People do what you pay them to do.
You pay corporate executives to make stock prices go up, not to make better products.
You pay politicians to get re-elected, not to govern well.
You pay reporters to get a bigger audience, not to tell the truth.
And so forth.
Be aware of what you pay people to do

I have only known a few law enforcement officers and soldiers who have killed in the line of duty. Each of them was remorseful that deadly use of force was necessary. Each was reflective. And each of the law enforcement guys went on admin leave pending investigation!

If there is an investigation then the people involved should be on administrative leave pending investigation

On this Veterans Day, let is remember and pay tribute to all who have served and are serving and those who have made the ultimate sacrifice. And let’s ensure they are treated with dignity, provided the physical and mental health care they deserve, and are able to afford to live in our communities. πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡Έ

The majority of Americans are good. We have heart. We have compassion. When we see others struggle, we want to lend a hand.

For too long, we’ve been divided and pitted against each other by those who crave obscene wealth and power.

Let’s change that. One election at a time.

Following an odious ICE raid in a daycare school, the North Center (Chicago) neighbors gathered to show their outrage and support to the two victims who were unjustifiably taken away.
For reference, a worker and a mom who were legally working, were kidnapped while kids were witnessing that atrocity.

Speaker Johnson: β€œIf we had a contingency fund for SNAP we’d use it.”

REALITY: There is one, Trump literally just deleted it off the USDA site 🀷🏼

Anyone get suspended for mocking the attack on Pelosi’s husband? For celebrating J6? For political assassinations in Minnesota?

I didn’t think so!

Where do you stand?

You can want solutions for the unhoused, you can want safer cities, but you can also be dead set against federalizing them and against military occupation.

I stand with DC!

Undocumented immigrants aren’t showing up to work because they face a double threat:

πŸ“Œ ICE could roll up to the job site, because it’s easier to target hardworking people than go after real criminals.

πŸ“Œ When the work’s done, some employers refuse to pay and threaten to call ICE.

FCC chairman implies they could start censoring comedians like Colbert who β€œhurt trump’s feelings”. He says a β€œcourse correction” is needed. Thus ends democracy. Wait till they start shutting down TV news people, podcasters, and print journalists. We’re digging deeper and deeper toward fascism.
