    News flash: If you ban mask mandates, outlaw abortions, dictate what educators can teach in schools, and stop people from voting, you're not the party of "limited government."

    Serious question: How can you watch America’s billionaires get 62% richer during the pandemic and not support a wealth tax?

    The “stepped-up basis” tax loophole allows heirs of billionaires to avoid capital gains taxes on inherited assets. Closing this loophole is an absolute no-brainer. But Dems on the House Ways and Means Committee wouldn’t even touch it. This should be a national scandal.

    Who else thinks we should start investing in the American people instead of blowing our cash on endless wars and tax breaks for the rich?

    We desperately need to get big money out of politics. And we can’t forget these names come 2022: Scott Peters (CA-52) Kurt Schrader (OR-5) Kathleen Rice (NY-4) All should be primaried by people who care more about advancing the public good than protecting private profits.

    Can anyone tell me why House Democrats are proud of their plan to raise the corporate tax rate from 21% to 26.5%? Let me remind you that it was 35% under Obama. This isn’t progressive. Or impressive. Dems need to do better.

    Alternative headline: World's richest man pledges to give away less than what he makes in one day...by the end of the year.

    PSA: Democrats’ tax plan doesn’t tax wealth, but only yearly income. Here's why that's a problem: Jeff Bezos’ salary is $81,840. But his wealth is $201,000,000,000. Failing to tax wealth is precisely what the billionaires want.

    ICYMI: Joe Manchin founded two coal companies in the 1980s, which are led today by his son. His family’s fortune relies on allowing the fossil fuel industry to keep wreaking havoc on our planet.

    Don’t tell me the filibuster is written in stone. In recent years, 161 exceptions have been enacted allowing measures to pass the Senate by a simple majority without being subject to the filibuster. Why shouldn’t voting rights be an exception, too?

    Vaccination rates: France: 72 percent Canada: 68.7 percent Italy: 66.3 percent UK: 65.9 percent Germany: 62.2 percent America: 53.9 percent Is this what they mean by American exceptionalism?

    Let's get one thing straight: There is nothing “moderate” about bucking a proposal that is supported by your own party, your own constituents, and the majority of Americans across the political spectrum. We desperately need to get big money out of politics.

    Two of the three Democrats who tanked the party's proposal to allow Medicare to negotiate lower drug prices — Scott Peters and Kurt Schrader — together have received more than $1.7 million in donations from Big Pharma. Always follow the money.

    If you paid just $1 in federal taxes in 2020, you paid more than FedEx, Michaels, Nike, Salesforce, and 51 other massive corporations. Seems fair, right?
