Increase in hourly pay since 1979: 32%
Just so happens that ~25% of workers were unionized in 1979. Today? 10%.
As unions declined, the super-rich have taken a larger share of wealth generated by labor. We must build back union power.

Itβs Thursday. There are 355 days until the midterm elections. Republicans are ready to finish off Obamacare, Trumpβs cover-up (no, a different one) and the right is really, really gross.
Iβm reading Nobodyβs Girl by Virginia Guiffre and the entitlement of these rich men boggles the mind. Girls (and women) are not property or playthings for their benefit. They (the men) are gross and disgusting. They make me sick to my stomach.

Trump and Republicans just passed a tax cut that will gift $100B annually to the richest 1%.
$100B could fund SNAP for a year.
It's not a matter of what this country can or can't afford. It's about priorities.
People are starting to understand this.
Maybe white adults should go door to door on Halloween and give children candy. Keep our children safe. Leave them alone Kristi Noem and CBP

Today, Mike Johnson will keep the House adjourned for the 85th day out of the last 97.
12 days of work in over 3 months.

The senate has been working, so this is not about the shutdown.
It is about avoiding a vote to release the Epstein files.
So that Mellon guy who gives away cash from his inheritance doesnβt have any left for SNAP?
