Kroger has shut down four Colorado locations as grocery strike begins. The UFCW just launched these initial walk outs, but the strike could grow dramatically and spread across multiple strikes. Over 100,000 supermarket workers have authorized strikes across the West and PNW.

The MAGA reverse-Robin-Hood scheme would remove 11 Million people from Medicaid, 5 Million from the Affordable Care Act exchanges, slash SNAP by more than $700M, “strip 4.5 million children who are U.S. citizens or lawful permanent residents of eligibility for the Child Tax Credit,” and ..

When you see it.... (Down the right-hand column.)

the Star Tribune's writeup of the Boelter charges is a lot more provocative than the charging document itself

Have we lost all our empathy and tact? A car drives into protesters on purpose, hitting them, then flees. Do you reply: Did they catch the guy? Was anyone killed or seriously injured? or Protesters shouldn’t be out after curfew or in the streets or waving that flag or wearing those clothes.

ICE throws gas at protesters who immediately cone it then use boards to help fan the gas back at ICE.

Folx, my right hip hurts like crazy, but I am so dang proud of myself, my family, & my crew. We got the beds built, the solar panels put into the attic, the lights & linens & furniture set-up, & everyone is cozy & cared-for. I fucking love my tribe of BFFs who drove an HOUR for me, b/c I....

I deleted the request for the Murphy Bunk Bed. Why? Because the 14yro is 5'10" & 200lbs, & it ain't gonna hold him. 😆

Ok, Welp, THEYRE COMING TONIGHT. 😬 They weren't supposed to move in till July 5th, but the asshole just assaulted his own mother, & the wife & kids are applying for a protection order, while his mother presses charges. 💔

so it went the way we thought it would. Israel punches Iran, expects big daddy US to come bail it out. like every single other time.
