Those in power want us, the working class, to fight each other while they extract as much wealth for themselves as they can.

Guess which ‘one’ hasn’t figured it out yet?! 👇 Just one guess. 🇺🇸

I'd read the grapes of wrath like 25 years ago but i recently listened to the audiobook and was like holy shit this is a manifesto in prose form this guy must've caught a lotta shit when it came out so I looked it up n he got so many death threats he started carrying a gun

He was a movie star married to a pop star, and now after being accused of horrific crimes, he's eating shitty steak at a gaudy resort in America's sweltering asscrack.

again, why are we treating this like it has any legal authority?

“GM just announced a round of layoffs, impacting 1000 workers. But the company reported Q3 earnings that put it on track for record profits this year. Its CEO received $27M in compensation in 2023. And GM announced $6B in stock buybacks this June. Textbook corporate greed.” Robert Reich

From my friend Ashley Mack: 35 states have a state constitutional amendment or statutes prohibiting same-sex marriage. Chances are your state has a ban. SCOTUS justices as well as members of Trump’s incoming admin have suggested same-sex marriage should be a state issue. Local elections matter!

Wow, his rebuttal is really just like: 'Yeah, but have you seen the gay people Biden picked?' The only consistency in their ideology is hatred.

The House of Representatives should follow the precedent it set with Rep. Bill Boner by releasing the Matt Gaetz ethics report after a member resigns. Yes, there really was a guy named Bill Boner and Matt Gaetz is really going to share his fate. Florida man is out Florida-ing himself this time.

my opinion on "dems use too many polite euphemisms": the right has spent the last 40 years constructing the Lib-Owning Machine. it is fully self-powered and requires no actual input from the libs. it cannot be derailed by changing inputs because it can adapt to any fuel and, indeed, invent its own

Ever more evidence of exactly what a second Trump administration would mean www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

Kate Elliott has an excellent thread here. (You should follow her and read her work). Earlier this year, we were able to donate a bunch of money to the Transgender Law Center in memory of our dear friend Corey Alexander. I corresponded with the TLC, and they are good and thoughtful people.

Anyone have a rough number of deleted/closed Twitter accounts in the past 48 hours?

Anyone have some good F1 follows?

I really needed to read this today and sent it to my kids. Thank you for posting @catsofyore.bsky.social

The Resistance Starts Now I still have faith in America, but we must mobilize to protect those at risk if Trump achieves his worst impulses. Robert Reich Nov 06, 2024 robertreich.substack.com/p/the-resist...
