In Hessen macht die #NoAfD übrigens Wahlkampf mit dem Plakat:
„Wir halten, was die CDU verspricht.“

Und es verschafft leider null Genugtuung, dazu zu sagen:

Told you so.

this is simultaneously much more than i expected and not nearly enough. IF the Reps abided by this it would make things LESS awful but i just don't see why we'd expect them to abide by any agreement they make once they have cash in hand

ICE at the polls! Bannon is basically yelling “fire” in a crowded theater here. His objective is to cause chaos (and suppress votes on the left). And it’s already working.

This threat works on multiple levels and doesn’t have to be “real” to serve its purpose.

Let me explain & offer some advice.

It feels worth saying that the thing that unifies men as disparate as Noam Chomsky, Deepak Chopra and Trump is patriarchy. Patriarchy, hatred of women, and the need to dominate them, persists across race and class status. Left movements refuse a robust analysis of persisting gender violence.

Stop obsessing about protein and pay attention to fiber and resistant starch.
Nutrition experts say that resistant starch is one of the best things for your gut microbiome.

That’s because it gets converted into compounds that reduce inflammation, lower your risk of chronic diseases and more.
Why this nutrient is great for your gut health
Resistant starch helps protect against chronic diseases and has other health benefits. Here are foods you can eat to get more of it every day.

As I said in every single letter and email I sent to your office, this isn’t good enough. “Reining them in” isn’t feasible when they already flagrantly break every law of the country. Abolish ICE.

INBOX: @sbworkersunited.org is escalating its rolling strike by calling on supporters to delete the firm's popular app off their phones until it agrees to a contract. It's an ambitious move that will test the depth of popular support, given how much value users have tied up there in rewards points.

A former Amazon warehouse in Hutchins, Texas, was reportedly bought by ICE.

The building is 1 million square feet and would imprison nearly 10,000 people.

The facility underwent $500,000 in renovations at the end of last year for undisclosed reasons.
Is this former Texas Amazon warehouse becoming an ICE detention center?

Germany's CDU wants to scrap the legal right to part-time work 😬

They're also pushing to replace the 8-hour daily limit with weekly caps, and unions warn this could mean 13-hour shifts for hospitality employees. It's a war on workers.
