CEO pay is up 1,085% since 1978, while typical worker pay is up just 24%. Why do we always hear "we can't afford to pay our workers more" but never "we can't afford to pay our CEO more"?

Holt shit! Listen to the words of this justice on Wisconsin's Supreme Court as she questions a Republican MAGA fascist seeking to ban abortion in the state. This video encapsulates the cruel and horrific consequences of a fascist Trump presidency to perfection. 😡😡😡👇

Folks, we're living in a Second Gilded Age.

It can be easy to feel discouraged, but the First Gilded Age teaches us lessons on how we can fight back. Watch.

BREAKING: The Biden administration makes the stunning announcement that homelessness among veterans has plummeted to a record low since counting began in 2009.

And it gets even better...

This past January, Biden officials counted 32,882 homeless veterans, which constitutes a 55.6% decrease since 2010. Additionally, the number of unsheltered veterans dropped from 15,507 in 2023 to 13,851 in 2024.

The numbers were released by the U.S. Interagency Council on Homelessness, HUD, and the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA). The drop is a direct result of aggressive efforts to address the problem.

The VA revealed last month that it's housing roughly 48,000 veterans and is focused on a "Housing First" approach that handles shelter and then offers veterans the services they require to remain sheltered.

VA Secretary Denis McDonough said that the country is "making real progress in the fight to end veteran homelessness" but added that "we still have a long way to go" and "we will not stop until every veteran has a safe, stable place to call home."

Our veterans deserve all of the love and support in the world. Together, we can solve this problem!

BREAKING: https://t.co/JQWy2gTfhs just dropped a new track titled "Yes She Can"—and yes, “She” is Kamala Harris.

This is the anthem America needs to hear right now.

How do fascists derail democracy? If you study history (or read Project 2025), it’s almost like there’s a recipe book: goose the economy, abolish unions, privatize what’s public, win the support of tycoons. But at what cost? Mesmerize your base so they don’t care. Blind them with your fear-mongering, lies, and promises. Fascism needs a bold leader…the only one who can fix things…a dictator who has the vision and expects others to follow (including women…whether they like it or not).

I believe that history is indeed speaking to us — and those who refuse to learn from it are doomed to repeat it. To learn how fascism hijacked Germany a century ago, just watch this five-minute clip. If you care about our democracy and love our country, it’s hard to stop watching.

This is an excerpt from my hourlong public television special “The Story of Fascism in Europe,” which is streaming free (and ad-free) at https://t.co/YA10kVH0V8. When I produced it back in 2018, I hoped this day would never come in our country. But November 5th is upon us.

Please share this with anyone in your life who might need a reminder that the stakes are high…and this is very real.

President Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris have landed the U.S. economy like Sully landed that jet on the Hudson river. They were fucking masterful. To think some ignoramuses now want to hand over the keys to the loathsome piece of shit... Are you motherfuckers insane? 😳👇

They got into the parade and walked the entire route simulating a lynching of a black woman happens to be the Vice President. No one stopped it. No one stepped in the whole time. A small town in Pennsylvania. Spare me your fucking fake outrage about being called garbage.

Let’s set the record straight: Trump is not a “successful businessman.” He is, objectively, a business failure.

He says he'll run the country like he ran his businesses. But here's the thing — he ran his businesses into the ground.

Abortion bans kill another woman. On the day of her baby shower, Nevaeh Crain went to the ER bleeding & feverish. She was diagnosed with sepsis, a deadly infection - but her fetus still had a heart beat. She was sent home. After her 3rd ER visit, she died.

A good father knows how important it is to protect his daughter. This November, fathers need to protect their daughters from Donald Trump.
