I'm an FDR-era liberal, not a Schumer centrist. Dems need to start talking wealth inequality, Citizens United, money in politics, reining in private equity, & all that other money stuff. Book? Goliath: the 100-year War Between Monopoly Power & Democracy.

I keep hearing the same argument from MAGA:
"What about all the citizens murdered by illegals".
Then get a warrant and go arrest them!
Don't patrol the streets terrorizing everyone, arresting children at schools and US citizens because you don't know who to arrest. See the difference?

ALEX PRETTI’S PARENTS: “He was a VA nurse who cared about people deeply, and he was very upset with what was happening with ICE... kidnapping children, grabbing people off the street — he knew it was wrong. He loved this country."

This drawing was made by one of the 5 year old El Gamal twins. It shows children behind bars with the caption, “I’m 5 years old.”
An immigration judge denied them bond, citing “insufficient assets.” These children could remain in detention for years while their case is appealed.

I don't see how Tesla's Model 3 can survive if Benz can offer an alternative EV this cheap, with this kind of performance, on top of the 15% tariff that it's charged in the US.
Imagine what this model does to Tesla in Europe, where Benz pays no tariffs.

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.

When Big Oil companies claim to be partners in climate solutions, remember: they are lying.

Young Australians are bearing more and more economic burden because of our failure to index tax brackets. As Ken Henry has put it, this is an act of intergenerational bastardry. We need to index tax brackets, lessen the load on wage earners, and stop giving subsidies to fossil fuel industries.

He's talked about walking through the dressing room at the Miss Teen USA pageant & seeing all these "incredible looking women". That was a tell. He knew it was a teen pageant & he called them women.
The term "underage women" is also a tell. Pay attention to who uses it.
