When Massachusetts passed a "millionaires tax" in 2023, conservatives claimed the rich would flee.

But two years later, they haven't β€” and MA has collected $5.7B for infrastructure and public education.

A reminder that positive change can still happen at the state level.

Sgt. Brian McGinnis is out of jail after he was arrested for expressing his opposition to the US war on Iran in Congress. Capitol Police officers and Senator Sheehy broke his arm as they removed and arrested him.

For those who have forgotten the past 40 years:

Tax cuts for the rich
...don’t trickle down

Boosting military spending
...doesn’t bring peace

Slashing regulations
...doesn’t create jobs

Folks, we’ve seen this all before.

We could end homelessness and hunger tomorrow if we wanted to.

We could agree that everyone should be fed and housed.

We could admit that being disabled, poor, homeless or unemployed is not a moral failing.

That society would be better off if everyone’s basic needs were met.

Trump's war on Iran hasn't altered Canada's cost of making gas β€” at all. So why are we being hosed at the pumps? Policy choices, not market forces of a war halfway around the world, explain the spike in prices, writes Jim Stanford, leading to unnecessary economy-wide inflation and higher interest rates.

The gas in those pumps was refined weeks ago, from oil extracted months ago, none of which came through the Straits of Hormuz. So why does it cost 15c more per litre than it did LAST Friday? I ask why, in

Canada and Australia trust each other. We share the same values, and we can become even closer partners in defence.

We’re seizing this opportunity to do more training together, share more intelligence, and partnering to build out our defence industries.

Two white nationalists I exposed in a recent article showed up to try to intimidate me in person last night.

This is a press freedom issue.

Here’s what happened:

Just a random reminder that over 50 members of Congress collectively own millions of dollars in defense contractor stocks.

They stand to personally profit from wars that enrich these contractors.

Make no mistake, this is legalized corruption.

Watch how they vote this week.

OF COURSE Iran is fighting back!

OF COURSE the conflict is spreading!

What did they think would happen?

The US is being run by half-wits…

That one person can drag us into a war without consulting or even notifying Congress, or our allies, or fully explaining to the American people why this is necessary, is absolutely bonkers.

Reminder that Congress has the power to stop this.

American athletes who agree to be props for MAGA propaganda have no right to complain about getting booed during the national anthem.
