Senator Elizabeth Warren [D-MA]

Thank you Senator Warren! U.S. Senator Elizabeth Warren  — US Senator for Massachusetts   Washington  ·  It’s been over 100 days since Donald Trump ended protection for Dreamers – 800,000 young people who are part of our American family. It’s been over 100 days since funding for community health centers lapsed. It’s been over 100 days since hurricanes ravaged Texas, Florida, and Puerto Rico – and Congress still hasn’t provided enough funding for disaster relief. For over 100 days, Republicans have refused to fix any of these issues, and today’s stopgap spending bill just kicks the can further down the road. We don't need new promises. We need new laws and real solutions.

Md. woman sues NRA after boyfriend removed her from his will before committing suicide by Richard Reeve/ABC7 Thursday, December 21st 2017 HAGERSTOWN, Md. (ABC7) —  A Hagerstown woman is suing the National Rifle Association, saying her longtime live-in boyfriend was mentally ill when he removed her from his will, was arrested for threatening to kill her son, and replaced her in the will with an NRA foundation before he committed suicide with a shotgun. Stormy Morse says Lewis Tabler Jr. was swindled by foundation attorneys into giving up his $500,000 in life savings. Foundation attorneys dispute that, saying he told them he didn’t want her “to receive a dime” of his retirement plan.

VOTE THE TURTLE OUT OF OFFICE! The war on drugs is an insult to the intelligence of the American people. There are mountains of evidence proving that the biggest importers of harmful, addictive, mind diminishing street drugs is the government. The drug laws that exist do not apply t o the government agencies that bring these substances to our country. They are only designed to keep everyone else from this extremely lucrative business and give the establishment another reason to oppress people.

A tale of two democracies, India and USA

Dear Friend, This was one of the most eventful and traumatic days in recent history in two of the most powerful democracies in the world. The president of the 'democratic' USA called Haiti, El Salvador, and African nations as “shitholes countries”. This is the lowest a democracy can get.  In India, the most populous 'democracy' in the world, four Supreme Court judges publicly spoke against the Chief Justice of India and his way of functioning. It is unprecedented in India. Perhaps, things like this never happened any other democratic country. Unlike the Trump 'shithole' it gives an iota of hope. It gives us hope that at least there are some responsible persons in India who are ready to stand up for real democracy. They publicly said "democracy in India is at stake". It really is. It is the responsibility of all democratic minded persons to stand up for justice.  People yearn for alternatives to industrial agriculture, but they are worri...
