Poll after poll shows that the American people understand that our country is moving in the wrong direction. They’re right.

The anger over massive income and wealth inequality is NOT envy of billionaires’ yachts and jewelry. It’s that the working class is suffering. It's that seniors living in poverty die 9 years younger than the wealthy. Yes. We need an economy that works for ALL, not just the few.

The damage from a reactionary Supreme Court: Citizens United allows billionaires to buy elections. Ending Roe v. Wade takes away a woman's right to control her body. Louisiana v. Callais strips voting rights away from Black Americans. Our rights are under attack. FIGHT BACK.

It is time for the U.S. to end military aid to Israel. But we're not going to wait 10 years to do it. The time to stop arming Netanyahu and hold him accountable for his crimes against humanity is NOW.
60 Minutes@60Minutes

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu tells 60 Minutes he wants Israel to eventually stop relying on U.S. military aid: “It's time that we weaned ourselves from the remaining military support.” 60Minutes.com

In the richest country on earth, young people shouldn't have to wait until age 40 to buy a home - 12 years after first-time buyers in 1991. Young people shouldn't have to fear a lower standard of living than their parents. We need an economy that works for all, not just the 1%.

In the United States we need hundreds of new hospitals and health clinics. We need thousands of new child care centers. We need millions of new units of affordable housing. We do NOT need to spend another $500 billion on the military for endless wars.

The function of a rational healthcare system is NOT to provide huge profits to insurance companies. It is to guarantee healthcare to all as a human right. We must no longer be the only major country without universal healthcare. We must pass Medicare for All.

Jeff Bezos is seeking $100 billion to put robots into factories. Millions of manufacturing jobs — GONE. Driverless vehicle companies are expanding rapidly. Millions of transportation jobs — truckers, cab drivers, Uber drivers — GONE. We are not ready for what’s coming.

The Trump administration is now: - Investigating an Atlantic reporter who wrote a story about FBI Director Kash Patel - Suing the New York Times over its employment practices - Threatening ABC's broadcast licenses We say NO to Trump’s authoritarianism. FIGHT BACK.

Since Trump launched the war on Iran, gas prices have jumped from $2.98 to $4.55 a gallon. Working families can’t afford that. We need to invest in the needs of the American people, not spend billions on an unconstitutional war. This war must end NOW.

Adam Hamawy was a 9/11 first responder, a combat trauma surgeon in Iraq and a volunteer in hospitals under bombardment in Gaza. He understands firsthand that our current healthcare system is broken and that we must pass Medicare for All. I am proud to endorse him.

Google founder Sergey Brin's wealth has DOUBLED to $311 billion since Trump's election. Now he’s spending $57M to oppose a 5% billionaires' wealth tax in California. He’d rather millions lose healthcare than pay his fair share in taxes. This kind of arrogance is unacceptable.

The Trump-Netanyahu war is not just about Iran. Israel's Defense Minister says, “The fate of southern Lebanon will be the same as that of Gaza.” 2,702 people have been killed there, 1.6 million displaced and dozens of villages destroyed. NO MORE U.S. MILITARY AID TO NETANYAHU.

Trump’s chief economist is right: “Credit card spending is through the roof.” Americans are forced to put more of their spending on credit cards because of outrageously high prices. That’s a win for big banks charging 30% interest rates. It’s a disaster for working people.
Aaron Rupar@atrupar

Hassett on American consumers: "Credit card spending is through the roof. They're spending more on gasoline, but they're spending more on everything else too."

Oil prices today: $105.25 a barrel Gas prices today: $4.46 a gallon Oil prices in March 2011: $105.06 a barrel Gas prices in March 2011: $3.51 a gallon Big Oil is using the Iran War to rip off Americans at the gas pump. Let’s end the Iran War & pass a windfall profits tax-NOW.

If the world’s leading scientists say there’s even a 10% chance humanity could be destroyed because of uncontrolled AI, shouldn’t we do everything possible to prevent it? This isn’t about competition with China. It's about coming together to prevent what might be a catastrophe.
