Republicans won’t raise the federal min wage of $7.25 because they Claim it will tank the economy—hasn’t budged since 2009. California raised it to $16.50 statewide, $20/hour for fast food—and in cities like West Hollywood, it’s $19.61. No collapse. No chaos. Just the 4th biggest economy on Earth.

It isn't that America lacks courage. It's that we’ve become so cut off from one another that many of us feel alone, which makes us feel afraid. But when we are surrounded by courageous people, all of us become more courageous. Courage is contagious.

Veterans, seniors, legal residents, women, children--there is hardly a segment of American society that hasn't been viciously screwed over by the Shitler regime. It is in fact infuriating that those who fought for and defended the United States of America should be treated like so much garbage.

3 days ago RFK Jr. told the CDC to stop recommending water fluoridation, claiming it was a neurotoxin (this is a lie). Turns out he also just eliminated the CDC’s entire Lead Program, and now lead poisoned children in Milwaukee are just on their own. Lead IS a neurotoxin and harms brain development
