I am proud of the Eagles, and I'm a lifelong Chiefs fan.

It is still Black History Month and this is information we need seared into our heads so we never fucking forget.... I feel like there are several missing....like the entire rest of the country tbh #revolution2025

The week in review:

This is the House Republican budget plan that Donald Trump endorsed. Trickle up economics.

Elon’s mass harassment email to all federal employees underscores the importance of having unions to represent workers against abusive management.

The top 0.1% of Americans control $22 trillion in wealth. The bottom 50% control $3.8 trillion in wealth. Read that back. Folks, this is what oligarchy looks like.

The concentration of wealth in the hands of an elite few isn't just bad for our economy. It's corrosive to our democracy. When the wealthy and well-connected control our political system, the American people don't have a voice. The result is demagoguery and corruption.

I’ll say it again…

Just a random reminder that trickle-down economics was invented by conservatives in the 1980s to justify massive tax cuts for the wealthy and corporations. It’s been nothing short of a disaster.

What's the difference between firing someone "for DEI" and firing them because they are Black?

Trump's attacks on the USPS aren't new. For decades, the GOP has been trying to privatize the Post Office and other crucial public services — all to pad the profits of their wealthy corporate donors.

From United Humanists on FB

Medicaid is not for sale. NASA is not for sale. The Post Office is not for sale. America is not for sale. We have an obligation to resist kings. We outnumber them. And they can be overwhelmed.

How long until they realize FAFO

The battle of our day is no longer about Democrats versus Republicans or left versus right. The choice right now is democracy or dictatorship. And we're sliding faster than I ever thought possible into the latter. Everyone must choose which side they’re on. Now.

There are basically 5 ways to accumulate a billion dollars: 1) Profiting from a monopoly 2) Insider-trading 3) Political payoffs 4) Fraud 5) Inheritance Don’t believe the self-made myth.

They just now noticed?

Being an annoying leftist at work by yelling from the other room that the new employee going through orientation actually has every right to discuss their wage with their coworkers and suggesting they can't is a tool by corporate to keep us from organizing.

I did not know the USPS was the largest employer of vets...now they are about to all lose their jobs. 5calls.org #RISE #REVOLT #REVOLUTION2025 #OpUSA

CARTOON OF THE DAY

Three updates: 1. The Justice Department has deleted a database tracking federal police misconduct. The database was first proposed in 2020 following the police killing of George Floyd.

I don't think the Dems can stop the firings. But why aren't they proposing legislation that assures those that took the buyout get paid , and that all that are fired, get at least a year severance and health benefits? And any one with a health condition is covered the entire time they are sick?

Spineless, yellow-bellied, lily-livered, weak-kneed, pusillanimous chickenshits.

For every $1 the IRS spends auditing the top 1%, it can collect $13. For every $1 the IRS spends auditing the top 0.1%, it can collect $26. Laying off 7,000 IRS employees (during tax season) isn't about efficiency. It's about making it easier for the rich to evade taxes.

There are moments in these deportation fights when I can just FEEL how pissed off they are that I’m Puerto Rican 😂 they want to threaten me with it so bad 😂
