Adelita Gravalja needs to set up her table right next to her colleague @adelitaforcongress.bsky.social

Meta is earning a fortune on a deluge of fraudulent ads

> "Meta projected 10% of its 2024 revenue would come from ads for scams and banned goods, documents seen by Reuters show. And the social media giant internally estimates that its platforms show users 15 billion scam ads a day. Among its […]

Adelita Grijalva needs to set up her table right there. @adelitaforcongress.bsky.social

There is a compromise on the table to get this deal done and reopen the government while keeping health insurance premiums down. But the sole problem, plain and simple, is Mike Johnson.

Wild that @schumer.senate.gov @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social didn’t think this energy was important to get behind.

A Chicago jury should indict him

“.. in a group Signal chat, .. he wrote in part: ‘I fired 5 rounds and she had 7 holes. Put that in your book boys.’”

I'd love to know the scoop on this. Is it her that's nuts or is maga cracking because of the election & Chump's abysmal numbers

They are so good at this.

This really hasn’t gotten enough attention this week.

Brand new data:

Republicans blamed for the shutdown (+12) and for health care premiums going up (+28!!).

These are stunning numbers. Republicans aren't immune from the pressure this creates.

Time to press our advantage. Stand for what we believe in.

basically every 2024 truism is dead. Trump did not build a lasting multiracial coalition or turn young men into committed Republicans. You don’t need to cave on trans rights to win. The pundits have nothing left to tell you.

Oh shit

In 1789, the women of Paris walked the 30km or so to Versailles to demand bread from the king Louis XVI.
Hunger is a very destabilizing factor for governments. The GOP is asking for trouble.

POTUS has nothing on his public schedule today until phoning it in to a couple of tele-rallies in NJ & VA. At 7pm. Recovering from a long 3 day weekend in Palm Beach while 42M Americans go to work & school without SNAP benefits. USA is being destroyed by a lazy, spoiled predator.

Hey if you can't bear listening to Trump's 60 Minutes interview, just listen to @samsteindc.bsky.social & #willsaleton riff on the interview. Much less painful but still informative. @thebulwark.com

Drag Noem to Nuremberg

I’ll be glad when we run this regime out of power and we do something about those ICE assholes.

They should be tried for their crimes against humanity.

California – this Election Day, vote yes on Prop 50.

California’s Prop 50 says that if Republicans are going to abuse the system to try and hang onto power, we’re going to counteract that abuse and create a level playing field in the midterm elections.

Make a plan to vote yes on Prop 50.

Neguse: "It is outrageous that the Trump administration can come up with $40 billion to bail out Argentina and refuses to spend the money that Congress has appropriated to feed hungry families in America."

Starbucks' outrageous CEO-to-worker pay gap might make you spit out your morning coffee. And we're supposed to believe Starbucks can't afford to bargain a fair contract with its unionized workers?

Neguse: "Does anyone here not believe that with one phone call from Speaker Johnson -- one phone call to the president or the secretary of ag -- that those funds would be released tomorrow? And that families wouldn't go starving by the weekend?"

This is how our government has been corrupted:

1) Donors give huge sums to elect politicians to office
2) Elected officials rewrite rules in the donors' favor
3) Donors make huge profit
4) Repeat

We must get big money out of politics.

It is the root of our dysfunction.

Mike Johnson allowing Jeffrey Epstein to keep Arizona’s 7th congressional district without representation for now nearly 8 months.

700,000 more Epstein victims thanks to enabler Mike Johnson, who has weaponized the files against them.

This story is insane. A man who posted a meme of Trump saying “we have to get over it” in a discussion about the CK shooting has been in jail for 2 months with a $2M bond. Meanwhile, the man who actually threatened to kill Hakeem Jeffries is out on bail.

Cost to fund SNAP and keep 42 million people from starving:

$100 billion

Cost of lost revenue due to tax cuts for the richest Americans in the top 1%:

$100 billion

One is decried as "welfare." One is not.

Why?
