Tax billionaire wealth.

Make Medicare whole (no one can keep all the parts straight!)

From @theathleticfc.bsky.social: England survived a red card, a late Mexican onslaught and the fury of the Azteca to dump the co-hosts out of the tournament in a World Cup classic. Jude Bellingham scored two goals in as many first-half minutes. Norway is next. nyti.ms/4p7rqUL

Kiros, a political newcomer, topped 15-term-incumbent Diana DeGette in the Democratic primary in Colorado's 1st Congressional District, a reliably blue House seat. n.pr/4eCVqV3

Ken Paxton is the most corrupt politician in America.
He embodies the broken system we’re running against.
