It was great to talk today with UFCW Local 7 in CO who recently ended a 12-day strike involving 10,000 King Soopers workers. Kroger: it’s time to do what’s right. Negotiate a fair contract with your workers. Stop ripping off consumers with high prices at your grocery stores.

Trump berates Zelensky, the leader of a democratic country courageously fighting Russian imperialism, while he allies himself with Putin, a dictator who started the bloodiest European war in 80 years.

Sorry, President Trump. We believe in democracy, not authoritarianism.

If Republicans make massive cuts to Medicaid, it will impact all aspects of our health care system. Millions of kids will lose coverage, hospital and insurance rates will soar and nursing homes will shut down.

All this in order to give huge tax breaks to billionaires. 

NO CUTS TO MEDICAID.

Trump now backs dictatorship, not democracy. We cannot allow that to stand.

Latest book haul. In my house, we don’t call it CRT. We call it history, and we learn about the things that define us as people.

So I've been seeing a decent amount of posts from librarians in here. I read a crazy amount, but today, I finally went out and got a library card for the first time in decades, so thank you for the gentle nudge!

“We’ve been duped for over 2 decades into believing that what we get online is unfettered truth or unfettered access to information when in fact what we’ve been getting is what power always wants, which is to reproduce itself and to increase its hold over the people.” 👏🏼 @maryannefranks.bsky.social
