"Job creators"?

"Alberta’s oil and gas industry cut about 10,000 jobs last year, but economists say something surprising about the loss — it may not be a terrible thing.

Nearly one thousand healthcare workers turned out to honor Alex Pretti yesterday at the Minneapolis VA Medical Center (see link in comments). Healthcare workers know self-sacrificing goodness when they see it. Pretti was raised Catholic, as I describe here: edeninexile.substack.com/p/alex-prett...

The President of the United States is openly threatening to 'nationalize' elections, and it's no mistake he intentionally targeted Detroit.

In Michigan, we've led the nation in expanding access to and securing our right to vote. And we won't stop now.

I could not be more proud of all the U.S. athletes at the Olympics using their platforms to speak out against the hatred and violence of the Trump regime. We have a Team USA giving us pride in a moment our government is causing us so much pain and embarrassment.

I remember when my mom, who’s in her 70s, and I heard Kamala Harris announce her care-at-home plan. We were so excited. She even explained it was cheaper than hospital care. To us, it felt like someone was actually planning to make healthcare better.

Now look where we are.
