  Why is the establishment so nervous about @AbdulElSayed? If he wins the MI Senate primary, the entire country will see that we CAN defeat $60 million in billionaire-backed super PAC spending and work towards a government that represents all people, not just the few.

  DEFEATING TRUMPISM IS NOT ENOUGH: DEMOCRATS MUST DELIVER FOR WORKING FAMILIES Donald Trump is the most dangerous president in American history and Democrats must do everything possible to roll back his disastrous policies. But running against Trump is not enough. The American people are hurting and they want to see a pro-working class agenda that will provide meaningful improvements to their lives. Democrats must have the courage to take on Oligarchy, corporate greed and a corrupt campaign f...

  This is what authoritarianism looks like. 38 days before the midterms, narcissist-in-chief Trump is illegally using $430,000 in taxpayer dollars to run a 30-second ad on Fox praising himself. This is what you'd see in North Korea, not America. Fox: Take this bogus ad down.

  Donald Trump's super PAC plans to spend up to $500 million to buy the midterm elections. Megadonors from both parties — almost all billionaires — have spent another $1.8 billion. ENOUGH. Get big money out of politics. End Citizens United. Move to public funding of elections.

  Trump is throwing 15 million people off their healthcare and doubling insurance premiums for over 20 million. Now he wants to kick another 750,000 people off the ACA. Trump's horrific priorities: tax breaks for the rich, billions more for war, cruelty for working families.

  Trump has now banned CNN, MS NOW and POLITICO from entering the White House grounds.  That’s not all. He is threatening that more news organizations who criticize him, including the New York Times and Washington Post, will be next.  Why? Because when demagogues like Trump are in trouble they want to control the flow of information and silence media that might hold them accountable. We will not allow Trump to undermine the First Amendment, the Constitution and our democracy. We will not accep...

  We Need Medicare for All More Than Ever Over and over again, I hear from critics that moving to Medicare for All is just “too expensive.” That is demonstrably untrue. But let me tell you what IS too expensive. And that is our current healthcare system, which puts the profits of the big health insurance and drug companies ahead of the well-being of the American people. Today, not only is our current system cruel, broken and dysfunctional, it is wildly expensive. Despite spending twice as mu...

  Five months ago, AOC and I called for a moratorium on new AI data centers. We were called “radical,” “crazy” and “extremists.” Today, 75% of Americans agree and hundreds of candidates are responding. The message is clear: We need a moratorium.

  Congratulations to Will Lawrence, Donavan McKinney and Dr. Abdul El-Sayed on their historic victories last night. Abdul took on the entire billionaire class, faced more than $60 million in spending against him, and WON. Now let's beat Mike Rogers and take back the Senate.

  Today’s elections are about whether we have a government of the people, by the people & for the people—or a government of the billionaire class, by the billionaire class & for the billionaire class. MI: VOTE Abdul El-Sayed, Donovan McKinney & Will Lawrence. MO: VOTE Cori Bush.

  Congratulations to the California Democratic Party for endorsing a billionaire wealth tax in their state. At a time of massive income and wealth inequality, we need the courage to take on the billionaire class — not cave to it.

  The Michigan Senate primary is a fight as to whether billionaires and their super PACs will continue to control American politics, or whether we can have a government that represents working families. Tomorrow is Election Day in MI. Let’s elect Abdul El-Sayed.

  If voters in California approve the 5% billionaire wealth tax in November, Mark Zuckerberg would owe $10.5 billion in taxes & healthcare would be saved for 3 million low-income people. Poor Mr. Zuckerberg would only have $200 billion left to feed his family. How will he survive?

  Thank you to a packed house in Minneapolis who came out to support @peggyflanagan. Together, we are going to take on crypto, the AI industry, AIPAC and other billionaire super PACs and send Peggy to the United States Senate.

  A. Phillip Randolph is right: “The essence of trade unionism is social uplift. The labor movement has been the haven for the dispossessed, the despised, the neglected, the downtrodden, the poor.” Let's grow the trade union movement.

  A new AI model went rogue and hacked other computers. No, this is not science fiction. Uncontrolled AI poses a serious threat to all of us. We cannot continue the race to build and deploy this powerful technology until strong safeguards are in place. CONGRESS MUST ACT.

  Since 2020, Walmart spent $37.6 billion in stock buybacks—enough to give all their workers a $23,550 bonus. Instead, Walmart pays wages so low that many of their workers need Medicaid & SNAP paid for by taxpayers. The real welfare queen is the Walton family worth $485 billion.

  Democratic establishment politics in action. Outside groups, led by AIPAC, have spent $52.3 million in Michigan’s Senate primary to support Haley Stevens, compared to $853,000 in outside spending for Abdul El-Sayed — a 60-1 margin. And the establishment is still going to lose.

  No, Mr. Trump, Canada is not “poisoning our air.” Climate change is fueling more wildfires, heat waves, floods and other extreme weather. Stop blaming our allies and start standing up to your friends in Big Oil, who are driving the climate crisis.

  In the richest country on Earth, we should have a great standard of living for ALL our people, not massive income and wealth inequality. The American people are tired of status quo politics. They want change, real change.

  Trump says “we have an amazing economy.” Really? 60% of our people live paycheck to paycheck. 85 million are uninsured or underinsured. More than 750,000 are homeless. The price of groceries is through the roof. If this is “amazing,” God help us.

  If Elon Musk, the richest man alive, really believes "money won't matter" in 2036, he'd support a 5% tax on his wealth & the wealth of other billionaires to make sure all Americans have a decent standard of living. The fact that he doesn’t tells you everything you need to know.

  Americans are tired of establishment politics, establishment economics and a corrupt campaign finance system. They understand it is absurd for one man to own more wealth than the bottom half of society. They understand healthcare is a human right. Americans want real change.

  Trump-backed billionaire David Ellison recently purchased CBS. Now he wants to take over CNN and the rest of Warner Bros. A coalition of state attorneys general sued to stop it. Now the deal is on hold. Good. We must stop corporate media consolidation.

  Are we really living in a “democracy” when billionaire-funded super PACs can spend tens of millions trying to defeat great progressive Senate candidates like Abdul El-Sayed (MI) and Peggy Flanagan (MN)? We need to end Citizens United and move to public funding of elections NOW!

  The number of Amazon workers relying on food stamps and Medicaid nearly TRIPLED between 2020 and 2025. Jeff Bezos is worth $257 billion and has a $500 million yacht. He can afford to pay his workers a living wage.
