Sign the petition to save The Late Show

NationBuilder Friend, Last week, CBS announced that it is cancelling Stephen Colbert's 'The Late Show.' This decision appears to be an attempt to stifle criticism of President Trump. But having voices like Stephen Colbert's has never been more important than it is right now. It lo…

What are they hiding?

My Website Facebook Twitter YouTube Contact Me Dear neighbor, Last night, Republicans passed Trump’s extreme rescissions package that takes a chainsaw to public broadcasting and foreign assistance. MAGA extremists claim this is about cutting supposed “waste, fraud, and a…

Something is fishy

NationBuilder Friend, The American people deserve the truth.  It is clear that this Administration is trying to cover up Trump’s connection to Jeffrey Epstein.  We know there are:  Photographs of Trump with Epstein Videos of Trump with Epstein at a party Plane logs that show…

The GOP Agenda

NationBuilder Friend, Republicans passed their Big Ugly Bill, cutting Medicaid and food assistance for millions of Americans. Their agenda is simple: to give tax cuts to billionaires at the expense of working families. Will you chip in today so we can keep fighting for the everyda…

Big, ugly betrayal

NationBuilder Friend, The GOP’s big, ugly budget is deeply unpopular and dangerous. And to no surprise, most Republicans are avoiding their districts and accountability. The ones who do show up are having a hard time defending their decision to rip away Medicaid from millions of A…

What Trump does best

NationBuilder Friend, Trump is doing what he does best right now — creating a crisis.  We all have the right to peacefully protest, and Californians who want to make their voices heard should be able to. Peaceful protest is a fundamental American freedom. However, acts of violence…

Billionaires’ bidding

Trump’s betrayal
