When and if sane and honest people ever again control the U.S. government, one of the first things they should do is enact a tax on large accumulations of wealth. https://robertreich.substack.com/p/if-the-market-were-working-well-we

Omg this Mariners vs Blue Jays game 😬😬😬 Though tbh nothing would be more ironic in 2025 with all the terrible things in America than the only Canadian team in baseball winning America's World Series...

This was definitely not a "Hate America" rally. From all I've seen, it is anything but hate. Love for neighbors, for immigrants, for LGBTQ+. Love for freedom, for the USA, for the flag, for protected free speech/protest. Dance parties and costumes and smiles and creative signs. ❤️🚫👑

So, does congress not receive a salary either during a shut down? If not, they should; a shut down is serious and they should treat it as such and get the govt open ASAP. Shame on the GOP; this is all their fault.

As a former Texas State Rep, let me be clear: LOCKING Rep. Nicole Collier inside the chamber is beyond outrageous.
Forcing elected officials to sign “permission slips” & take police escorts to leave? That’s not procedure. That’s some old Jim Crow playbook.

I'm so sad to hear the news of Colbert being canceled, and so mad at CBS/Paramount+ for selling out and bending the knee to this corrupt administration. I watch his show nearly every night and love it! It helped get me and many other people through lockdown. Remember Quarantinewhile? 🥺😭💔

They literally have no idea. Or they do and cruelty is the point. Some states still have a $7.25 min wage. At $7.25/hr x 2080hrs/yr that comes out to a grand total of ~$15k a year. Can't afford insurance on that, despite working 40 hrs/week at the store or whatever.

As a lifelong West Coast resident and National Parks lover, I am deeply concerned about the potential selling off/destruction/privatization of our beautiful public lands. 🌲🌳🌿🌵🌴

Whenever I see stuff like this, I remember the Infrastructure Act and how Biden disproportionately invested in red states and when asked why, he said “Because they need it the most.” So no, don’t forget what Biden did. He governed for everyone, even the ones who’d never thank him

After yesterday's horrific incident with Senator Padilla, I rewatched Andor S2E9, where Senator Mothma gives the awesome speech in front of the Senate. Stay strong, Senators. 💜

Can we please have term limits for everyone in Congress? And age limits? 65 sounds good. (Since we have age minimums...) However, if we got rid of anyone over 65, we'd be down 48 members in Senate and even more in the House. Let GenX & Millennials & GenZ grow their political careers please.

I miss Target 😭 I enthusiastically shopped at Target for years, ever since I was a child & it was my go-to back-to-school store. Now, I am currently boycotting Target, because of its actions regarding DEI. They lost a lifelong loyal customer in one day. 💔
