If you have an issue with members of Congress making millions from their stock trades while in congress you should be losing your god damn mind when the president is literally making billions buying stock in the companies with business before his administration.

While CEOs are making billions, the employees of America's richest corporations are barely making ends meet — often forced to pick up second or even third jobs while having little to no benefits.

We found that the Supreme Court is deciding more consequential rulings than ever before in largely unsigned orders with little to no explanation of how they voted or the reasons why.

AIPAC has spent more money in this year's Michigan Senate Democratic primary than it has ever spent in a single race before.

And they're using shady campaign tactics to trick Michiganders into voting against their own interests.

[Bernie Sanders @BernieSanders]

In the richest country on Earth, we should have a great standard of living for ALL our people, not massive income and wealth inequality.

The American people are tired of status quo politics.

They want change, real change.

GAZA: THE SUFFERING CONTINUES

Today in Gaza, most of the TV cameras are gone and media interest has declined. But, more than nine months after the announcement of a supposed “ceasefire”, the suffering of the Palestinian people continues.

Today, 92% of housing units in Gaza are damaged or destroyed, 70% of the entire population lacks adequate housing and is forced to live in makeshift shelters, 86% of agricultural water wells have been damaged, the vast majority of households report significant challenges in accessing safe and clean sanitation facilities and 90% of all energy infrastructure has been destroyed.

And what about the children? Today in Gaza, 91% of school-aged children do not have sustained access to in-person education, 93% of school buildings will require full reconstruction or major rehabilitation to be functional again and 70% of infants and young children under two years of age are experiencing moderate to severe food insecurity.

All of this is taking place after the horrific destruction that Netanyahu’s extremist government brought to Gaza over the last three years: more than 73,000 Palestinians killed and 173,000 wounded — mostly women, children and the elderly. In addition, virtually the entire infrastructure of Gaza was destroyed.

Israel now controls an estimated 70% of Gaza, well beyond what they agreed to, and has built dozens of military outposts inside Gaza since the “ceasefire” began. In the nine months since the “ceasefire” was announced, Israel has killed at least 1,150 Palestinians, including a family of six last week.

Now, as if to remove any doubt about their intentions, senior leaders of the Netanyahu government are moving to make the occupation permanent. Recently, a number of government ministers led thousands of settlers to the Gaza border demanding new illegal Jewish settlements be built there. National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir stood up and said "Gaza is ours."

The shameful fact is that the United States is complicit in everything that is happening in Gaza. We have funneled tens of billions of dollars in military aid to an Israeli government that has consistently violated international law and whose leader is a war criminal.

The good news is that the American people are catching on. More and more Americans — Democrats, Republicans and independents — are demanding that we stop all military aid to Israel and use our considerable leverage to end the suffering of the Palestinian people.

Enough is enough! Congress must listen to the American people. NO MORE U.S. MILITARY AID TO ISRAEL.

12 billionaires are spending over $120 million against California's 5% billionaire wealth tax.

These guys are worth $420 billion, got $182 billion richer since Trump's election & own at least 25 mansions in CA worth $550 million.

We must end billionaire greed.

@beardywxm We've got Libby & Thomason on the left. No starter, as you say, on the right. Otherwise, returning 7th place players everywhere else. If we start slow again this year, we're in a lot more trouble than not bringing in a new right back soon enough.

ICE smashed the window of a disabled Iraq War veteran, on his way to work, pepper-sprayed him, dragged him out at gunpoint, and locked him up for three days without charges.

This is fascism.

https://t.co/du9bv2U4pY confirms that George Retes is a citizen, a disabled U.S. Army veteran who served his country in Iraq.

Federal agents smashed his truck window, sprayed him with chemical agents, detained him for three days, denied him contact with his family, and released him without charges. He missed his daughter’s third birthday while sitting in a cell.

No person on American soil should fear being treated this way, least of all a citizen and veteran at the hands of his own government. A nation that can do this to a U.S. citizen and veteran can do it to anyone.

The Democratic primary in Michigan is not complicated.

The billionaire class is pouring tens of millions of dollars into the establishment candidate.

They want to maintain the status quo. We want real change.

We’re supporting @AbdulElSayed.

Our movement to deliver for everyday people won’t be stopped by AIPAC-funded attack ads, corporate cash, or the MAGA agenda.

Let’s fight back.

“No business which depends for existence on paying less than living wages to its workers has any right to continue in this country.

By living wages I mean more than a bare subsistence level – I mean the wages of decent living.”

Corporate greed is UnitedHealth making a $5.48 billion profit last quarter (up 60% from last year), spending $33 billion in stock buybacks since 2022, paying its CEO over $60 million last year while it works to hike premiums by up to 25% next year.

Yes. We need Medicare for All.
