Sanders: I have been asked over and again. Bernie, great ideas but how are you going to pay for them? Great question, thanks for asking. And here is the answer… the top 1%, and large profitable corporations will pay their fair share in taxes

The bad news is that Gov. Gavin Newsom is being threatened with arrest by the federal government in the most fascist manner possible, and that should be condemned by every reasonable adult. The good news is that the arresting officers will make for great guests on his podcast.

Let this sink in. Even the Los Angeles Police Chief, Jim McDonnell, made it clear: the people protesting immigration raids were not the ones causing violence. During a Sunday evening press conference, McDonnell condemned the violence as “disgusting”

Truth-tellers, not rioters. Protect these two men at all costs. “You feel tough with your assault rifles and your sticks. You should be standing here with us. You’re on the wrong side of history.” “John Lewis said make good trouble… that means make trouble on behalf of democracy.”

BREAKING: The Supreme Court ruled courts must assess the full context of a police encounter when determining what constitutes excessive force — not just the moments right before the lethal force. Over 1,300 people were killed by police last year. This ruling will help hold the police accountable.

If you're not going to support January 6 police officers because the people who attacked them happen to be your supporters, then you don't really support law enforcement. You're just being partisan hacks.

60% of American households can’t afford a minimal quality of life. Meanwhile, the 19 richest households saw their wealth increase by $1 trillion in 2024 — the biggest one-year increase ever. Our problem isn't a lack of resources. Our problem is ever-expanding inequality.

This is a HUGE scandal. Elon Musk, JD Vance, and Trump are lying about Social Security fraud. Internal documents show DOGE found "no significant fraud"—but did slow retirement claim processing by 25%. Nothing efficient about making it harder for people to get their benefits.

nextgov.comDOGE went looking for phone fraud at SSA — and found almost noneSince SSA installed new anti-fraud checks on claims made over the phone, only two claims out of over 110,000 were found to likely be fraudulent, according to internal documents obtained by Nextgov/FCW...

Walmart Makes You Pay For Tariffs Walmart just announced prices will rise, Thanks to Trump’s tariffs. Not a surprise. Tariff tantrums means the pain goes around. But not for the Waltons. Their taxes will go down.

Since abortion became almost entirely illegal in Texas in 2021, the state has seen a significant rise in the number of women who die in pregnancy or after giving birth. A new bill aims to change that.

I agree with Speaker Johnson. No one should wonder whether a lawmaker is advancing their own financial interest or the public interest. It makes no sense for lawmakers to own individual stocks. Just ban it. Members of Congress shouldn't even have the appearance of conflicts.

June does not speak for The Onion in this instance. As a policy, we are open to extravagant, golden-toiletted sky palaces from all known petrostates.
