And I am an ally. If you are too, let the world know.

In 2016 I was a nanny for the children of a conservative family. They were super excited about voting for Bernie. For a brief bit of time, there was hope that we could set aside party and vote together as working class people. Of course it didn't play out that way, but Bernie keeps fighting. ❤️

Buying Hooters to turn it into the world's first pay-what-you-can food pantry with virulently sexual undertones.

"It seems almost unavoidable at this point,"”that we are headed for a deep, deep recession." Between the hundreds of thousands of government jobs on the chopping block and the cancellations of countless federal contracts, the economist noted that upcoming employment… futurism.com/economist-el...

I’m telling you @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social, please watch this. This is the energy. Not egg prices and book tours and strongly worded letters. It’s time to take the gloves off.

ProPublica has released another study related to the effects of abortion bans in the U.S., this time showing a spike in sepsis cases in Texas following the implementation of that state's "heartbeat" abortion ban in 2021.

Get Ready For Delayed Tax Refunds, Long Hold Times After Mass IRS Firings But wealthy tax evaders will enjoy “a feast” as the strained federal agency lacks the resources to hold them accountable, said one tax policy expert.

John Fetterman’s staff are leaving him in droves and there are awful rumors about how he treats them. Are we sure he’s not just three Kyrsten Sinemas sitting on each other’s shoulders in a hoodie? Our latest:

People seem to be confused about which world leaders are dictators, so I made this handy flowchart to help them out

This is some serious shit not getting NEARLY enough hate from the supposedly sane half of the country!

Works as advertised

You know how you get that feeling when you're walking in an area that's abandoned and dark and your instincts kick in that something's fucked up and you need to get the hell out of there before the terrible thing happens and you're supposed to listen to that? That's how I feel living in the US now.

Winston Churchill was right: "Democracy is the worst form of government except for all those other forms that have been tried.” Too many Americans have fought and died defending democracy. We must stand with our European allies against the authoritarianism of Putin and Trump.

REVEALED: we identified the operator of an overtly racist X account, "GlomarResponder," as ICE Assistant Chief Counsel James Rodden, based on an overwhelming number of biographical details matched through publicly available documents, other social media activity, and courtroom observation.

Democratic leaders: I think it's abundantly clear at this point that simply going along to get along ain't gonna work. Trying to negotiate ain't gonna work. Being collegial ain't gonna work. What you're doing right now isn't working. Take your gloves off and punch back. Hard.

Remember Bucha. Remember Izium. Remember Mariupol. Remember Volnovakha. Remember the Ukrainian POW’s executed by ruSSia. Remember the stolen Ukrainian children. Remember that the US President extended the hand of friendship to the man responsible for all of that terror and more.❗❗❗Fuck Trump❗❗❗

This razor thin win for democracy is exactly why I've been in Wisconsin so much over the last few weeks. Wisconsin friends, we need to REJECT Brad Schimel (Elon Musk endorsed) on April 1st!!!

This is how it starts.
