Adam’s knew Trump!

Gotta love Bono in this new interview praising Canada for rejecting Poilievre the populist and electing the thoughtful, intelligent & competent Carney. “51 reasons to love Canada,” indeed. Poilievre is reviled and Carney is revered inside & outside of this great country. 🇨🇦 (Part 2 in thread below)

House Republicans have finally released the complete version of their dreadful plan. And its confirmed our worst nightmares. This monstrous legislation demolishes health coverage and food assistance for millions. Heading to the Capitol for debate.

This is real life, y’all. These aren’t “democratic talking points”—this is a real mother and real babies at risk of going hungry, all because Republicans want to be greedy. Somebody please tell me how you can feed a growing family of 6 on $15 per day… you can’t.

I can study all my life: Denmark pays students $1,000 a month to go to universities, with no tuition fees

Life-saving drugs should be accessible, not grossly overpriced just to explode unjust profits. It's time to end the practice of these extreme price hikes and the unjust corporate concentration and market monopolization that makes it possible. We need fair competition and just pricing.

Despite swearing otherwise just months ago, Republicans have now revealed their plan to take Medicaid away from millions of Americans. There has to be accountability - for the harm and for the lies.

The US health care system is broken & wildly expensive. The function of a health care system is not to provide billions in profits for insurance & drug companies. It is to provide quality care as a human right. The time is NOW to pass Medicare for All.

Fear has a way of being contagious. But courage is also contagious.

Right NOW! 👇 Let’s. Do. This. 😎✨

I’ve been thinking a lot about various nudges, policies, and technologies that could get us to eat less meat, and I must admit I didn’t think of making meat super-dangerous.

Finland just seems to get it right - education, housing. #TaxTheRich #ClassWar

"This isn't a battle of your choosing. But it is the battle for which you will always be judged. This is the moment you must show the world and history which side of the Edmund Pettis Bridge you are standing on." - Stuart Stevens

BREAKING: Senator Chris Van Hollen just confirmed: Trump is colluding with El Salvador to violate a U.S. Supreme Court order. Worse? They're using American taxpayer money to torture a man with zero evidence of any crime. Republicans? Dead silent. This isn’t just illegal — It’s evil.

That the United States is not only sanctioning such shocking inhumanity, but is also *paying* for it, is so despicable. And that silence you hear is not one conservative "Christian" speaking out against it.

Never forget.

JUST IN: The National Labor Relations Board told employees Wednesday that DOGE staffers would be assigned to the agency, one day after a whistleblower alleged DOGE may have removed sensitive NLRB data.

Meanwhile! 🤣 Gotta love em! 🐧🐀
