Friends, I sqw a meme once that basically said "they aren't asking their [rich] kids to skip college for the trades, they're asking yours" and I can't find it now. Does anyone have it??

The hardest part of getting involved in local politics and serving in office is facing the very friendly, kind people (women) that I genuinely get along with just fine and knowing how they voted. Knowing what their (usually male) relatives say on social media against our social programs...

New: A 2006 study found undocumented immigrants contributed more to Texas than they cost the state. The state hasn’t updated the analysis since.

But a series of reports released by nonprofits and universities since then have reached similar conclusions.

A 2006 study found undocumented immigrants contribute more than they cost Texas. The state hasn’t updated it since.
A comptroller’s report found that deporting the estimated 1.4 million undocumented immigrants living in Texas in 2005 would have cost the state about $17.7 billion in gross domestic product.

A) solid point in the original post
B) what a perfect graphic to show why we're hearing "but what about the traaades?" every time a kid brings up attending college
C) also why college loans are predatory
PONDER THIS…

Have you ever noticed that when shit goes down, people demand that minorities be held responsible for their entire ethnic group? White folks are exempt from that demand.

When a Black person does something bad, the entire Black community must answer for it. Why is that?

Friendly reminder that local office, or even local involvement, does indeed make a huge difference.
31 days in December, 31 ways to resist:

#1: 31 states have local/state elections starting in February. Get involved or even run.

If your state is one of those states, chime in below.

If anyone's keeping tabs on the Amazon strike. From what I could find, the unions are NOT asking for a shopping boycott.
Boycotting during a strike means there's less pressure of unfilled orders on the company tho. Unfilled orders pressures the company to give in to worker demands. That's why it's important to know what the workers are asking for.

Novel-length by bluesky standards, but good/scary read. Original linked youtube video at the end of it.
1/ 🚨 Conspiracy theories about the 2024 election miss the bigger picture.

The truth? It wasn’t one night, one hack, or one fraud. It was a system rigged in plain sight – right in front of us. The playbook was out in the open for years. But hardly anyone paid attention.

Here’s how they did it... 🧵

Last year, when I was at MSNBC, I did a 10-minute deep-dive into RFK Jr's anti-vaxxer role in the measles outbreak that killed dozens and dozens of kids in Samoa.

I hope every Senator voting in his confirmation process for HHS knows about this crucial and awful story:
