Bipartisan plan would claw back CEO pay at failed banks
Under the bipartisan legislative proposal, regulators would have to seize pay from bank executives whose decisions trigger failures.
Exclusive: New legislation aims to hold bank executives accountable by allowing the FDIC to seize bonuses and pay if their banks collapse.
This bipartisan bill follows the 2023 failure of Silicon Valley Bank and seeks to deter risky financial practices.

Tell Congress: Stop Trump's War with Iran
Trump's unauthorized war in Iran has already taken the lives of US servicemembers and at least 1,000 Iranian civilians. It has devolved into a larger regional conflict, with missile and drone strikes,...
We need Democrats to be unified in their opposition but to get that, we constituents have to make it clear that a vote to fund this war isnβt just any vote β it's a vote that will define their political careers for years to come.

Now, my military service was in the Army, but I've known some swabbies in my time. Some of them are here. Hopefully they will square my ass away if I'm mistaken in thisπassumption.
Wouldn't you also need mine layer ships and equipment to REMOVE mines? Is this a mind-fuck setup, or just more idiocy?

How Faith Forward Democrats Are Flipping The Script On Christian Nationalists
Are the 'What Would Jesus Do?' politics of James Talarico the key to taking MAGA down?
Christian nationalism has become a driving force at the highest levels of the Trump administration, shaping policy in dangerous ways. Now, a new generation of Democrats, including James Talarico in Texas, are using their own faith to reframe progressive values and bring new voters into the fold.

The Ayatollah is *alleged* to have *tried* to kill Trump. Well, guess what, Ted? Trump actually DID kill the Ayatollah. And I bet you wouldn't use the word "murder" to describe that, would you?
And Trump killing Iranian schoolgirls *increases* risks to him and other Americans, you dishonest tool.

Small reminder.
Women currently have more legal rights in Iran than in Saudi Arabia.
This does not mean we support the Iranian regime.
We wish democracy for the people of Iran and freedom for Iranian women. We wish the same for the people and women of Saudi Arabia.

Federal agents are now restricted from using tear gas and other chemical or projectile munitions against peaceful protestors and freelance journalists near the ICE processing center in Portland.

How Weβre All Now Paying the Price for the Myth
of Trumpβs Competence
The administrationβs war with Iran is setting a mountain of taxpayer dollars on fire every dayβmostly because he doesnβt know what heβs doing.
The man is, whatever his other faults, just way in over his head. Maybe Democrats should say that more often. The fact that heβs costing taxpayers a billion dollars a day on a war most of them didnβt want may be a good place to start. trib.al/oQGYMWP
