Republicans shut down the government to gut healthcare and bankroll Trump’s illegal power grab. We must hold the GOP accountable for causing chaos just to appease a wannabe king.

This escalation is a very dangerous moment. This is Donald's way of circumventing any block of National Guard troops by the Governor. This is also in hopes of creating a tinderbox moment that would allow him further power moves. Stay peaceful, but keep fighting, Portland!

Here's some insight into what's going on in Corporate Media today. Now we have a choice: do we reward the Walt Disney Company for reinstating Jimmy Kimmel's show to keep the money coming or do we continue to boycott to send a loud and clear message to all involved, including Trump and Carr?

In case you were wondering what the plan was, there it is: Deport all the brown people, replace them with machines or people on Medicaid.
