he's the worst union pres in my lifetime, but not quite bad enough to cause the teamsters to endorse Trump
Chavez-DeRemer told them during her hearing that she would operate at the “pleasure” of Trump’s wishes.
Oh wait, THAT O'Brien? Yeah, first he and his pals came for trans people, then they came for my reproductive rights. Then they got rid of food inspectors.
Yeah, bye.
Marshmallows for all, because it's every grievance for itself.
And horrible as all this is, one could argue the strategy of these voters paid off. The rate of killing in Gaza is sharply down under Trump
How about you step back and see the harm of this strategy and what it looks like: An alignment with Donald Trump to suppress Reproductive rights and LGBTQ people, while decentering Ukraine and Darfur and Rohingya. https://www.atlanticcouncil.org/blogs/ukrainealert/us-house-resolution-russian-abduction-of-ukrainian-children-is-genocide/
Those of us who were viewed as disposable have always known the truth.
