Casual reminder that the myth of โ€œpulling yourself up by your bootstrapsโ€ is a cruel hoax designed to convince poor people from all walks of life that the injustices they face are a result of their own actions, rather than an oppressive system rigged against them.

NEW: EXCLUSIVE: I spoke to sources at FBI and DOJ that reviewed the Epstein files. Itโ€™s worse than the photos. Iโ€™ll let you know what they said today at 3:30 PM PT / 6:30 PM ET on @meidastouch.com. Link to show: www.youtube.com/live/hEi77Ib...

Yes, Mr. President: Youโ€™re right. We do have โ€œthe worst health careโ€ of any major country.

Despite spending twice as much per capita, we are the only major country not to guarantee health care to all as a human right.

The solution: Medicare for All.

Someone should go there and show them the clips of Trump's Great Gatsby party. I bet they'd be so happy to know he's having fun.

โ€˜How is this possible?โ€™: a new film looks inside the appalling abuses of the Alabama prison system In the yearโ€™s most shocking documentary, The Alabama Solution, prisoners share astonishing footage in a plea for help

And now, if you read the devastating piece about what Venezuelan deportees endured at the El Salvador torture prison, read what incarcerated U.S. citizens endure in Alabama prisons.

State prisons in the U.S. that are massive systems of human rights violations.

Newsom: They want to bring us back to a pre-1960s, maybe 1860s world. And youโ€™re seeing it not just on voting rightsโ€”youโ€™re seeing it on civil rights, on womenโ€™s rights, on LGBTQ rights. Theyโ€™re censoring historic facts. Theyโ€™re on a banning bingeโ€”Bud Light and Big Bird

Senate Dems, do not cave. Ensuring healthcare premiums donโ€™t surge is an 80-20 issue. They want to gut the ACA because their disdain for Obama far outweighs their concern for anyoneโ€™s health.

Shapiro: He rose to some prominence by writing a book about growing up in Appalachia, where there are a whole lot of people who get SNAP. He made millions of dollars off telling their stories, and then he turned his damn back on those very people he likes to write about and claim as his own.

If this evidence ever sees the light of day, I want prosecutors, judges, and juries to see it, but I have absolutely no interest in viewing any of it.

Itโ€™s been 45 days since Adelita Grijalva was elected by the people of Arizona.

Mike Johnson is still refusing to swear her in because sheโ€™s the final vote for the discharge petition to release the Epstein files.

Trump administration set to appeal judgeโ€™s strict ruling on SNAP A federal judge admonished the Trump administration for causing โ€œirreparable harmโ€ and said it must act by Friday to help โ€œhungryโ€ recipients.

Trump is appealing a federal judgeโ€™s ruling on SNAP benefits

That's evidence Trumpโ€™s administration is resisting efforts to provide full food assistance to low-income Americans.

wealthy people arenโ€™t wealthy because they โ€œtake risks.โ€

they insulate themselves from the serious risks working people face every day.

neoliberalism supports this by removing workersโ€™ rights to organize.

I study fascism. Iโ€™ve already fled America. On this weekโ€™s โ€œMore To The Story,โ€ former Yale philosophy professor Jason Stanley explains his recent move to Canada and calls the Trump administrationโ€™s takeover of the US government a โ€œcoup.โ€

Jason Stanley isnโ€™t afraid to use the F-word when talking about President Donald Trump.

The author of How Fascism Works and Erasing History: How Fascists Rewrite the Past to Control the Future is clear: He believes the US is currently under an authoritarian regime led by a fascist leader.

My question is whether it was the drug use, Nazi salutes, election interference, racist and antisemitic tweets, creepy pronatalism, chilling sociopathy, puzzling inarticulateness, allegations of IP theft or persistent flouting of US law that pushed Tesla bros over the top on gifting Elon $1 trillion

CNN: "A brand new report is out showing layoff announcements hit their highest level for October in over 20 years. It's painting a picture of a job market that is really hurting. US-based employers announced 150,074 job cuts in October, more than any October since 2003."
