Former FBI Assistant Director Frank Figliuzzi said if he were to have received all the intelligence that the Secret Service & law enforcement agencies received before January 6th about the multiple calls for violence— his FBI would have shut down the event before it even began.
If Republicans take power, they will stop at nothing to gut Social Security and Medicare. And they call themselves the party of the working class?
Memo to the Fed: Your rate hikes aren't slowing inflation because inflation is coming from big corporations using the cover of inflation to increase their prices more than their costs.
Russia has banned Doctors and Medics from leaving the country. They are not permitted to leave Russia for "security purposes." Vladimir Putin is targeting medical professionals, just as Stalin, Mao, and Hitler did. This is who Donald Trump referred to as a "savvy genius."
Our government held firm. But a disturbingly high number of people who swore to uphold the government violated their oaths — before January 6, on the day itself, and in the days since. They must ALL be rooted out and removed from office — forever.

Dan Rather
Trump and Trumpism would not have been possible without all those who knew better but enabled him, coddled him, excused him, promoted him, or just looked the other way.

Robert Reich
A subpoena of a former president shouldn't be taken lightly. Neither should staging an attempted coup to change the outcome of an election.

Raising interest rates to curb inflation is a huge mistake. But don't take my word for it. The IMF said that interest rate increases could spur a global recession. The UN said the same thing. To control inflation, we must take aim at corporate profits, not working people.
Just a reminder: Donald Trump is the first President in American history who lost an election and refused to concede, refused to participate in the peaceful transfer of power, lied about that election, and then incited & led a violent attempt to overthrow that American election.

Robert Reich
Memo to Fed: Your rate hikes are having no effect because corporations that have got used to fat profits continue to raise prices even where their own costs are starting to fall.

Elon Musk is a petulant, spoiled brat. He doesn’t care who he hurts as long as he gets what he wants. No wonder Republicans like him so much.
The U.S. Capitol was under siege, and the President sat and watched it on TV and there was no effort whatsoever to evacuate him from DC to a safe, remote location. That explains everything you need to know about who led the armed insurrection: It was all Trump.

If you really want to understand skyrocketing prices, take a look at monopoly power. The economy is at least 50% more concentrated now than it was in 2005. In a market with only a few massive corporations who can coordinate price hikes, everyone gets shafted.
