Chicago Mayor Issues Defiant Call For A General Strike
It was an audacious proposal, given that the U.S. has never held a true, nationwide general strike.

Expiration of the ACA tax credits will hike out-of-pocket premiums 75% for nearly 20 million Americans.

Our healthcare is unaffordable. We need to pass Medicare for all and expand quality affordable care to all Americans.

This administration has initiated the largest assault on free speech in modern history.

I just motioned to subpoena FCC Director Brendan Carr to stop the intimidation of private businesses and assault on free speech.

Congress must wake up from our slumber, assert our power and do our job.

“I’m running for Congress because Washington doesn’t give a damn about working people, and it’s time for that to change,”

PA-07 is ranked TOSS-UP by @cookpolitical.com

That Trump and Trumpism are fascist doesn’t explain the sheer vandalism of unleashing mass murdering mayhem via RFK to replace medical/scientific institutions of immense value and prestige with medieval peasant superstitions. That is a criminal madness facilitated by but above and beyond fascism.

I want to know if the President of the United States is a pedophile. And I know the American people do too.

I'm shocked that Republicans would rather shut down Congress than stand up to a dead pedophile.

So why not release the files?

Several masked and armed ICE goons raided the Super Gigante West Norriton Farmers Market in southeastern Pennsylvania, detaining both employees and shoppers at the store. One witness shouted, "This is disgusting...
These are hardworking people... You're separating families."

Reddit’s r/Conservative is turning on Trump over Epstein.

“The only bad actors I see in this are the ones in the White House”.

“This will make me turn my back on Trump”.

“Maybe the democrats are right. We ARE in the oligarchy”.

Trump’s finally lost control of the narrative—keep pushing on this!
Conservative user posts: “Does he think everyone is just incredibly stupid?He, his sons, his admin literally were all making promises about, attacking Democrats on, and generally talking up "releasing the Epstein files" and "putting people to justice" as huge points of the campaign. And now he's acting like this is all a hoax and that it's only being pushed by bad actors. Get out with that. Right now, the only bad actors I see in this are the ones in the White House”. 381 upvotes Goldwater Conservative user posts: “So those of us who want the release of the names of people responsible for the abuse of children are the dummies now? Bondi even sent a letter to Kash where she specifically mentioned the list and now it's a hoax??? Do they really expect us to believe this?” 338 upvotes Christian Conservative user posts: “This is the type of legislation decision making that will make me turn my back on Trump.” 790 upvotes Conservative user posts: “I don't care if f*cking mother Theresa is on that client list, release it and hold every single one of them responsible. Tired of this shit. EDIT: to all the leftists flooding my inbox asking me "what if your orange idol is on the list!?" Then F*CK him too! He's not on the list, but if he is, then he can burn in hell with the rest of whoever is on the list.” 2,784 upvotes Burkian Conservative response to “he’s not on the list”: “No matter how you feel about Trump, don't make assumptions. At this point either he's on the list or he's running interference for those who are. Either way, this is not good” 368 upvotes Conservative user posts. “Reddit, I think we can all agree--and that includes the other political subs as well--that we need to scream incessantly and annoyingly until Congress releases them, if only to shut us up.” 4,428 upvotes MAGA Conservative user posts: “People like Charlie Kirk who I used to trust are clearly just repeating whatever the administration are telling them, rather than holding people's feet to the fire.” 2,879 upvotes Don’t Tread on Me Conservative responds: “Anybody supporting this administrations take on Epstein is a part of the problem and not a credible source.” 1,192 upvotes MAGA and MAHA! Conservative responds: “I couldn't believe my ears when he said "I trust my friends in the administration" He spent all these years advocating for "Keep the government small, because you cannot trust them", only to now do a sudden 180 and say the exact same rhetoric as the left: "Guys, the government is your friend, they only do what's in your best interest. Don't question them. Just agree with whatever they tell you" Maybe the democrats are right. We ARE in the oligarchy.” 581 upvotes Appalachian Conservative posts: “How did we go from the administration saying "The list is sitting on my desk" to "There is no list"?” 2,003 upvotes Conservative responds: “Because they won the election and now don't have to answer to voters” 605 upvotes Conservative posts: “As constituents, we can't ever let this go. The list must be made public. Those who had any part in hurting children must be held accountable. My state has 2 democrat senators, but I can promise you if I lived in a state with republican senators that voted against releasing the list they'd never get my vote again.” 217 upvotes Christian Nationalist posts: “Not a good look for republicans that I will say.” 3,490 upvotes

Public radio saves lives. Period.

Last year alone, PBS transmitted 11,000+ emergency alerts — floods, fires, tornadoes, evacuations. Cutting its funding means silencing the alarms.

This isn’t politics — it’s public safety.

They have tried. But there aren’t enough users to get them to switch, or even post regularly here.

I didn’t use Twitter because it was full of worthwhile discussions; the comment section has always been awful compared to Reddit.

I used it because it served me timely posts from smart, connected people. BlueSky hasn’t brought those people over.

I want an alternative to Twitter to survive and thrive I think it’s important for BS to grow as a way to offset or diminish the cultural and political impact that Twitter has.

This is why I care.
