    This guy belonged to a religious group called the Righteous Invasion of Truth where he practiced weapons skills. If he were Muslim, that fact would be in every single headline.

    The Austin bombing suspect was a quiet, “nerdy” young man who came from a “tight-knit, godly family,” said Donna Sebastian Harp, who had known the family for nearly 18 years nyti.ms/2FYMfv7

    By going after USAID the very first week, the White House has done what they say to do in prison: find the biggest, baddest meanest guy on your cell block, and sock him square in the jaw on Day 1.

    Just to be SUPER CLEAR: The GOP's tax scam bill is NOT law yet. At the very least, the House will have to vote one more time (and possibly the Senate too). If you're furious, now is the time to backlash like you've never backlashed before.

    No, the United States is not "the highest taxed nation in the world." Maybe a gif will convince the president to stop repeating this lie.

    Today's a good day to remember that the Biden-Harris administration presided over the best economic recovery in the world.

    The scandal of Paul Ryan's $1.50 tweet isn't that he thinks $1.50 a week is a lot of money. It's that Ryan's tax law further rigged the economy in favor of the super rich and giant corporations and now he wants working people to thank him for it.

    Obviously, I'm somewhat biased, but there have been numerous instances over the past four years of the Biden Administration getting hard things done and fixing problems quickly and efficiently with almost no credit. This is the latest example.

    The ability of the Biden Administration to get the Port of Baltimore fully open *within 3 months* of the complete collapse of a critical piece of infrastructure is truly a feat of public administration. defense.gov/News/News-Stor….

    If you're just interested in misleading people, ignore this. For everyone else: The proposal applies ONLY to households with $100 MILLION of assets. It establishes a minimum on all income (not specifically on unrealized gains). It's basically "withholding" for billionaires.

    Here we go. The unthinkable is being proposed. Unrealized capital gains tax.

    Credit where credit is due: Every single Democratic senator voted against the Wells Fargos and Equifaxes of the world tonight.

    A 25% minimum tax on the annual income of people who have more than $100 million would be the end of the middle class?

    A 44.6% tax on capital gains and a 25% tax on unrealized capital gains would be the absolute end of the middle class. Kamala Harris MUST be defeated!

    Hi. Are you a journalist who reported on the smattering of one-time bonuses that were announced a few months ago? Please write a follow-up story on the new BLS numbers that show overall wages for non-supervisory workers actually fell slightly this past year. Thanks.

    Remember when the GOP complained about the ACA being "rushed through?" Well, here is what a truly rushed legislative process looks like.

    Will @SenatorCollins really cast the deciding vote to confirm a a supreme court justice who will overturn Roe V. Wade? She might. Mainers, light up her phones and don't stop.

    There is perhaps no better example of the moral rot at the core of the Republican Party than imposing so-called "work requirements" on sick Medicaid recipients just weeks after passing a massive tax cut for rich heirs who literally did no work at all to inherit their wealth.
