The NRA buys off Congress. No action on guns. The oil industry buys off Congress. No action on climate. Insurance companies buy off Congress. No action on health care. The list goes on... Money in politics is the root of our dysfunction.

REP. Rep. Justin Jones as Republicans vote to expel him: “I WAS FIGHTING FOR YOUR CHILDREN AND GRANDCHILDREN TOO… …if this can happen in Tennessee it’s coming to your state next.”

Scott Walker YAF Did it ever occur to you that your people are the ones who have been indoctrinated with a false and radical worldview by right-wing media, while younger Americans are seeing the world for what it really is?

🚨Last night’s racist, anti-democratic expulsion of two Black lawmakers left 130,000 Tennesseans without representation in their House of Representatives. As Rep. Rep. Justin Jones said during his expulsion hearing, this is an assault on democracy. 🧵

Preventing anti-democratic power grabs like this one is why we fight to build governing power for state lawmakers who will protect our democracy in state legislatures. And while we’ve made progress, as Justin J. Pearson says here, it’s clear that there’s still much work to be done.

A functioning country is definitely when a Nazi billionaire can shower a SCOTUS justice with lavish gifts for decades without disclosure while the justice's wife tries to overturn a Presidential election—and not one person faces any form of accountability whatsoever.😐

It makes no sense to tie health care to employment – no one’s health should suffer because of job loss. Medicare for All would ensure that everyone can access the care they need when they need it.

Here is the root of modern day GOP hypocrisy and racism. Rather than allowing Government to also work for Black & brown people, Ronald Reagan convinced his conservative base that government can't work for the benefit of the people, ever.

Here’s an eye-opening argument made by an opponent of Montana’s anti-trans legislation - one that hasn’t gotten much attention.

The modern Republican party is devoted to three ideas: 1) That power is only legitimate if Republicans wield it 2) Power must be acquired by any means necessary 3) And the party is accountable to no one once it has it It's a recipe for fascism.

BREAKING: Harlan Crow and his family's average yearly political contributions went up 862% after Citizens United was decided in 2010. Who provided a deciding vote for that case? Justice Clarence Thomas, a "family friend" they showered with luxury travel and gifts for 20+ years.

A call to action. Joy Reid explains what the Republican Party is up to, and it’s chilling. Urging you to watch this, it’s the best seven minutes you’ll spend today.

I’m Muslim. I don’t feel attacked when people condemn the Taliban b/c Taliban do not represent Muslims & I proudly take the lead in condemning Taliban terrorism. If you’re MAGA white & feel personally attacked when Biden condemns white supremacy terror—you’re telling on yourself

Republicans are so concerned about the national debt that their estate tax repeal bill would give: $1.8 trillion to billionaires $88 billion to the Walton family $72 billion to Elon Musk’s family $46 billion to the Jeff Bezos family $0 to 99.9% of families Total hypocrisy!

This has been the GOP's plan all along: 1) Pass massive tax cuts for the rich. 2) Claim the cuts will pay for themselves, dismissing concerns about the deficit. 3) Use the massive hole they've blown in the budget to justify deep cuts to programs that millions rely on.

In 2017, i paid Cards Against Humanity to protect a pristine plot of border land from Trump’s racist wall. But then an even more racist billionaire stole this land & dumped his shit all over it. @ElonMusk owes me $100. #ElonOwesMe100Bucks ElonOwesYou100Dollars.com
