Rising rent isn’t just economics—it’s a strategy.Trump is working to dismantle eviction relief and housing aid, forcing struggling families out while corporate landlords and investors profit. This isn’t just policy—it’s a calculated land grab.
Immigrants built this country. They built LA County.
They're part of our communities. They're helping rebuild our communities.
Deporting construction workers will produce heartbreak for their families, and delays and increased costs for everyone else.
The moment we say it's ok to violate the law to shut down one agency – we say it's ok to violate the law to shut down anything.
The January 6 effort to take over the U.S. Capitol was child's play.
Now the takeover of American democracy is coming from inside the house -- with a corrupt president, his billionaire henchman, & the newly corrupted DOJ, FBI, and other Trump-taken law enforcement agencies.
We told you.
Let’s be clear, Trump’s tariffs will be paid by Americans. Like a tax.
They will raise prices across the board. On food. On gas. On families. On small businesses.
An average American can expect to pay an annual tax of around $2600.
So much for his promise of lower prices.
The White House says:
- 25% tariffs on Mexico and Canada
What Americans feel:
- Fewer options at the store
- Higher prices for all of us, especially on food
He promised to cut costs. Now he's implementing a Trump Tax on our families.
The chaos continues.
Governor Pritzker of Illinois has signed an order prohibiting all J6 rioters from state employment.
This is how it's done. All governors should do this and private companies should do the same.
Hey Walmart, Starbucks, Costco, etc. -- step up!
RFK Jr. falsely testified today that antidepressants are as addictive as heroin.
He should know about heroin, as he was a heroin addict.
But essentially demonizing people who use antidepressants is dangerous.

Surprise! No, not really. He was clear about things from the start.

History is littered with democracies that lost their freedoms without seeming to notice while it was happening.
Let’s not become one of them.

RFK Jr is talking about morality..you know, the guy who kept a list of women he sexually assaulted while he was married & when his wife found it she committed suicide out of humiliation. You know the same guy who accepted sexually explicit photos from a young woman while married to Cheryl 🙄🤢🤢🤢
RFK Jr. is a danger at HHS.
This religious group sat and prayed while an eight-year-old girl died because she needed insulin.
They refused to give it to her, claiming God would heal her.
With the anti-vaccine, anti- science movement, this is what we can look forward to.

"Prep" refers to a drug protocol that stops the transmission of HIV.
Some businesses claim that providing health insurance that dispenses prep violates their "religious freedom."
Because apparently their religion includes trying to ensure gay people die.
The Washington, DC U.S. Attorney is a nut who spearheaded the "stop the steal" campaign. Yep, we have a Department of Justice leader who claims Trump won 2020 and is investigating the career federal prosecutors in his office for doing their jobs.

Cutting off SNAP is a good way to start Hunger Games for real.
Let Denmark cook.
Hi! Are you on Medicaid and were you essentially turned away from the ER by being told that it isn't clear that you care would be covered due to Medicaid portal issues? Email me at jmetraux@motherjones.com
Atrocity justification begins with false equivalencies.
CNN's Jim Acosta signing off:
"I will not give in to the lies. I will not give into the fear. Post it on your social media so people can hear from you too."
I will not give in to the lies. I will not give into the fear. Post it on your social media so people can hear from you too.
Pass it on.
Trump said he wasn’t “100% sure” that he cannot run for a third term as president.
The US Constitution says otherwise.
But Trump is a dictator. We told you so. Hell, he told you so. And yet people still voted for him.
And yet people ask me how I can cut Trump voters out of my life.
As the attack on vaccines continues, I've mostly stopped caring about whether people choose to get themselves vaccinated.
My big concern is that research and development of vaccines will stop and that those of us who want them, won't be able to get them.
