I have always been a small account but I am grateful for all who have followed! As a boomer, what I am seeing now breaks my heart. We have to form strong bonds to survive the crap that is coming.

Rest in peace, brave Lady. ❤️
As a survivor of the Tulsa Race Massacre, Viola Ford Fletcher bravely shared her story so that we’d never forget this painful part of our history. Michelle and I are grateful for her lifelong work to advance civil rights, and send our love to her family.

KYUK is the only public radio station in remote Alaska that regularly broadcasts in the Yugtun language, providing a crucial lifeline to Indigenous communities in the area.
After Congress slashed its budget, the station isn't sure how it'll survive.

In remote Alaska, public radio station KYUK is crucial during natural disasters. Without federal funding, how will it survive?

As of this morning, Starbucks workers across the country are officially ON STRIKE. And we're prepared for this to become the biggest and longest ULP strike in Starbucks history.
Say #NoContractNoCoffee with us: DON'T BUY STARBUCKS for the duration of our open-ended ULP strike! $SBUX

The math:
North Carolina had nearly 8 million registered voters last fall.
More than 2 million didn’t vote.
Trump won NC by less than 200,000 votes.
If just 1 out of every 11 registered voters in NC who didn’t vote had voted for Harris instead of staying home, she would have won NC.

Why do I say this?
Well, first of all, Trump would not even be President if just 1 out of every 11 registered voters in North Carolina who didn't vote along with 1 out of 17 registered voters in Georgia and Pennsylvania had voted for Harris instead of staying home.

Undocumented immigrants contributed approximately $25.7B to Social Security and $6.4B to Medicare, but they remain ineligible to claim these benefits. Removing them from the workforce will further erode social security benefits. They are the only ones that create a net positive for the system. 🔄

I'm not mad that Senate Democrats offered to end the shutdown. It would have gotten a 1 year extension to the ACA credits and now the Republicans have refused to reopen the government.

Let me get this straight. So tRump and his underlings are accusing people on boats of a crime that doesn't carry the death penalty. Then they are killing the people and blowing up the evidence.
Is that about right?
