This morning, I spoke at the SOMOS Labor Breakfast.

"We are not looking to remake New York City in my image. We are looking to remake it in the image of struggling workers across the five boroughs."

saw this. had to share.

Fourteen suburban moms arrested in sit-in protest outside Broadview ICE facility The mothers sat in a circle on Beach Street on Friday to “demand an end” to the immigration raids that have swept through the Chicago area since the Trump administration launched “Operation Midway Bli...

This morning, in Broadview, 14 suburban women were arrested during an act of civil disobedience calling for an end to ICE/CBP’s kidnappings throughout the Chicago area.

“We want to encourage other people who feel strongly about ICE’s actions to step off the sidelines and take our cities back.”

"Let me be clear: The president has both the funding and the authority to fund SNAP during a shutdown. In fact, every other president in every other shutdown has done so. People going hungry in this instance is a choice that this president has made.”

Gov. Andy Beshear

Holy shit!!!

Tens of thousands of Americans will starve as a direct result of Project 2025 eliminations.

Most of these victims will be white people. Yet, this is what White America chose—gleefully.

I work nights so I sleep during the day. On my off nights I sometimes bake bread. I keep a bit of dough so that I can fold some cheese and meat into a pocket. That way when the smell of fresh bread wakes my wife, I can offer her a little treat and I don't have to cut hot bread.

I think both can be true. If there were a clear #1 it would serve them to prioritize one driver and the other can help with strategy. They spent so long taking points off each other.

Ahhh. Gotcha.

I don't know that it serves us (non oligarchs) to think of working class as a real thing anymore. The folks at the top have so much and the 99% have to work so hard (or be so lucky) as to make feudalism look appealing. Everyone who is not controlling capital is in the same boat, relatively speaking.

This is like them thinking they are the good guys in Star Wars.

Chicago Mayor Issues Defiant Call For A General Strike It was an audacious proposal, given that the U.S. has never held a true, nationwide general strike.

Whoa. Chicago mayor calls for a general strike; now we're talking

Tax Day Is Met With Tea Parties (Published 2009)

Here's a gift link to the New York Times' coverage of the initial Tea Party rallies in April 2009 which inspired the media to treat it like a massive movement.

Check out how tiny the crowds were:

Philly: 200
DC: "several hundred"
Boston: 500
Austin: 1,000
Houston: 2,000

We showed out y'all.

Source unknown but its an aerial shot of the Missoula No Kings rally.

The Obama Hope poster, but it's a frog and it says "Hop"

I saw a tragically AI-generated version of this poster, so I have recreated a 100% human-made version for all your protest sign needs.

South Korea: #NoKings! Thousands of people came to show support to the US democracy!

Accurate as fuck. They both need to be removed from the White House, ASAP.

Nice recap

MYTH: ICE agents lack proper training. FACT: Most have been racists their entire lives.

Welp, here it is: maybe the funniest thing we've ever done, in its entirety.

Look at all these stupid countries around the world holding their leaders accountable and acting like the laws apply to everyone evenly. What a bunch of suckers.

I like Jimmy Kimmel. I really do. I have no issues with him.

I'm talking about something very different.

Kimmel was only suspended. But he's back now. Karen Attiah and all the other Black journalists are still fired.

Y'all do know how to fight, when you want to.

But you don't really want to. 🤷🏿‍♂️

Well, there it is. Sinclair is digging in for a fight, so please help push back -- find stations in your area, watch their local news to see what ads they run, then write those advertisers to tell them you're boycotting as long as they're on a Sinclair station.

People say that if you want to get the chef’s actual intention for a recipe you should resist the urge to put in more garlic than they say, because it’s been carefully worked out to balance the flavours properly. But I say leave me alone I will eat my cereal however I like.

Oh my. I can almost taste this.

I'd like to solve the puzzle. 🖕😆🖕

Depends on the importance of the meeting but I extend a minimum of 5 mins grace. Whenever I do decide to leave, I shoot an email to them to record that I was there and I'm not the reason the meeting didn't come off.
