We need to do everything we can to support great congressional candidates during these last few weeks of the election. Changing the face of Congress is as important is changing the face in the White House. @JDScholten
‘We need to get this back to a democracy, of the people, by the people, and for the people.’ — Iowa congressional candidate @JDScholten has a new message for the district that sent Steve King to the House of Representatives

The issue isn’t simply that he supports white supremacists; the issue is that he is one.

It’s not just that he uses white supremacists to build his political base. It’s that their philosophy guides his governing behavior...i.e. Muslim ban, family separation at the border, demonizing Black Lives Matter etc.

People are telling me tonight that they asked me before, but I didn’t know. I would be glad to go on their podcast.

Trump used the debate tonight to send a message to his white supremacist devotees. They heard him and are feeling very special now. How can it not be an impeachable offense to encourage armed white supremacists to “be ready?”

When asked, the president refused to condemn white supremacist groups. He even said the Proud Boys should “stand back and stand by.” And Don Jr. is asking for “an army” of volunteers to “protect the vote.” They are proactively planning voter intimidation on Nov. 3.

This is it in a nutshell. And none of it came out of nowhere. It’s the result of specific economic policies, particularly tax policies, designed to create and maintain the new American status quo.
While millionaires and billionaires own 79.2% of all wealth in our country, the bottom half of Americans own just 1.5% of our nation's wealth.
Justice Brandeis was right: "We can have democracy, or we may have wealth concentrated in the hands of a few, but we can't have both."
