Sen. Booker (D-NJ): “I am sick and tired of hearing this kind of heated partisan rhetoric, which is one of the reasons we have divisions in this country. The attacks we see from POTUS, trolling and dragging judges is what we should be talking about that puts people in danger.”

This may save millions of lives--except in the US, where ignorant kook Robert Kennedy Jr will probably ban it because of some ridiculous, totally made-up reason.

1/2 Today in Minneapolis, ICE/FBI raided a taco restaurant, yes, you read that correctly, a taco restaurant, dressed in full battle gear—long guns, body armor, the whole damn militarized show. Do they think they’re in a war zone? This is about instilling terror, rooted in racism. It won’t work.

This is Mertarvik, Alaska, population 300. It’s a new town. Its residents, the vast majority of whom are Yup’ik, began moving in around 2019. The move was by necessity: The nearby village where many residents previously lived, Newtok, is sinking, its riverbanks eroding. THREAD 🧵

It wouldn’t be hard to protect Medicaid and funding to rural hospitals and still reduce our nation’s ballooning debt and deficit. The Rs would just have to make the wealthy and corporations pay slightly more in taxes. (PS Rs are never serious about the debt and deficit when they are in power).

Bernie: "What that is all about is that if you're rich in America, you can make campaign contributions, you are entitled to massive tax breaks because you're superhuman beings. But if you're a poor working stiff, working at McDonald's, struggling to put food on the table, you're entitled to nothing"

Beautiful day in the park. Soaking up sun, splashing in the creek, skipping rocks and being an overall menace as usual. Wish we'd had a cucky sub along to carry our things so I could have held hands with hubby. Oh well, maybe next time 😌

any democrat not running on a policy of 'jailing elon musk and taking all of his stuff' should be shunned. you fucking cannot tell us for months that he is doing a coup and stealing data from the government and literally killing millions in africa and then be like 'well what if he's good again'

The Secretary of Education doesn’t know American history. That’s not failure—it’s strategy. They erased the past so they can control the future. 📕 Erased exposes who’s behind it—and why it works. Read it before they wipe the rest out too: stan.store/gxldsociety/...

Some economists question accuracy of recent US inflation data due to BLS staffing shortages. Hiring freeze forced survey to cut back on # of businesses where it checks prices; govt statisticians had to use a less precise method for guessing price changes more extensively than they did in the past.

WATCH: “It's totally unconscionable,” says Sen. Bernie Sanders on the GOP bill that would kick 11 million Americans off health care. “And to do that in order to give massive tax breaks to people today on the top—who have never ever had it so good—is beyond cruel.”

For years we've heard from the right about "welfare queens" and other so-called "freeloaders" pulling one over on the government. But actually, it's the wealthy who are the real freeloaders — pulling one over on us all by skirting their taxes. Where is the outrage over that?

Emotional intelligence will absolutely make you the black sheep or scapegoat of an abusive family, church, or peer group-- which is a sign that emotional intelligence & sensitivity are among your MOST potent recovery tools. If "they" consider it a weakness or flaw: look closer.
