Ten years after Sandy Hook some of the grade schoolers who survived are seventeen & graduating high school; siblings, friends, neighbors, those who saw & the many who heard. As we mourn the lost we must remember those who survived and carry the burden of witness.

Let’s take a moment to thank Stacey Abrams, Fair Fight; Black Voters Matter; The New Georgia Project & All Voting is Local-Georgia. These Black led grassroots orgs shifted the landscape by knocking on 4 million doors in 10 days. Thank you Georgia! #FreshWords
Why didn't any of the latest inflation reporting mention that corporate profits just hit a record high?
Corporate profits reached $2.08 TRILLION in the 3rd quarter.
Corporate greed is playing a role in driving up prices — and the media will hardly talk about it.
In 2010 SCOTUS ruled that corporations & other groups could spend unlimited and undisclosed $$ on elections.
They made sure America would continue to serve the interests of the wealthiest 1%.
A huge blow to democracy.
End Citizens United.

"Pay has not fuelled inflation, it can't have, pay has been squeezed for 12 years. It's profit that has pushed this up. So let's start talking about profit."

If you texted or met with Mark Meadows about overturning the election, you need to be removed from Congress. Not someday by the voters or the DOJ. Now. This is not a minor deal. You perjured your oath of office and represent a grave threat to American democracy/national security.
Newly revealed texts show 34 GQP members of Congress including terrorist MTG and Ralph Norman texting racist birther seditionist Mark Meadows about the illegal fake electors scheme, Jan 6 and declaring Marshall Law.
They all need to be expelled from our Congress and arrested.
BREAKING: 2,319 texts from Mark Meadows now public, showing 34 Republican members of Congress texting with him about January 6, the fake electors, and declaring martial law (or "Marshall Law," sic), per Talking Points Memo.
Every single one of them must be held accountable.
The American people have a right to know the name of every elected official who plotted to overturn the results of the 2020 election on Jan 6 or impose martial law.
The rot at the core of the far right runs deeper than Donald Trump.
BREAKING: Marjorie Taylor Greene panics & claims that it was just "sarcasm" when she bragged that if she organized the deadly Jan. 6th insurrection they would have "won" and the rioters "would've been armed" — there are calls for a grand jury now. RT IF YOU SUPPORT PROSECUTION!
In the stories survivors tell of their loved ones, we remember the precious lives stolen from us by gun violence.
We carry them in our hearts and recommit to #EndGunViolence, For The Children. -NP
Since 1934, a president’s political party has lost 26 House seats on average. No matter what happens in this election, it is clear that President Biden will barely lose any House seats — & that is because of the pivotal role Gen Z played in this election. We showed up.
BIG shout out to @marceelias and @DemocracyDocket for their EIGHT huge wins overcoming GOP voter suppression today! I know y’all will have your hands full in the coming months swatting down LOLsuits from the fascists, and we appreciate your hard work defending democracy!
