As US troops deploy to the Middle East.

As gas prices spike.

As 92,000 jobs vanish in a single month.

As scores of children die in elementary schools.

As acid rain falls over Tehran.

As Switzerland breaks 200 years of neutrality to call it a war crime.

As Iran announces a new Supreme Leader.

As the Epstein files stay buried.

Donald Trump is playing golf.

At his own resort.

With his billionaire friends.

This is the man who said he’d lower your cost of living on day one.

Here's our statement on the results of the 2024 presidential election:

[CALL TO ACTIVISM @CalltoActivism]

🚨🚨🚨Holy shit: A father of a child who was killed in the Uvalde school shooting SLAMMED Texas legislators for their “useless thoughts and prayers.”

Brett Cross boldly testified in front of a Texas House committee in support of legislation that would raise the minimum age to buy semi-automatic weapons from 18 to 21.

Brett Cross: “I'm so sick of hearing those three words from our elected officials…

While your prayers may have comforted you, they did nothing to absolve our pain...

Your thoughts and prayers didn't stop an 18 year old from purchasing two high powered semi automatic rifles and all of those rounds of ammunition.

Your thoughts and prayers didn't stop us from having to bury our children and two teachers.

Your thoughts and prayers haven't done anything in the 329 days since Uziel was shot through his stomach exiting his spine.

Your thoughts and prayers are useless unless you have thought and prayed for legislation that you can help enact that could change this.”

Thank you so much to Brett Cross and these BRAVE parents for speaking out!

@VancityReynolds This is insane.

[Archive: Senator Jon Tester @SenatorTester]

In an eleventh-hour act of cowardice, Republicans chose today to rob generations of toxic-exposed veterans across this country of the health care and benefits they've earned and so desperately need.

Make no mistake—the American people are sick and tired of these games.

As the Jewish high holidays begin Monday night, worshippers atone – and also think about repairing the world -- “tikkun olam” in Hebrew. That concept launched Joel Charny on a 40-year career in the humanitarian sector. Read his retirement reflections. https://t.co/HZmbyHneh9
