Do we want to be controlled by a tiny, ultra-privileged class whose only goal is to amass ever greater wealth and power for themselves at any cost to others or to be lead by those who we chose from among the rest of us who want fairness, prosperity and justice for all and a truly greater America?

The effective federal corporate income tax rate: 1950: 50% 1990: 25% 2020: 13% Stop asking "but how we will pay for it?" Restore the corporate tax rate. That is how we will pay for it.

Corporate spending on elections has already topped $500 million this year. That's one third of the $1.58 billion in total that corporations have spent since Citizens United in 2010. Hawaii and Montana both have plans to neutralize this disastrous SCOTUS ruling. Other states must get on board.

This is how our government has been corrupted: 1) Donors give huge sums to elect politicians to office 2) Elected officials rewrite rules in the donors' favor 3) Donors make huge profit 4) Repeat We must get big money out of politics. It is the root of our dysfunction.

Medicare for All would save $450B a year. Every dollar spent on food stamps generates $1.50-$1.80 in economic activity. Each dollar going to low-wage workers adds $1.20 to the economy overall. It’s not about what this country can or can’t afford. It’s about priorities.

The challenges we now face must be met by a bold progressive populist movement that strengthens democracy and shakes up the system. We can’t simply return to the path we were on before Trump. We cannot accept the status quo of Big Money dominating our politics and economy.

They can attack, terrorize, assault our immigrants, our civil servants, media, educators, healthcare, Environmental, workers, but when they go after our comedians, THAT'S TOO FAR!!!

The most vile DJT complains that the Rev. Budde’s sermon was not “exciting” enough. His deadly Capitol riots are exciting. His sexual assaults, freeing criminal thugs, assaults on democracy, his administration of clowns and crooks are his kind of excitement. We must pray and fight for Rev.

You are up to date.
