It’ll always break my heart that we could’ve had an extraordinary President with Kamala Harris and instead we have a disgusting rapist criminal traitor.

Many are asking what should we do now? “We use our power, organize, mobilize, educate…the American story will not be written by who occupies the White House or by the wealthiest among us…it will be written by you, by ‘we the people.’” -fmr VP Kamala Harris receiving the NAACP Chairman’s Award.

This is your regular reminder that if unions didn't work, giant corporations wouldn’t spend millions and millions of dollars trying to stop workers from making them. Unions give workers power, and billionaire CEOs don't like that.

CFPB was created to stop big banks & lenders from ripping us off in the wake of the foreclosure crisis. Rent & home prices are unaffordable and skyrocketing. College costs are an all-time high. Junk fees are out of control. The worst possible moment to gut the watchdog protecting our pocketbooks.

Pete is a racist. He cannot stand to be in the presence of a Black man so obviously his superior in every conceivable way. Racism makes people stupid. It also makes them very very jealous and insecure.

GM Bluesky. Taking a personal day today so they don’t go to waste. Use your PTO teachers, it’s part of your compensation. In other news… The Hill is just now realizing that there may be a vaccination problem in America… JFC… So, protect that peace, vaccinate your kids, and relax your jaw.✌️

Costco and Trader Joes are yin and yang. Together they form a harmonious balance. One sells big piles of normal food, the other sells small piles of weird food. These are the two food piles people need

Today, I found out that the Department of Defense banned the Well-Read Black Girl anthology by Glory Edim. I was one of its contributors. I'm really hurt right now. So if you have it in you, please buy books by Black women from independent bookstores.

I have solved Bird Flu. Give the chickens ivermectin. Have the chickens practice Earthing. The problem with their immune systems is they are not touching the soil enough. Coffee enemas for all chickens. Also we must stop reading them Ibram X. Kendi. Eggs will be back and most importantly not gay.

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?
