I would like to formally recognize Elizabeth Warren as a replacement nominee for Senate Majority Leader.
There is no Senator with a more progressive voting recordโnot even Bernie Sanders.
She is the only member of Congress to:
โข Denounce AIPAC
โข Refuse money from special interest groups
โข Publicly post her tax returns every year
She supports:
โข Universal healthcare
โข Universal childcare
โข Increasing the tax burden on billionaires
โข Free public college for all
โข Large-scale clean energy investments
โข Overturning Citizens United
โข Criminal justice reform, including ending private prisons
โข Strong consumer protection (she helped create the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau)

Liberal MPP Tyler Watt said that he is very proud of the students for calling out the government and the colleges and universities minister.
โHis response has been pathetic. Heโs not being honest about this,โ said Watt. โHe wonโt even acknowledge the fact that he let this go on for years before taking action.โ
Watt said the government is trying to shift the focus to the action they are taking against fraud now, rather than what went on since the police warning in 2023.

Avi Lewis defends a wealth tax: "This is an idea that addresses the fundamental inequality and the danger of inequality in our society because if we don't do something, people are going to believe in this country that the economy just doesn't work for them."

End the pointless war in Iran.
Provide universal healthcare and childcare.
Pass comprehensive immigration reform.
Implement sensible AI guardrails.
Codify abortion rights into law.

Jeffries and Schumer are now facing possible removal from their leadership positions. A total of five Democratic senators now support removing Chuck Schumer as Senate Democratic leader. The majority of Democratic voters who fueled the Blue Tsunami are demanding that both Chuck Schumer and Hakeem Jeffries step down immediately, making way for more progressive leaders who better represent the mandate behind the historic midterm Blue Tsunami and are willing to hold Trump accountable...๏ฟผ

I didnโt forget that Hakeem Jeffries flew overseas last month to meet with JARED effing KUSHNER to discuss
โAFFORDABILITYโ.
Why?
If we are going to hold people accountable, he shouldnโt be exempt.
Same with Schumer.
This is a new era for us.
Things HAVE to be different.

Have we collectively forgotten what Chuck Schumer did the last time he had any power to do anything?
-The shut down.
30M peoples healthcare on the line.
And he fucking folded.
But, he "really didn't like" the final outcome.
Come on. We can't do this again.

Lifelong Dem here.
I understand the need for calm responses, but Dems have had a lot of time to make a plan. @RepJeffries needs to directly list what they will do day one AND confirm the American people have spoken and Dems will do whatever they need to do.
WAY TOO MEASURED.

Hakeem Jeffries meeting privately with Jared Kushner should disqualify him from being Speaker of the House. Full stop.

It just means businesses can write off 100% of the cost of productive assets like machinery in the first year instead of writing it off fractionally over many years like they do currently. It encourages more growth, jobs, and cash flow by having more capital available earlier.
