The person charged with enforcing the laws is an open lawbreaker, assisted by a team of open lawbreakers, backed by a Congressional majority indifferent to lawbreaking, supported by a Supreme Court that privileges them to break the law.

It has no legitimacy whatsoever.
The person charged with enforcing the laws is himself a law breaker. In such a state, do laws even have any legitimacy?

A Somali-American woman in Minnesota straps her U.S. passport to her head as she goes about her daily routine, seeking immediate proof of her citizenship. This act stems from the heightened enforcement by ICE and the growing concerns about racial profiling.

Increase in productivity since 1979: 87%

Increase in hourly pay since 1979: 32%

Just so happens that ~25% of workers were unionized in 1979. Today? 10%.

As unions declined, the super-rich have taken a larger share of wealth generated by labor. We must build back union power.

How to help democracy in a simple way:

Peacefully not buying stuff is the safest form of protest imaginable for anyone fearful of retaliation by this regime. U don’t have to risk getting arrested, fired or deported; u don’t even have to wave a placard.

Democrat Eileen Higgins was projected to win the race for Miami mayor over her Trump-endorsed Republican opponent. Higgins will be the first woman to hold the seat.

An Abundance of Popularism 🧐

Still waiting for that NYT masthead editorial about how recent election results decisively indicate that the other party is denying political reality at its peril & is distracted from moderate, unifying solutions 🤔

Trans people aren't taking away our healthcare.

Muslims aren't defunding our schools.

Immigrants aren't cutting taxes for themselves and their rich friends.

We are focused on the wrong 1%.

Evaluating nominees is explicitly his job as a Senator. What "others" can give advice and consent of the senate?
Vote these spineless cowards out of their majorities so we can actually have some oversight on this serial criminality.

I keep saying I do not understand why they do this -- if they wish to catch a drug ring for real they could just follow the boats to their destination and catch both transporters and recipients. It seems this unlawful sequence of attacks is just for MAGA publicity -- and a lousy one at that.

It’s infuriating to me that I need to evaluate media to determine whether it’s AI generated now. The great “time saver” technology wastes incalculable time and energy for people who want to retain their grasp on reality
