This is how our government has been corrupted: 1) Donors give huge sums to elect politicians to office. 2) Elected officials rewrite the rules in the donors' favor. 3) Donors make a huge profit. 4) Repeat. For the sake of democracy, we must get Big Money out of politics.

Just a random reminder that we desperately need to overturn Citizens United and get big money out of politics.

Nurses went on strike. Then graduate students. Then school teachers. Now it’s hotel employees, writers, and actors. UPS drivers and auto workers may be next. Many strikes, similar story: Workers are sick and tired of billionaires and corporations hoarding wealth and power.

Let’s be clear: If we allow a former president to completely avoid accountability for inciting an insurrection against the U.S. government, we will be inviting it to happen all over again. Prosecute Donald Trump.

From banning abortion to criminalizing gender-affirming care for trans youth, the Republican agenda centers on taking AWAY freedom. Know the truth.

News flash: If you outlaw abortions, stop people from voting, ban discussions of sexual orientation and gender identity in classrooms, and criminalize providing gender affirming care for trans youth, you don’t get to call yourself the party of "limited government."

RT @Public_Citizen In 2021: Endeavor’s CEO raked in $308.2 million. Discovery’s CEO raked in $248.6 million. Disney’s CEO raked in $32.5 million. Comcast’s CEO raked in $33 million. Meanwhile, pay for writers has fallen by 23% over the last decade. Corporate greed is out of control.
