Maryland delegate Dereck Davis' proposed minimum wage bill looks an awful lot like the handiwork of North Carolina Republicans

Each week we will be reading the National Enquirer and highlighting the most important pieces of rubbish, drivel, and occasionally political subterfuge. All so you don't have to.

Trump's Black History Month gathering looked less like a meeting of leaders of the black community and more like a Trump Organization board meeting

No matter how you cut it, the status quo of campaign finance in which corporations and the super-wealthy can make virtually limitless contributions on behalf of candidates has allowed those with the most money a disproportional influence over our government. And it is you and I that pay the cost.

The United States is not a country where reporters should be scared to ask tough questions to powerful people. This is a country where the powerful should be scared of reporters asking tough questions.

There’s only one way to handle the GOP close-your-eyes-and-pretend-he’s-Reagan-fest we are about to behold. Drink. To excess. Make a game of it.

It seems as if the coverage of the 2016 presidential election has left media outlets without any credibility and they have been failing at their mission of serving the public interest.

The GOP’s commitment to saving a buck, while ignoring the real world implications of this ideology, has already caused countless deaths and resulted in tragic health outcomes for American citizens.

Harriet Tubman and other women having their likeness printed on currency is not equity - it is a distraction. In fact, one could consider it an ironic slap in the face.

A progressive warrior who, despite being drastically outspent by two opponents, decisively won his primary race in Maryland.

We will not stop fighting until Governor Snyder is removed from office.

If Republicans don’t do their jobs when they’re in Washington, what exactly is it that they do do?

Just how good of a job is she doing for Democrats?

Instead of waging a war on poverty, we have declared a war on drugs, got “tough” on crime, created for-profit prisons and enforced and condoned mass incarceration. As a result, we waged a war on the most vulnerable citizens in our country.

It is with great pleasure and tremendous pride that we formally announce our endorsement of Senator Bernie Sanders for the Democratic presidential nomination.

You couldn’t imagine the effort it took to narrow this list down to just ten Republicans! Though, I must say, finding the information for this blog was rather easy as there is an overwhelming amount of resources available. I guess that’s just what happens when literally almost every candidate from a political party is blatantly racist.

The day after what the pundits have, in their total dearth of creativity, dubbed “Super Tuesday 3,” every cable news channel is tripping over themselves to proclaim winners and losers. Was it Trump? Was it Kasich? Was it Hillary? Nope. It was the Black Lives Matter movement and our fight for racial justice.

Seriously, that's pretty racist.

Engage in direct democracy right here and now. Tell us who you support in the Democratic Primary.

Two weeks ago Mark Kirk, US Senator (R-IL), dropped $800,000 on an ad buy to attack his Democratic opponent, a veteran and Purple Heart recipient, for her positions on national security. Yes, you read that correctly. Mark Kirk is claiming that Representative (and Senate hopeful) Tammy Duckworth (D-IL), a veteran who lost both her legs in Iraq, is weak on terror and threatens our nation’s security because she signed on to support the acceptance of 200,000 Syrian refugees.

“Mitt is the authority on tax evasion! If he thinks Donny has something to hide, then we should trust him."

Wasserman Schultz is kind of like tonsils. If they keep on making you sick, just cut em out. You’ll never miss them.

Can you imagine if the 2000 Bush v. Gore case ended with a tied Supreme Court? Can you imagine if the 2016 election, with all its bombast and hyper-partisanship, ended with a tied Supreme Court?

Agenda Project Action Fund’s unique model marries the activities of a traditional marketing firm with a citizen-funded revenue stream. This unique model allows us to advance a core set of values – a philosophical architecture – rather than a specific policy proposal or politician.

The reckless budget cuts of Republican lawmakers like Governor Snyder have cost the lives of far too many innocent people. They have let diseases spread, they have permitted trains to crash, they have told parents to just sit and watch their children suffer from lead poisoning, and now they are responsible for infecting dozens with a rare and potentially fatal form of pneumonia.

For the good of the country, the future sustainability of the Democratic Party, and the ability for us to champion and implement our progressives ideas — the time has come to kick Debbie Wasserman Schultz to the curb and seek new leadership in order to restore faith in the Democratic Party.
