I don't recommend the Catch Up feed unless you wanna be depressed at US politics.

An estimated 15.7 million workers use SNAP. It’s a lifeline for those in low-wage jobs.

Meanwhile, CEOs are paid 280x as much as the typical worker.

Don’t be angry at workers for using food stamps.

Be angry at the corporations paying them so little that they need them.

REV. BLACK (who was shot in the head with a pepper ball): “If this is what they’re doing to pastors, journalists, teachers, mothers, and the elderly gathered to sing and pray outside ICE facilities… what might they be doing to our neighbors who are behind those walls?”

I voted YES on Prop 50 because we cannot let anyone silence the will of the people.

California is fighting fire with fire and standing up for democracy everywhere. Vote yes on Prop 50 by mail or in person on Election Day, this Tuesday, November 4.

California – this Election Day, vote yes on Prop 50.

California’s Prop 50 says that if Republicans are going to abuse the system to try and hang onto power, we’re going to counteract that abuse and create a level playing field in the midterm elections.

Make a plan to vote yes on Prop 50.

Pritzker: "Imagine it. Children who woke up that morning, expectant with joy & excitement to put on their costumes & celebrate with their neighbors in what they thought was a safe place at their homes. Armed, masked agents, terrorizing innocent people, especially children, is unconscionable."

I'd just like to point out how weird it is that places with hundreds or even thousands of reporters — the NYT, WaPo, CBS, NBC, AP, etc. — are all getting pummeled on every major story by the dozen computerboys at Wired. To fumble the bag this consistently is, at some point, cowardice and a choice.

NEW: Metadata from the “raw” Epstein prison video shows approximately 2 minutes and 53 seconds were removed from one of two stitched-together clips. The cut starts right at the “missing minute.”

We need a new generation of leaders who are the voices of democracy, freedom, social justice, & the rule of law. 

A new generation that gives meaning to the “we” in “we the people.”

Instead of fretting over Zohran Mamdani, the Democratic Party should embrace him as the future.

"While the wildfires were raging in California, Ben and Ted Cruz had a podcast where they just attacked Governor Newsom and Karen Bass—that was while the fires were still raging. So spare us the grandstanding and virtue signaling about how this stuff shouldn't be partisan."

“If ICE was a military, it would have the 16th biggest budget in the world. You wanna talk about America First? Think about all the things we could do in this country, like giving a [hurricane] warning system to these folks in rural Texas, instead of plucking brown people out of their homes.”

A reminder that Brazil arrested and charged their former dictator Bolsonaro with planning a coup and trying to overturn the 2022 elections in their country.

If only the United States had done the same instead of giving the plotter of a coup full totalitarian power of the govt.

The first time Charlie Chaplin used his voice in a film, he wielded it to forcefully condemn the rising forces of fascism around the globe.

Will we listen to his words today?

We shouldn't need a Black Women’s Equal Pay Day, but here we are. Still underpaid. Still undervalued.

66 cents on the dollar means we lose thousands every year, for doing the same job.

Over a lifetime? That’s hundreds of thousands gone.

Pay Black women. Period.

I lost my dad on Father’s Day 2019. Doesn’t matter how long the time goes by, it’s never any easier for me.

I’m grateful for the gift of my wonderful father. He was the best of us.

Happy Father’s Day to you amazing dads, father figures, and folks who are stepping up in all of the ways. ♥️

People will tell you that they view property destruction as equivalent to violence against a person, but that's not true. They think property destruction is worse
