We wanted them to have healthcare and a high paying job and a planet to live on and freedom. They want us to suffer. The parties are not the same.

Bright passionate people who wanted to dedicate their lives to public service were fired in a mass email over the holiday weekend. This has absolutely nothing to do with efficiency, fraud, waste, or abuse. And your life will be worse because of it.

Adams must be removed. The city cannot sustain being governed for nearly a year by a Mayor who is being coerced by Trump admin in order to escape charges. This corruption poses a real threat to the people of the city. He should have resigned a while ago, but will not. So it’s time for him to go.

Just saw a post screenshotting this & saying they’d unfollowed me over it. Some Dems are responding well, but some aren’t and the base is clearly mad about it. There will be primary challenges, and just like AOC in 2018, a few of them will be successful. So … sorry for saying that out loud?

Understand this: by trying to kill the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, Elon Musk and Russ Vought are trying to make it easier for big banks to cheat you. It’s another way the Trump administration wants to reward the rich and powerful while hurting working people.

At one point in my life I wanted to be a billionaire so that I could donate all my money to good causes. I was young and foolish. I now know that billionaires amass wealth by exploiting the people they pretend to help via philanthropy. Billionaires are the problem— not the solution.
