Security detail provided by the US Marshals Service for budget chief and Project 2025 architect Russell Vought is being paid for by the $15M left in funding for the now gutted USAID.

Cuts in USAID will contribute to the deaths of hundreds of thousands of people, with 2/3 of them being children.

It is impossible to represent working people, to represent those who labor and those who struggle, and also represent those who exploit us.

The Democratic Party must choose.

May this one day happen to them.
On Thanksgiving, the immigrant children held at the Dilley detention center gathered in the gym for what they thought was a holiday feast.

The kids salivated over a spread of turkey, sandwiches, pastries and pies, a family told me.

But the food wasn’t for detainees — it was for the staff.

A court has ruled that the government's authoritarian ban on Palestine Action was unlawful.

Time to stop criminalising the people protesting a genocide - and start ending the UK's complicity.

Trump has stripped the EPA of its power to fight climate change.

If left unchecked, climate change will destroy Maine's lobster industry. It will decimate our fisheries across the board. The rapid warming of the gulf of Maine is a fundamental threat to our entire way of life.

Dr. Oz emailed an invite to a Valentine's Day party in 2016 to Jeffrey Epstein.

Oz appears several more times in the Epstein files, including an email sent from an account under his name to Epstein on Jan. 1, 2016, that has the subject line "Dr oz." The body of the message is completely redacted.

For 50 years, the median wage of hourly workers stagnated or declined while the stock market and CEO pay skyrocketed.

Is it any wonder why so many feel abandoned by the system? People lose faith, and a demagogue fills the void.

This is why we must fix the system. AOC is right.
AOC: "Extreme level of wealth inequality leads to social instability and drives authoritarianism, right-wing populism, and really dangerous domestic internal politics. That is a direct outcome of the failure of democracies over decades to deliver."

Medicare for all, paid leave, universal childcare.

Busting up big corporations and tackling Wall Street’s greed.

Getting big money out of politics.

Supporting unions and fighting for higher wages.

If Dems want to win back working people, this is the agenda they must support.

Sanders: The American people do not want this country to be an authoritarian society or an oligarchy. We have our differences, that’s what democracy is about—we argue it out. We don’t throw people who disagree in jail. We don’t intimidate the media. We don’t send ICE agents to shoot people.

If we can’t stand for human rights here and abroad, we can’t credibly fight fascism anywhere.

Palestinian freedom is tied to our fight against authoritarianism at home. You cannot defend democracy while aligning with anti-democratic interests like AIPAC.
