Rich pundits paid by billionaires whose yachts have yachts are telling you with a straight face that there’s no way to afford some free city buses to take the poors to their jobs cleaning the yachts.

If Biden’s cancer is in his bones, then his people have known about it for a long time. He’s not like us, he gets lots of preventative care. They probably knew before he decided to run for reelection.

I guess it’s not surprising that Trump was able to break everything in three months. It’s always easier to break stuff than to keep it running.

Has anyone ever gotten a job with @linkedin.com? Because so far it’s only led to scam emails and wasted time.

The job market is really bad folks. I got downsized after seven years and the only responses I can get from anybody is the occasional email from an obvious scam account.

It is a foregone conclusion that we will have universal healthcare in this country because every other system is simply unsustainable.
How soon that day comes depends on what we decide to do with our days.

When a company’s stock rises, the executives get bonuses.
When a company’s stock plummets, workers see layoffs.
It’s why people were outraged when Biden said the economy was “booming” while Americans couldn’t afford groceries.
It’s why people are worried as stocks plunge now.

With these tariffs causing the market to crash, we’re about to see just how irresponsible and dangerous it is that healthcare is tied to employment.
It’s always been bad, but mass layoffs would mean the healthcare crisis worsens exponentially.
That and student debt.

A study found $79 trillion was taken from the bottom 90% over the last half century.
There's no lack of abundance. The abundance is being hoarded by the rich.
But Abundance won't say that because its goal is to distract from oligarch-created scarcity - and deter Democratic populism.

“Abundance” Is How Dems Lose To Trump

DEI didn’t do this.
The “radical left” didn’t do this.
The LGBTQIA+ community didn’t do this.
The GOP is saying “look over here” while they make decisions that will ultimately enrich the billionaire class and further hurt the people.

Nina actually talks to people. Between that and her experience as a state senator, she’s a much better source of information than corporate consultants. #TooStrong
I spoke with some people on the ground in WI who expressed frustration that the focus turned to Musk and not things that people were voting FOR with their vote for Judge Crawford.
They voted for things like collective bargaining rights, fair maps, bodily autonomy, etc.
I say things intentionally.

It was a win for Democrats, Nina. It was a win. Take the win. Team players don’t what the Dem party did to fight back against Elon and Trump. They celebrate the common ground that united them to, frankly, oppose EVIL — and win.

I guess that settles it. Corey Booker was just promoting himself for 2028, and Democrats have no intention of getting off the couch. Remember to vote against all of these people in Democratic primaries.
