Turn on images to see this CBS News polling graphic.

I’ve always loved Elizabeth Warren’s “I Have A Plan For That Motto” because it rings so true. Today, she unveils three new plans that cover three big issues. First, the Coronavirus: Warren’s plan has several provisions, starting with attempts to help people who need or will need medical attention. She wants...

ME, IA, TX & KY-Sen: Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand (D. NY) Helps These 4 Amazing Women Become Senators

Received this e-mail today from U.S. Senator Kirsten Gillibrand (D. NY) in support of Sara Gideon (D. ME), Theresa Greenfield (D. IA), MJ Hegar (D. TX) and Amy McGrath’s (D. KY) U.S. Senate campaigns: Democrats need to net just four Senate seats in 2020 to take back the majority. So...

Who would do it for as much as the withheld Ukraine aid? George Lopez does Ted Nugent no favors

Apparently, Trumpist-bots are trying to be angry about an online message that resembles a stock line in comedian George Lopez’s stage routine about performing a task for less compensation because he’s Latinx. The backdrop for this is the 30-round AR-15 magazine emblazoned with an imprisoned Hillary flaunted by Donald Trump Junior....

WaPo Has the Knives Out for Warren

Until recently, Warren and Buttigieg had avoided attacking each other, but lately that’s changed. Warren said Buttigieg needed to be more forthcoming about his consulting work with McKinsey. In response, Buttigieg said Warren should release more of her tax returns (she’s released 11 years’ worth) to show her work on...

Elizabeth Warren: A Great Public School Education for Every Student

What Bernie Sanders gets right with his critique of the corporate media

For generations, the politicians consistently and publicly finding fault with the news media have largely been Republican. But as frustrations rise on the other side of the aisle this campaign season, more Democrats are speaking out, led by Sen. Bernie Sanders. His structural critique of corporate media in America is an...

Americans so believe in a mythical market. There is this magical thing that watches over our economic activity. Let's be clear.

Leveling The Playing Field: Paying Workers With Credit Lines Backed By Put-Hedged Restricted Stock

A modest proposal. Hear me out. The Problem I’m not even sure this needs to be stated. Income inequality is massive. The difference keeps growing. But let’s look at why.
