This entire weekend
A few years back i was walking with my tween. We approach a group of striking nurses. She got visibly agitated and wanted to turn around. Turns out she’d so internalized the idea of not crossing a picket line, that you shouldn’t even pass one. She was trying to keep her dad from being a rat Good kid
For all the mfers who say workers just serve coffee, just deliver packages, just stock shelves, just clean rooms, just prep food, or just check in guests, remember this, they keep our communities running every day. And when they’re on a picket line, you respect it.

I wanted to commend Alex Padilla for putting it on the line yesterday against Kristi Noem, just as I’d like to commend the politicians in New Jersey standing up to ICE. Similarly, if something happens...

If you ranked this week on the scale of the best to the worst, it sure as hell would be towards the worst, but if you're seeing this, we made it through it.
And together, we're gonna defeat these motherfuckers.
Enjoy tonight's sunset.

The Inspectors General refuse to leave until the action is taken legally, which they do not believe it was, and neither do senators like Chuck Grassley. This is what not backing down looks like.

Smug, beautiful little assholes chose not to spend their youths marinating in clouds of poison now they think they’re better than me?
I was curious and apparently there's an association between smoking and going gray before the age of 30.
I kind of wonder if all of the "millenials look young" tropes is simply millenials smoked less than earlier generations and wore some sunscreen

This is for no one, but there’s a project I recently started that I’ve spent 9 years thinking about. Yesterday I threw it in the trash because it seemed trite and pointless in lieu of (gestures broadly). Today, I pulled it back out because these motherfuckers don’t get to make us stop caring. Thanks

We knocked on record numbers of doors we made record numbers of calls. We sent postcards and texts until the words we wrote made no sense to us. And they didn’t. I REFUSE TO BELIEVE NOTHING MATTERS! AND I WON’T ADMIT DEFEAT UNTIL WE ACTUALLY LOSE! AND THEN WE START THE NEW FIGHT!

MORE OF THIS! We didn’t knock those doors, make those phone calls, send those post cards and texts just crumple when the thing that happens every single time happens and we don’t have the patience to see it through.

As every track athlete knows- you run THROUGH the finish line. And you do not let yourself get distracted by where your opponents are at. You just give the end everything you have.
Yeah, do not get cocky, do not get complacent.

Bidenomics focused on providing direct fiscal transfers to ordinary people & delivering an extremely hot labor market which reallocated more income to labor without disruptive labor actions--& in the process accelerated macroeconomic growth while containing inflation. This is GOAT econ policy
Allow me to once again invite you to consider how, if a Republican were in the White House, our entire National Conversation™️ about the economy, politics, & the election would be about how this is the Sunniest Morning in the History of 🇺🇸 Mornings (charts @ernietedeschi.bsky.social & Jason Furman).

The media has been trying to force Harris into a “deplorable” moment since she got in the race. They are going to wring this for every drop they can get.
Trump insults Democratic voters constantly and frequently explicitly says that American citizens should be deported. The mainstream media that wants Trump to win has been on their back foot and are going to use this to try and right the ship for Trump. All hands on deck moment for them.
hold on, let me clutch my pearls because of this "gaffe" where biden correctly calls the people at trump's nazi rally "garbage"
