It is long overdue for corporations to pay more in taxes, especially if they cannot pay their employees fair wages.

We must enact #CorporateFairShare legislation ASAP. Contact your legislators today:

In this article @moulton.house.gov stated: “Mark my words: It may take some time, but Americans will be prosecuted for this, either as a war crime or outright murder.”

If you really believe this, Congressman, draw up impeachment charges. They won’t pass, but you MUST still try. History is watching.

a lot of words, none of them denying that Hegseth gave an order to kill helpless people who were stranded at sea after he blew up their boats
As usual, the fake news is delivering more fabricated, inflammatory, and derogatory reporting to discredit our incredible warriors fighting to protect the homeland. As we’ve said from the beginning, and in every statement, these highly effective strikes are specifically intended to be “lethal, kinetic strikes.” The declared intent is to stop lethal drugs, destroy narco-boats, and kill the narco-terrorists who are poisoning the American people. Every trafficker we kill is affiliated with a Designated Terrorist Organization. The Biden administration preferred the kid gloves approach, allowing millions of people — including dangerous cartels and unvetted Afghans — to flood our communities with drugs and violence. The Trump administration has sealed the border and gone on offense against narco-terrorists. Biden coddled terrorists, we kill them. Our current operations in the Caribbean are lawful under both U.S. and international law, with all actions in compliance with the law of armed conflict—and approved by the best military and civilian lawyers, up and down the chain of command. Our warriors in SOUTHCOM put their lives on the line every day to protect the Homeland from narco-terrorists — and I will ALWAYS have their back.

Hegseth issued an illegal Caribbean strike order: “Kill them all.”

SEAL Team 6 hit the boat and saw survivors clinging to the wreckage.

Commanders then ordered a second strike to finish them off.

Killing survivors is blatantly illegal.

Hegseth order on first Caribbean boat strike, officials say: Kill them all
Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth issued a verbal order to kill all crew members in the Sept. 2 strike on a suspected drug boat. Navy SEALs fired a second missile.

Pete Hegseth is a murderer. We should call it as such, and do so over and over again.

No functioning government should have someone like this in a position where they can hurt anyone else.

Four of Trump's five children have an immigrant mother, and the one who doesn't is married to the son of two immigrants.

Trump makes the outrageous claim that “most” immigrants, which include over 25 million U.S. citizens, “are on welfare, from failed nations, or from prisons, mental institutions, gangs, or drug cartels.”

As insulting as the “deplorables” comment, and on Thanksgiving day no less.

I keep hearing about how Dems are the party of "identity politics" and yet it's Republicans who always reach to identity for everything.

God forbid we talk about guns. There have been 452 mass shootings this year; this shooting doesn't even make the list because fewer than 4 people were shot.

Experts say it’s highly unusual for the White House to tell agents to give up custody of potential evidence in an investigation, as it did with the Tates.

“I’ve never heard of anything like that in my 30 years working,” an ex-DHS official said.
The White House Intervened on Behalf of Accused Sex Trafficker Andrew Tate During a Federal Investigation
Federal authorities were chided for seizing electronic devices from Tate and his brother, and told to return them, records and interviews show. Experts said the intervention was highly inappropriate.
