This will certainly not get the attention it deserves. Please help spread its reach by clicking, reading, and sharing. Blockbuster and very important investigative reporting by @EricLiptonNYT and @BenWeiserNYT. nytimes.com/2020/10/29/us/po…

Imagine looking at the federal budget and thinking to yourself: Let's gut Medicare, slash Social Security, and defund the Special Olympics so we can buy more tanks we don't need and make the rich even richer.
Yet these are the people now in charge of our government.

The President defended Neo-Nazis who murdered a woman in Charlottesville.
The Dept of Justice sued him for not renting to Black tenants.
He launched his campaign by calling Mexicans “rapists.”
He banned Muslims.
The President is racist. And that should make you uncomfortable.
Ocasio-Cortez called Trump a racist. The White House response may have proven her point. wapo.st/2Ry0IYc

We do not need to waste billions on an unneeded wall so that Trump can appease right-wing extremists.
We need to create millions of good-paying jobs by rebuilding our crumbling infrastructure — roads, bridges, water systems, rail and affordable housing.

We must forcefully reject hatred and violence by reaffirming the democratic principles that have guided America through dark times before. It starts with exercising the right to vote, the most powerful nonviolent expression of our resolve.

A #FreePress is the red beating heart of American democracy. Today this clarion call rings forth from all corners of our nation -in defiance of those who would stifle it- thanks to an effort led by the @BostonGlobe. I lend my voice courtesy of @TheAtlantic theatlantic.com/politics/arc…

People inflict pain on others in their selfish pursuit of happiness and satisfaction. Yet true happiness comes from a sense of brotherhood and sisterhood. We need to cultivate a sense of universal responsibility for one another and the planet we share.

50 years ago today, I learned the painful news that my friend, my mentor, Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. had been assassinated in Memphis, TN. He was my brother, my leader--that day it felt like something died in all of us.

News anchors looking into camera and reading a script handed down by a corporate overlord, words meant to obscure the truth not elucidate it, isn't journalism. It's propaganda. It's Orwellian. A slippery slope to how despots wrest power, silence dissent, and oppress the masses.

Tomorrow night: a discussion on one of the biggest issues facing our country—the likes of which you'd never see in the mainstream media. I hope you will tune in. facebook.com/events/19717182…

The real way to make our workforce more competitive and boost wages is to invest more in the education and skills of American workers, not massive tax cuts for the rich and corporations.

Karma means action and action motivated by compassion is good. To complain that what happens to you is just the result of your karma is lazy. Instead, confidently recalling the advice that, "You are your own master," you can change what happens by taking action.

Please RT + join me in taking a stand in support of #NetNeutrality teapawt.org/womensmarch/status/941…

The @FCC just voted to kill #NetNeutrality. BUT the fight isn't over.
Congress can #StopTheFCC and overrule their vote using the Congressional Review Act. We need each and every one of us to keep the pressure on Congress. Here's how: BattleForTheNet.com

Never before in history has Congress worked so quickly, affecting so much of the economy and so many of our people, with so little deliberation. This is a travesty of democracy.

This is so bad. We have just gotten list of amendments to be included in bill NOT from our R colleagues, but from lobbyists downtown. None of us have seen this list, but lobbyists have it. Need I say more? Disgusting. And we probably will not even be given time to read them.
