Yes we can. If we taxed billionaires, we could have universal healthcare, fix the housing crisis, AND eliminate food insecurity. Billionaires don’t need tax cuts, but CHILDREN do need to be fed, have safe houses, and comprehensive healthcare. Tax them and stop them from exploiting and oppressing us

Maybe we CAN afford universal healthcare. We just have to choose THAT instead of creating and subsidizing billionaires.

This is so true.

From David Graeber's 2007 essay “Army of Altruists” (published in Harper’s), discussing Americans’ social conditioning contrasted with certain Europeans.

Graeber argues Americans are encouraged to think of freedom only as an individual feeling, rather than as a collective capacity to shape society.

Adelita Grijalva hit the nail on the head: True troop support means funding veterans' health ＆ housing, not slashing it! Let's keep backing our vets, their families, and the federal workers who serve them. #VeteransDay

I will say it again. The Roberts court is the most corrupt court in modern history. It all started with giving Presidents immunity, followed by Roberts himself refusing to implement an enforceable code of ethics. He and the right wing of this destructive court are reprehensible.

#BREAKING: Over a public dissent from Justice Jackson, #SCOTUS *extends* the temporary pause of the district court’s order that had mandated full SNAP payments for November—keeping that ruling (and those payments) on hold through the end of the day this Thursday:

Tucked into the appropriations bill that the Senate just passed is a measure that allows the 8 Republican senators whose phone logs were seized as part of Jack Smith’s J6 investigation to sue the government for up to $500,000 apiece!
- WTF, Democrats!

Thank you for standing up for your constituents, for this country and for democracy.

Thank you, Senators. This is why you’ll continue to have the support of the people.

How Chuck Schumer Planned the Shutdown Capitulation to Trump In brief. And then in excruciating detail

Short version:

Trump: I'm dismantling the Constitution, building a paramilitary fascist army loyal only to me, blowing up the US economy for my billionaire cronies, and destroying the planet.

Schumer: Okay, but you have to extend subsidies for corporate health care

Trump: No

Schumer: Okay

In an unforgettable Veterans Day moment, former President Barack Obama surprised dozens of Korean and Vietnam War veterans as their Honor Flight landed in Washington, D.C. The veterans, fresh off their flight from Madison, Wisconsin, were greeted by President Obama himself.

Tax the rich, pay the people, & spread the power. That's the mission of @patrioticmillionaires.org.

I have been VERY concerned about this ever since that crackpot was appointed to head the HHS. Millions of Americans depend on SSRIs for their mental health, and these assholes may just decide they're bad because, well, they're crackpot assholes. RFK is a severe threat to public health.

Well that’s is what Republicans do. This iteration of the Republican Party cannot be trusted at all

We’ll see. I don’t trust any Republican to do anything but LIE.

BIG NEWS: Congresswoman-elect Adelita Grijalva will finally be sworn in as a member of Congress tomorrow.

She is likely to be the 218th vote on the Epstein discharge petition, which would force a full vote to release the Epstein files in their entirety.

Yeah well bsky.app/profile/cweb...

We'll be on Capitol Hill next week with veterans from across the country to meet with members of Congress and make it clear:

Our elected officials have the power and the responsibility to stop President Trump's misuse of the military.

Exactly. Schumer and Durbin need to go.

Well there are a hell of a lot more Democrats across this country that are F*****g pissed off that ANY of you voted to stop this shut down. In the words of Jon Stewart you a**holes “snatched defeat from the jaws of victory”. If you won’t stand up for your constituents get the hell out of the way.

Name them.

I believe it. But I am so F*****g pissed off it’s not funny. Get Schumer & Durbin out of leadership positions. They obviously do not have the spines to fight for their constituents, to fight for democracy or to fight for America.

This is sheer perfection.
