Maria Bartiromo claims Americans being able to afford healthcare is "small potatoes" compared to Trump's dealings with Israel and Hamas.

What happened to America first?

As APALA's founding president & a leader throughout our movement, he relentlessly fought for worker, immigrant, civil & human rights across the country & around the world. He inspired us all.

Rest in power.

Miller fucked up by using the term. He froze. Pretty telling reaction of petrified horror at actual transparency that slipped out from his lips beyond his casual racism and authoritarian tendencies. This was an UNFORCED ERROR.

This is nothing more than a continuation of the president’s desperate weaponization of our justice system.

I am not fearful — I am fearless.

We will fight these baseless charges aggressively, and my office will continue to fiercely protect New Yorkers and their rights..

As a mentor to nurses in the WHO, war zones are so clearly war zones that internet connectivity, personal safety and the NOISE of a broken city are etched in your mind. War zones ARE NOT SUBTLE or NUANCED! MAGA are not deep thinkers.

All of us must demand universal childcare because it destroys the K-12 to jail pipeline for so many kids. Did you know pre-K school attendance is one of the most common predictive factors for college attendance? More than mother’s education level. MAKE THE WORLD A BETTER PLACE! Destroy poverty!

New Mexico decided to go universal with their free childcare and I hope more states follow suit, not just with childcare, but with cash like Alaska, and with free school meals like Minnesota. Universalism is the way to go in policy design for many, if not most, policies. Taxes can achieve targeting.
New Mexico is the 1st state with universal childcare and more states should embrace universal policy

A graphic with a dark background and a photo of Rep. Maxwell Frost . The text in white and yellow font says, "The reason the government has been shut down is because Donald Trump and congressional Republicans would rather shut down the government than ensure that working people have healthcare."

Ireland has approved plans to permanently implement a basic income program that will support up to 2,200 artists.

A cost-benefit analysis found that for every €1 invested, society receives €1.39 back.

Officials from other countries are now expressing interest in the program.
