Im confused at some of the outrage when this path is exactly what prominent folks on here suggested as well - and when mainly black ppl said no thanks there was an uproar

Shutdown Deal Kills Rules to Prevent Food Contamination and Foodborne Illnesses The gutting of these rules coincides with a huge increase in hospitalizations and deaths from foodborne illnesses.

Congressโ€™s shutdown deal eliminated key food safety rules, blocking agencies from enforcing measures to prevent contamination and trace outbreaks. This rollback has coincided with a surge in hospitalizations and deaths from foodborne illnesses.

Exactly what it says on the label: The Pope in 1982. He's wearing a black hat, dark RayBans, and looks like he's a member of the Blues Brothers.

What's from Chicago, hates Illinois Nazis, and is holy as fuck?

It's the Pope in 1982.

Has anyone else written about how the push for AI essentially nullifies the trickle down economics framework. The argument was that you deregulate and remove taxes b/c corporations create jobs. With AI the opposite is true, b/c the selling point is workforce reduction & job replacement

All those people who said that the administration spent up the SNAP money are probably right. I follow a lawyer on IG who just posted this because they read the court documents.

Black americans are formidable.

In history of human species we have never bowed to evil.

Not then
Not now

We shame the devil and we speak truth to power

No fear. Just conviction

Black americans is the greatest ethnic group for we have seen real evil and lived to tell the tale

And maybe that's the whole point of my thread here. I hope the Senate exceeds my expectations tonight. But if they don't, don't blame a party. Blame the institution, and those members who have put the interests of Senators over the interests of the American people. And demand better.

I would not be surprised if it comes out that various corporate interests are putting their thumbs on the scales behind the scenes to end the shutdown before Thanksgiving travel/Black Friday and thatโ€™s why ppl are talking about signing

Opinion | Mamdaniโ€™s Victory Is Less Significant Than You Think

The New York Times quickly sending out Douthat to argue that Mamdaniโ€™s victory doesnโ€™t really matter is so predictable it borders on self-parody.

Remember, folks: Every time the Right wins an election, itโ€™s an undeniable expression of the will of the people. If a lefty wins, itโ€™s just a blip.
