What We're reading (and listening to) this Week
The New Dark Age. The genocide in Gaza is not an anomaly. It illustrates something fundamental about human nature and is a terrifying harbinger of where the world is headed.
I'm a nurse. If Congress cuts Medicaid and Social Security, my patients will die. The current administration is not trying to find 'waste' in the government. They are trying to undermine our public services so they can say, 'Look, they don't work. We need to privatize them.' Even if you’ve called already, call your representative now using (202-978-5357) and urge them to vote against ANY cuts to Medicaid!
Democrats Have One Shot, One Opportunity — Are They About to Let It Slip? The debate for the future of the Democratic Party rages on. Hot takes abound, but specific solutions remain elusive. My thoughts on the matter.

New York City deserves a mayor who not only is competent, but who has integrity. That’s why the WFP has endorsed a slate of proven progressive leaders, and why we’re asking New Yorkers like you not to rank Andrew Cuomo in this June’s primary election. If you’re with us, split a donation between our NYC Mayoral Slate candidates who haven't yet hit their fundraising goals and the NYWFP today to help get our message out.
Trump and MAGA Republicans want to ransack the government and steal health care from millions of families. The Senate Democrats willing to help them have lost the plot completely. We need to build an alternative force in American politics — one that puts working families first and will OPPOSE Trump and Musk. If you’re with us, please help the Working Families Party take up the fight by making a donation today.
