Para lo único que sirven las protestas de "No Kings"en Estados Unidos es para que los demócratas recolecten emails para pedir dinero para sus campañas y dar la apariencia de que existe oposición y resistencia en un país donde no hay ni una ni la otra 🙃

Funny how MAGA can watch a game full of mostly Black athletes, but halftime is where they suddenly demand cultural segregation.

Puerto Rico vergonzosamente representado en este artículo

Imagine thinking Mexicans in LA are the source of your problems but billionaires in Silicon Valley and Mar-A-Lago, who you’ve never met and never want to meet you, are your true friends and allies.

Citizens United is among the worst decisions in Supreme Court history. It's allowed billionaires to completely take over our politics and destroy our democracy. There are days when we are reminded just how pernicious that ruling was. Today is one of those days.
