Our health care system is collapsing. Housing is unaffordable. 60% of people are living paycheck to paycheck.

Instead of trying to "run" Venezuela, Trump might try to do a better job running the United States.

Every war is about oil. Get that through your thick heads, everyone. It’s not about drugs. We like drugs. You just can’t say, “I want your oil,” and take it. But you can act like drugs are a problem, which they are not — drug use is down, 'by a lot.' #theOFC

Elon Musk is a piece of shit racist who bought trump for putin

It took him all of 10 min to go full Nazi salute.

LONG LIVE THE REAL KING.

It’s dispiriting to see how the U.S. is diverging from much of the developed world when it comes to noncitizen voting rights and many other areas downstream from a functioning, healthy democracy. But history is never settled and always evolving. Georgia is one of the few competitive states that has not taken an explicit stance on the future of noncitizen voting. Atlanta is the cradle of the Civil Rights movement. The best time to fight for our representation and a future we can not just imagine, but take part in, is right now.

How would @alexip718.com fix Atlanta?

Immigrants pay taxes, work hard, send their kids to public schools, and build better futures for their communities.

It's time to let them vote in local elections as well.

It is a little too late for many farmers, who are going bankrupt because of tariffs that exist for no reason other than the actions of those in power #theOFC. These policies continue to divide our economy into “haves” and “have‑nots,” reinforcing a class‑based, capitalist society.

Trump hates Europe’s democracies because they have universal health care, a strong social welfare system and heavy unionization.

He prefers MBS’s Saudi Arabia, where one trillionaire family runs a brutal dictatorship.

What a betrayal of American values!

Yes. We must extend the ACA tax credits so that over 20 million Americans don't see a doubling in their health premiums, on average. But we must do more. We cannot remain the only major country not to guarantee health care for all as a human right.

We must pass Medicare for All.

Larry Ellison, the world’s 2nd-richest man, predicts an AI surveillance state where “we’re constantly recording & reporting everything.”

Are we headed toward a future where every call, text, email & search is tracked by billionaires?

That's not democracy. It's authoritarianism.

Americans do not have healthcare—we have health insurance, and we can’t afford for‑profit health insurance. What part of Not‑for‑Profit Universal Healthcare do you not understand? Every dollar that Americans put into universal healthcare goes back into making affordable healthcare for all. No profit
