Is This What “Maximum Pressure” Looks Like?

In the words of Sen.

Yes, Reporters Still Think You’re Stupid on Health Care

What you can do to fight back this week (May 21)

Another terrible school shooting. Once again the debates over how to stop the carnage of mass shootings begin, the talking heads recite their talking points, and politicians weigh the cost/benefit of saving lives versus pleasing big donors.
