James Talarico traces 50 years of trickle-down back to one 1971 document, the Powell memo, a corporate blueprint to buy power
βIn fact, you can, you can pinpoint this one document called the Powell memo, 1971.β
βBut if you read this memo, it's basically a blueprint for how corporate interests can start to dismantle the Great Society and the New Dealβ
βThey're going to spend massive amounts of money in our politics, buying politicians in both parties, elevate corporate voices in media, appoint sympathetic judges.β
βAnd that has really been the story of the last 50 years in this country, last five decades.β

Michael BublΓ© invited a nervous 15-year-old onstageβ¦ and then realized he needed to step aside. π₯ΉSam Hollyman started singing βFeeling Good,β and suddenly the entire moment changed. What happened next was unforgettable... π

This guy is an absolute legend!
THIS IS WHAT SPEAKING TRUTH TO POWER LOOKS LIKE
A man of extraordinary courage, conviction, and integrity.
Fearless, unapologetic, and utterly unwilling to bow to power or compromise his principles.
He has the backbone to say what others wouldnβt dare whisper, let alone declare publicly.

Jessica: It boggles my mind that Republicans would look at the outcome from Tuesday night and think, you know who needs a bigger job? Stephen Miller.
Texas is blue. Ted Cruz is sitting there by himself wondering if anyone will ever sit at a lunch table with him again.
If you want to win elections again, I think this is one of the dumbest things you could do

THIS is the young man who is the first Texas Democrat in 38 years to win a seat in the US Senate. Elon Musk poured over $200 MILLION into preventing this from happening and he FAILED π James Talarico, ladies and gentlemen.

After failing our servicemembers and starting new forever wars, Pete's desperate to keep his job.
Tick tock, Mr. Secretary.
Better start packing up your make-up room at the Pentagon.
Time's up.

WATCH: In a stunning moment, Rep. Jamie Raskin says Democrats are going to take back power from the Executive Branch:
βWe have the power to declare war, not Donald Trump. We have got the power to regulate federal buildings. If the president can bulldoze the east wing, he can bulldoze the west wing. It is not his house. It is our house, it belongs to the people, and Congress governs it.β

To argue that @AbdulElSayedβs religion makes him unfit for public office appeals to the worst demons in our nature.

The degree of raging, brazen Islamophobia in the Michigan Senate campaign outstrips any anti-Semitism there by orders of magnitude. People can try to both-sides thisβand, in particular, they may try to pretend otherwise by magnifying the anti-Semitism they see in the guise of opposing itβbut the evidence is clear, and deeply disturbing.
If you support Rogers, youβre supporting rabid bigotryβnot just in Michigan, but in the White House.

There are people who put a lot of effort into their home for Halloween and there is this guy.
