A Trump Judge Just Nixed Overtime Pay for Millionsโand Media Yawned
Remember the right-wing frenzy over โRich Men North of Richmondโ? Well, this ruling exposes Trump-MAGA hypocrisy on the working classโand reveals a big media failure.
A Trump-appointed judge just struck down a Biden rule expanding overtime pay to 4 million working people.
It's really surprising how little media coverage this has received. Trump faced no real questions about this issue during the campaign. 1/

โMatt Gaetz, President-elect Donald Trumpโs pick to lead the Justice Department, paid a woman for sex at a small, invitation-only party in Florida, where prostitution is illegal, in 2017 while he was a member of the House, the womanโs attorney said Monday.โ

This should terrify every American. It doesnโt matter where you stand on immigration. Using our military as a domestic law enforcement tool at mass scale will destroy its core purpose, turn the American people against them, and damage the institution for decades.

Jessica: Trump did not cross 50% of the popular vote, so a majority of Americans did not vote for him..

Dear Senate Republicans,
Grow a spine. Do your duty. You have sworn an oath to the Constitution and that means you are to protect the general welfare of this nation.
And THAT means saying no to RFK Jr, Tulsi Gabbard, and Matt Gaetz. Even if it costs you. Stand the fck up.

The Handmaid's Tale is a good book. But did you know that there's a book written by a Black woman about a post-apocalyptic Earth heavily affected by climate change and societal decline. The book was published in 1993, but is set in 2024 following a presidential election ๐ #BookSky #BlackBookSky

Just absorbing the fact that the first order of business in the new QAnon-inflected MAGA Republican era is to demand that Congress bury its report on sex trafficking and drug allegations against a Republican member of Congress who they're trying to promote to higher office.

So, where are the Blacks for Trump?
A cabinet should represent and reflect its people. This collection resembles an exclusive country club.

Some of you are not conceiving of racism in the right way youโre thinking of it as something interpersonal when itโs institutional & cultural. Itโs whiteness being primed to ascend whether it deserves to or NOT. Itโs being โthe defaultโ Trump is the embodiment of it

It's Time to Make a List
We are two weeks out from this stunning election result and this feeling of helplessness as we wait for January is overwhelming, so here are some suggestions for moving forward.
Are you sort of frozen and not sure how to move forward following this latest election catastrophe? My latest podcast discusses this and ways you can start to dig yourself out of this funk. shero.substack.com/p/its-time-t...

Joe Biden is a good man. Because if it were me I would pardon Hunter Biden while signing the documents in one hand and holding up my middle finger in the other for the cameras, and do a bunch of other shit that is far more controversial than that.
