Proud Democrat (but don't think they're perfect). I believe our democracy is worth fighting for. If we win that fight let's start working to fix the system!

Increase in productivity since 1979: 87%
Increase in hourly pay since 1979: 32%
Just so happens that ~25% of workers were unionized in 1979. Today? 10%.
As unions declined, the super-rich have taken a larger share of wealth generated by labor. We must build back union power.

My family has agreed to forgo exchanging holiday gifts with adults. Instead, we will be donating that money to a local food bank or our charity of choice. Let's support our community, not greedy corporations.

This was a political cartoon during the Gilded Age. It remains pertinent to today. If you can’t see the similarity you aren’t paying attention.

Someday there will be a reckoning for the serial killings that the US government is engaged in on the oceans. Another admin should not refuse to extradite indicted officials to Intl Criminal Courts and senior military officers “just following orders” should not be exempted.

As a survivor of sexual abuse, this is a reminder that it isnt a side distraction.
It's a substantive issue with real world victims & its incredibly important to millions.
Abuse is so common. We all know victims.

Tesson Ferry/Lemay Dems made 90 PB&J sandwiches + 120 PB&J sack lunches for our local unhoused/food insecure residents. Great job by all these volunteers/donors! (It was great to see so many kids there!) The coming MAGA republican cuts to benefits will definitely increase the need here in Missouri!

But thanks to Trump's inflation and tariff hikes, families are drowning in supply costs.
