VOTE JASMINE HARRIS FOR MAYOR in the April 1st Omaha, NE Primary Election

Jasmine is the only candidate with a serious position on Public Transit in Omaha. While other candidates bicker about stopping a streetcar already being built, Jasmine is talking about Light Rail & a Commuter Train to Lincoln

There’s around 1,000 people here and growing. Hard to hear speakers without amplification, but crowd is very enthusiastic.

FYI you can just take these down by yourself: they are placed illegally under Omaha Municipal Code and are literally garbage. Clean up your neighborhood and help make flipping homes less profitable by taking these down and repurposing or recycling the materials!

The Democrats don't want to use power, they just want to endlessly critique it.

If they wanted to actually do something, they'd introduce legislation to end the split-vote system & promise all 5 of NE's Electoral College votes to the winner of the National Popular Vote. πŸ€·β€β™‚οΈ

Never interacted with Dave at all on this site before today, finally decided to share something he wrote and... he immediately blocked me. Such a disappointment.

State Senator John Cavanaugh's Campaign Manager and Staffer Dave Sund has me blocked on all social media. I've never been rude or profane to him or John but they simply don't care to hear the complaints of working class people. They don't care about what working people think at all.

Bessent: approved 68-29

Rubio: approved 99-0

Sean Duffy: 77-22

Even puppy murderer Kristi Noem got 59 votes for, only 34 against

John Ratcliffe: approved 74-25

The only person that didn't get Dem support was Pete Hegseth

Democrats love to perform resistance. Where was this energy when Biden was deporting more people than Trump? They'll completely ignore their role in paving the way for Trump's reelection and then turn around and act like they know what to do now to resist it. The call is coming from inside the house

Democrats in Congress have literally spent the last several weeks cooperating and voting en masse to confirm most of Trump's appointments. Liberals have a storied tradition of compromising before they need to, as well as lambasting progressives who choose to "throw sand in the gears".

It is illegal for landlords to do this. And it's evil. And it shows why housing should not be a for-profit industry.

It's time for Class War in 2025 New Year, a new chapter in the struggle, and a few resources

It's easy to despair. 2024 was a tough year, and 2025 will be tough too. But last year ended with historic Amazon, Starbucks, and rent strikes. These get less attention than elections, but this wave of class warfare has the potential to change history.
