No DMs if I have not followed you.
The Oligarchs want to control it all: our economy, our media, our political system.
Today, workers around the world are joining together in solidarity to demand governments that work for ALL, not just the few.
I am proud to stand on the side of the working class.
Let’s be clear. Trump's arrest of Judge Dugan in Milwaukee has nothing to do with immigration.
This latest attack is about one thing: unchecked power.
It is time for my colleagues in the Republican Party to stand up to his growing authoritarianism.
I want to thank President Biden for everything he has done for our country! The love he has for this nation mirrors the love that I and the American people have for him.
In the face of increasing threats to America’s democratic institutions, I am calling for three bold reforms to restore trust and accountability to the Supreme Court and our democracy.
First, I am calling for a constitutional amendment called the No One Is Above the Law Amendment. It would make clear that there is no immunity for crimes a former president committed while in office. I share our Founders’ belief that the president’s power is limited, not absolute. We are a nation of laws—not of kings or dictators.
Second, we have had term limits for presidents for nearly 75 years. We should have the same for Supreme Court justices. The United States is the only major constitutional democracy that gives lifetime seats to its high court. Term limits would help ensure that the court’s membership changes with some regularity. That would make timing for court nominations more predictable and less arbitrary. It would reduce the chance that any single presidency radically alters the makeup of the court for generations to come. I support a system in which the president would appoint a justice every two years to spend 18 years in active service on the Supreme Court.
Third, I’m calling for a binding code of conduct for the Supreme Court. This is common sense. The court’s current voluntary ethics code is weak and self-enforced. Justices should be required to disclose gifts, refrain from public political activity and recuse themselves from cases in which they or their spouses have financial or other conflicts of interest. Every other federal judge is bound by an enforceable code of conduct, and there is no reason for the Supreme Court to be exempt.
All three of these reforms are supported by a majority of Americans—as well as conservative and liberal constitutional scholars. In America, no one is above the law. In America, the people rule.
It was the honor of a lifetime to perform poetry at an inauguration that swore both President Biden and Vice President Harris into office, as they are both outstanding leaders who have dedicated their lives to public service. The miracle that allowed for me, a young, Black girl to be there was the democratic tradition of ushering in a new guard of voices, one that Biden and Harris have exemplified by exchanging the torch without ego, malice, or pride. When we share power without insecurity and stand together as our best selves, there is nothing we can’t accomplish in this country. Let’s go #Harris2024!
Eid-eh Shoma Mobarak — happy Nowruz and happy New Year to all those celebrating.
In these challenging times, Nowruz's promise of renewal offers us hope as we stand together and pray for prosperity, health, and peace around the world.
Ruzzian convicts from the Sarmat battalion fled from the front because their commanders wanted to shoot them.
They say that absolute chaos is happening at the front. Wounded occupiers are killed by their commanders in order to steal payments for injuries (3 million rubles) from their cards. They are also shot for the slightest offense and refusal to go into suicidal meat assaults.
BREAKING: Donald Trump secures his place in history in the worst way possible as John Dean — the former White House counsel to Richard Nixon — announces live on CNN that Trump's latest indictment is "much bigger than Watergate."
And it gets so much worse for MAGA...
According to Dean, Trump's scandal is far worse than Nixon's infamous fall from grace and is "of a whole different dimension" because it "goes to the very foundation of democracy."
"Nixon abused some powers, he exceeded his authority when he shouldn’t, but he wasn’t taking on the basics of the country," explained Dean.
He added that District Attorney Fani Willis with her slew of charges against Trump and his 18 co-defendants "didn’t just charge him, she threw the book at him." He added that her robust 98-page indictment "a very impressive document."
John Dean is absolutely right. Donald Trump's attempt to steal our election is nothing less than the greatest political scandal in American history. He MUST be locked up for his crimes.
