A House panel is holding a hearing on a proposed ban on Congressional stock trading. This ban is long overdue. Why should members of Congress be able to use privileged information to make money on the stock market, while they’re supposed to be working for you?

Five corporations control 90% of the US media market. Airlines merged from 12 major carriers in 1980 to 4 today. Four giants control 80% of meat processing. A handful of companies control the pharmaceutical industry. The evidence of corporate concentration is everywhere.

Yikes 😬 an official U.S. government account just referred to Americans as “imbecilic morons.” That’s… a choice.

I know the hypocrisy is part of the point and that none of these people actually stand for anything beyond, power, money, and making others suffer, but it’s still doing my head in to see the “what about the children” crowd pivot to a pro-pedophilia stance this fast.

abused, put them in a room w/a man who “pretends” 2 care, that child will bel he is better then the rest of her abusers. So was Marge “a perfect gentleman” as Giuffre stated, or was he just not as horrific as the rest? Giuffre committed suicide in Feb, right after Marge was sworn in. (2/3)

I had a thought. It’s horrendous, but hear me out. Virginia Giuffre stated “Marge was a perfect gentleman.” We learned via released emails that Marge spent hours w/ Giuffre alone as a child. If u take a child who has been violated in the worst way by many, & (1/3)

Folks, those trying to raise the issue of what is a minor and what is a child (like making a point of calling teenagers children), they are DISTRACTING us all from what matters: punishing those who abuse minors. That is the only thing to focus on. They can argue 'what's a child' in court later. 🧵

Yeah, he knows that Ben.

Old enough to remember when raping children was a dealbreaker in politics.

TENNESSEAN: “Ethics complaint filed claiming 8 Senators ― including @MarshaBlackburn & @SenatorHagerty ― violated conflict of interest rules by supporting a provision allowing them to sue the government for millions…” (Finally they cover this story! 👏🏽) www.tennessean.com/story/news/p...

Starbucks’ CEO makes 6,666x what the average @sbworkersunited.org barista does. It would take less than one day of sales to finalize a fair contract. Baristas at Starbucks corporate stores nationwide are on strike to fight this corporate greed and get the fair contract they deserve.

This is s good video to bookmark for the inevitable creeps that try justifing predatory grown ass adult men with those under 18.

What a photograph. “Nearly two dozen arrested as faith leaders protested outside a federal immigration facility near Chicago…” Arrested large amounts of peaceful clergy face first on pavement is a pretty good sign you’re not the good guys in the story. www.reuters.com/legal/govern...

This is me at 15. I’m a child. I’m a CHILD.

“Parents who, after consulting with a doctor and a psychologist, allow their 15-year-old child to transition commit child abuse. The child is too young to consent!” --Megyn R. Kelly “Grown men who have sex with your 15-year-old? Big whoop! It’s not like she’s 8. LOL!” --Also Megyn R. Kelly

If a temporary resident of the White House can totally demolish the East Wing to build a gaudy ballroom, without any authority, approval, or regulation, he can tear down the rest of the White House to build a Walmart. That this destruction is allowed underscores how off the rails our country is now.

Not only have we not forgotten, we won't ever forgive you. Nothing you can say, no lie you can tell will change the FACTS.

Merkley: "What we've seen is that democracies no longer die bc men w/guns go in and take it over. Instead, it's electeds who erode the separation of power. If you have a rubber-stamp Congress & courts that deliver more power to the executive, suddenly you have an authoritarian state. It's here now."

...an embarrassment, day in and day out...

The average age of U.S. homebuyers is now 56, up from 49 last year. In 1981, the year trickledown economics began, it was 31.

Speaker Johnson must stop stalling. Swear in Grijalava to get the final signature to release the Epstein files.

Thou shalt not support a man who bulldozes the White House to build himself a golden ballroom whilst the government is shut down because he doesn’t want the financial records tying him to Jeffrey Epstein to come out.

Remember all the fuss from Republicans about “saving the statues” & “preserving southern heritage?” Apparently the only structures Republicans will protect are the ones dedicated to racists.

The case is one of at least two major gun disputes the Supreme Court is set to decide this term.

Way to go, everyone! Huge turnouts from small towns to big cities all across the country!

The antifa terrorist marxists are out

If you’re a fed and wear a mask, you’re a coward

There’s a common feeling across the U.S. right now, a sense of helplessness. Many people want to do more but feel like they can’t. Remember: every action you take pushes the resistance forward.

A simple truth.

Reminder that any political party trying to make it harder to vote is sending a clear message: they can't win on their ideas alone.

There is no place for partisan political videos from the govt being blasted in airports attacking the opposition party. That is what authoritarian regimes do. This should not be a partisan issue - it is fundamentally un-American.
