Finland ended homelessness with a housing first strategy that gave people apartments before they secured employment

Now they’re proposing a 4 day work week and 6 hour work days

True work life balance

Meanwhile in the US, people work two jobs and can’t afford food or healthcare.

What I always hear: “We can’t afford to pay our workers more than $15 an hour.”

What I never hear: “We can’t afford to pay our CEO millions of dollars a year.”

Funny how that works.

There are so many holes in DHS’s story it’s nuts. They say this woman was driving her boyfriend’s car, who they claim is undocumented.

ICE pulls her over, see she’s alone, know they are looking for a man, and still handcuff her while she screams “I am a US citizen,”.

Why is ICE harassing women?

My constituent, Wilmer, was mauled by an ICE attack dog despite the fact that, as he has consistently explained, he was not resisting arrest or trying to flee—his wife and young children, all U.S. citizens, were forced to watch helplessly as Wilmer was violently attacked and dragged away.

ICE arrested a food vendor. Then one ICE officer went back and stole his cash box.
Someone posted this to see if the license plate could be made.

Gavin Newsom lit into an audience full of financial power brokers today, criticizing what he cast as their complicity with Trump’s agenda. He told attendees of the New York Times DealBook Summit that they should look into the kneepads he’s selling, in parody, to those “groveling to Trump’s needs.”
'Some of you are probably fine with it’: Newsom confronts business elite on Trump
The California governor used financial power brokers as a foil during an interview in New York City.

ATTN GOVERNMENT EMPLOYEES: The VA sent out an announcement with a link for employees to self-report their disabilities. I wouldn’t do this if I were you. They’ll likely use it to discriminate against you.

JUST IN: Mike Johnson plans to swear in Rep.-elect Matt Van Epps on Thursday — less than two days after he won the TN-07 special election.

As a reminder, it took Johnson 50 days to swear in Democratic Rep. Adelita Grijalva.

The Republican Party is an active crime scene. You have Epstein files redacting Trumps name. ICE terrorist attacking American citizens. Trump pardoning the worst criminals. Shooting survivors in the ocean.
This President is a terrorist and every Republican who stay silent are accessory to the crime

The brightest potential can only unfold in the absence of self-critical, self-threatening thoughts.

Self-scaremongering, self-shaming, or self-bullying are mental tools that only disturb your best version.

So stop. Be compassionate. Let the being be.

Devastating. Trump admin selling off historic public art to the highest bidder. "It is a tragic irony that murals meant to represent the contract between the government and its citizens would be sold to the highest bidder rather than preserved for posterity." www.alternet.org/trump-destro...
Trump admin selling off historic public art to the highest bidder
Painted figures haunt an empty building. A boy leaning on a pair of crutches. A father and son wandering a barren railroad track. A nuclear family at a picnic table. These poignant scenes were painted...

If blowing up survivors in the water was the right thing to do because they are “narco-terrorists” (trust us, bro) and deserve no quarter, why did we rescue two other survivors in a different strike, fly them home, and let them go free?
