

Under Trump: -Household electricity costs are up 18% -Ground beef prices are up 22% -Gas prices are up 40% -ACA out-of-pocket premiums are up 58% -Inflation is at a three-year high "New Golden Age" for who?

Back when I was a young man, CEOs made about 20 times the salary of their employees. Today a typical CEO makes over 280 times more. Here's what we can do about it.

This is probably the biggest political stunt we’ve seen since - ever. Trump is desperate to disrupt the elections, desperate to stay in the White House and desperate to stay out of prison. None of this is going to work though. #Pinks ⚖️

It's a sign of how shockingly corrupt this country has become that a nominee for Attorney General is given a hearing by the Senate *the very same week* he has been referred by a judge for possible disbarment for unethical behavior. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Mamdani: "Those who led through exclusion & isolation have tried to win power & enrich themselves by turning us against one another ... today, too many of our leaders do not believe in a vision of this nation as an asylum for the persecuted, but rather as one that persecutes those seeking asylum"

On this July 4 — the 250th anniversary of the start of this country — many people believe that celebrating America means waving the flag or standing for the national anthem or shouting, “America First.” That’s not what real patriotism is. Let me explain.
