Michelle Redfern (@michelleredfern) Women can stop. In fact, we must stop. We must stop holding up the sky for patriarchy - in our homes, our workplaces, our sporting and social clubs. Icelandic women did it in 1975. We can do it...

For decades, I've said if women ran things we would not have the problems we are so deeply mired in today.

Women of America have the power to stop the madness of this admin.

Read Michelle Redfern's piece:

Women can stop.
In fact, we must stop.

$1 Billion Daily Cost of Trump's Iran War Could Fund Food Aid, Healthcare for Tens of Millions "Medicare for All, or endless foreign wars?" asked Democratic US Senate candidate Graham Platner. "Anyone in the House or Senate giving the wrong answer should lose their seat."

"The question isn’t whether the money existsβ€”it's what we choose to spend it on."
