KAMALA HARRIS DID TALK ABOUT AFFORDABILITY.

SHE HAD DETAILED PLANS.

SHE MADE MAJOR SPEECHES AND EXPLAINED HER PLANS *IN DETAIL*.

YOU WERE NOT LISTENING.

So please just stop with the "Kamala didn't do this or that."

She lost by *1.5 points nationwide*. Margin of error. NO LANDSLIDE.

Just STOP!

The ACA made my whole self-employed life possible. For almost ten years, I was able to build a career that actually worked for me AND keep receiving necessary care to address the consequences of childhood medical neglect. And I still deserved better. We all do.

I couldn’t be more delighted by the outcome of last week’s election and the increased presence of left-leaning women in our state government leadership. Actually… I can imagine being more delighted if we see similar results in the federal midterms next year, male or female 💙🌊💙

Heartless, soulless, and brainless.
1/ The US Government has quietly removed a memorial to Black soldiers who died in World War II from the Netherlands American Cemetery in Margraten, South Limburg. The move follows a complaint from the right-wing Heritage Foundation to the American Battle Monuments Commission. ⬇️

$$$$$$$$$$$

Anyone who is a billionaire makes obscene amounts of money while paying the workers (who make that possible) far less than what their labor is worth.

Share the wealth, people. Pay workers more. Pay your fair share of taxes.

You are not inherently better than your lowest-paid employee.

They have been trying to kill Obamacare ever since it started--back when Obama was president.

Two election cycles later, almost 10 years..

THEY'VE GOT NOTHING,

BUT

STILL want to kill the ACA (Obamacare)

HOW does it benefit them to have no healthcare for people?

One man, so much mayhem.

A certain CEO gets a raise to $1T after

Stock price falls
People boycott and picket products
CEO moonlights and ruins US govt
CEO's personal life and Cybertruck are national embarrassments

Wonder why people are not so down with the current flavor of CAPITALISM?

To us, it looks like a cruel joke

Say it isn’t so! We’re not welcome in states with the lowest ranks in education and life expectancy. And the highest ranks in maternal mortality and crime. So unfair!

Without people of color, Spanberger, Shirrill, Mamdani and others wouldn't win with their huge margins.

Just look at the cross tabs.

It was "the woke" who got it done.

Majority of white voters didnt go for them.
