  1. Jessica: I also heard no complaints when Mike Johnson decided to abdicate his job to say actually congress isn't in session anymore because I don't want to have to vote on turning over the Epstein files…. so be equal opportunity in your complaints about fleeing your job

    Day 198

    (well maybe it started in 2016 or maybe even back in the mid-late 70’s)

    Day 198 of the war on America.

    There has been a lot of good resistance, but we need a lot more.

    Our democracy is being destroyed by terrible,terrible people.

    A lot of people still don’t see it or are okay with it.

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

    Getting big money out of politics. 

    Strengthening unions and fighting for higher wages.

    Medicare for all, paid family leave, universal childcare...

    This is the progressive populist agenda we need in America.

    Rep. Flood: We do not have unlimited money in the United States.

  5. Phang: Good for Pritzker, good for Hochul, good for Newsom—good for these other Democratic governors who are saying, “You know what? F off.” We’re not going to let people in these other states—people who are under attack and trying to do the right thing for their constituents—go without support
