Congresswoman @ayannapressley.bsky.social is right on the money. What's happening to Black women should not and cannot be ignored.
P.S. You might spot a familiar face in the background. 😉

The rising unemployment rate among Black women is a five-alarm fire.
It is a crisis for Black women, Black families, and Black futures—and a glaring red flag for our economy.

Folks, two things can true at the same time.
These 2 National Guard members should not have been shot, and it's a disgusting act of violence. And, Trump + Miller have deliberately deployed them to incite division { violence. That's part of Miller's plan. They have no reason to be in our cities.

National Guard members should never have been deployed in Washington, DC.

I'm tired of responding to bad-faith MAGA outrage, which always distracts corporate media, centrists, & those who feel they must indulge their temper tantrums.
They're blaming all of us now for the National Guard shooting.
Just say:
"Fuck Off, Release the Epstein Files, and Happy Thanksgiving."

Kristi Noem is guilty of crimes against humanity and needs to face justice.
📌 She made the final call to defy a court order to halt deportation flights, sending people into the hellscape of CECOT, a place the UN has compared to a torture chamber.
Prosecute her and everyone involved.

What is the point of a government by the people, for the people, if said government refuses to ensure even the most basic human needs - food, clothing, shelter, etc, are met for each and every citizen of that country.
People need food. Market won’t provide it. The government can. The government should.
People needing food does not necessarily imply government run grocery stores. Just as it does not imply government owned bakeries or millers or wheat fields.
Direct cash transfers are strong as a policy but not politically palatable.

Marjorie Taylor Greene's resigning in time to get a pension is a lesson to everyone.
Most Americans don't get *any* pension anymore, but Congress gave itself a pension after only five years of work.
Our "representatives" aren't working for us, they are [barely] working for themselves.

The phrasing of the last line is brilliant.
