Republicans Only Care About Children Before They’re Born
May. 9, 2016 12:00 pmBy Thom Hartmann A...When it comes to children, Republicans are hypocrites.
They go on and on about how “pro-life” they are, but they really only care about humans before they’re born. After that, they couldn't care less.
Case in point: the so-called “Improving Child Nutrition and Education Act of 2016,” the brainchild of Indiana Congressman Todd Rokita that would decimate a key part of the federal free lunch program.

State-Owned Bank of North Dakota is a HUGE Success!
May. 6, 2016 4:36 amBy Thom Hartmann A...In 2014, the state Bank of North Dakota was more profitable than Goldman Sachs and J.P. Morgan Chase. And, that's why every state should own their own depository institution.
Most people attributed the Bank of North Dakota's success with the oil boom in the region, but their latest report shows that last year was their most profitable year ever, despite the fact that their state's oil boom has become an oil bust.Fossil Fuel Billionaires Kill Children

If you've turned on a corporate 24-hour news network in the last couple of days, those are three things that you have definitely heard about.

Republicans have Rejected the Republican Party
May. 4, 2016 11:47 amBy Thom Hartmann A...Now that John Kasich and Ted Cruz have dropped out, it’s pretty much official: Donald Trump is the 2016 Republican nominee for president.
The pundits never saw this coming, but they should have. The Republican Party has been running a scam on its base for decades now, and voters were bound to discover this scam sooner or later.
