Just so everybody is clear on Republican priorities: We put up an amendment to make sure nobody making over $500 million gets a tax cut. Republicans voted against it.

This is even more unconstitutional than usual. Article I gives Congress the power to establish the post office. It cannot be "dissolve[d]" by the Executive.

About the BWCAW Gunflint Ranger Station in Grand Marais: "Her immediate supervisor abruptly retired, too, and now, Nezhad said, the Gunflint office that already dealt with staffing deficits has no employees. The office used to have seven or eight people." www.startribune.com/how-will-job...

People don’t give a shit if it's one or two bills. They care that Republicans are hellbent on cutting the $6 per day families get in nutrition assistance and the Medicaid benefits millions of working families rely on to see a doctor. And for what? To pay for more tax cuts for giant corporations.

Good riddance. But remember that Trump’s goal is to privatize the Postal Service, DeJoy or not. When your mail is late or missing, it’s their fault.

📌Your (our) social security information is being compromised as I type this. 📌It is one of the biggest stories in United States history, and for the life of me I don’t understand why it isn’t being treated this way. 📌Fucking sirens should be blaring. It is a full-on emergency.

🙏🏼 Spend just six minutes of your time with this one, good people, while the 82-year-old Paul McCartney deals in art and genius ... 🙏🏼 Be brave enough to listen to it through the prism of these difficult times. 🙏🏼 It'll break your heart, bring much-needed tears, and fill the well of undying hope ...
