The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly Verdict

GOP candidate and convicted felon Donald Trump was found guilty 34 times by a jury of his peers. The trial was about election fraud and denying American voters relevant information just before the 2016 election—not about hush money and adultery. MAGA Republicans responded to the verdict by denigrating the justice system in a reckless and dangerous anti-constitutional display that we must refute collectively, loudly, and repeatedly.

CORRUPT SUPREME COURT JUSTICES MUST RECUSE FROM JAN. 6 CASES

Corrupt Justices Alito’s and Thomas’ direct ties to the January 6 insurrection create clear actual or perceived conflicts of interest that make them unfit to rule fairly over pending January 6 cases and Trump’s absurd claim of absolute immunity. Their failure to recuse, or be forced to recuse by Chief Justice Roberts, suggests SCOTUS cannot fairly decide these cases and demands immediate action from Congress.

PASS THE EQUALITY ACT NOW

Responding to pro-Palestinian activism on college campuses, Republicans, long purveyors of antisemitism, pushed through the House legislation conflating political opposition to Israeli policies with antisemitism. The Senate must kill this legislation, which violates the First Amendment’s protection of free speech and actually supports stereotypes against Jews.

IF WE CAN’T EAT THEM, AT LEAST WE CAN TAX THEM!

“America’s tax code is riddled with loopholes that allow the ultra-wealthy to get away without paying their fair share.” Senator Ron Wyden’s Billionaires Income Tax Act would end “buy, borrow, die” loopholes by applying tax codes to fewer than 1000 of America’s wealthiest people thereby generating billions for Social Security and Medicare.

JUSTICE DELAYED IS DEMOCRACY DESTROYED: SCOTUS MUST ISSUE A SPEEDY PRESIDENTIAL IMMUNITY DECISION

American voters deserve to know whether Trump is guilty of fomenting the January 6 insurrection before going to the polls to choose our next President. On April 25, through coordinated posts on social media, we're demanding that SCOTUS issue its immunity opinion by May 20th, which would enable the trial over Trump’s attempted 2020 insurrection to reach a verdict before election day.

ARE WE BETTER OFF ECONOMICALLY TODAY THAN WHEN BIDEN TOOK OFFICE? ABSOLUTELY YES

When Biden took office, the pandemic was raging, and our economy was on life-support. In just 3 years, he rescued the economy, revived our infrastructure and manufacturing sector, created millions of good-paying jobs, slashed childhood poverty, and lowered the costs of families’ everyday expenses. Giving him a second term and a Democratic Congress will improve our lives even more. Americans deserve no less.

Biden’s State of the Union Address: A Tale of Two World Views

Every morning President Biden awakens and asks: “What I can do to improve the lives of the American people?” Trump, by contrast, asks, “How can I increase my wealth and power and punish my enemies?” In his State of the Union address to the American people last Thursday, the President stressed their very different world views, values, policies, and future plans.

“The disregard for women’s ability to make [reproductive] decisions for themselves and their families is outrageous and unacceptable. . . .The vice president and I are fighting for your rights. . .and we won’t stop until we restore the protections of Roe v. Wade in federal law for all women in every state.”

Biden vs. Trump on Gun Violence: Reform or Backtracking from the Status Quo? 

Biden’s and Trump’s responses to the Kansas City shooting were starkly different. Biden immediately decried “epidemic” gun violence: “Today’s events should…shock us…into acting. What are we waiting for?” Trump, by contrast, attended a gun rally and bragged that, while president, “nobody took control of our Second Amendment [and] nothing happened.”
