#ResistanceUnited #Voices4Victory Meta laid off 5% of its workforce, then a week later more than doubled its executive bonuses from 75% of 200% of base pay. Kinda like what's happening with the federal government. Still think billionaires are on your side? Then I've got a bridge to sell you.

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.
