So, some may not agree with me, but every single member of the Democratic leadership, every single one, especially those who backed Cuomo for the mayoral race in New York need to be voted out, primaried. I’m so sick of hearing from Schumer and Jefferies. They are absolutely useless.

Capitol Police repeatedly used lethal force on protesters early on Jan. 6, video shows | Blaze Media
Use of powerful kinetic projectiles to strike protesters in the head, face, and neck was ‘criminally negligent,’ a use-of-force expert said.

So that’s the problem that’s why we’re here because bipartisan Caucasian America in order to keep its privilege from inception to now has largely remained quiet. The loud is because the holes dug are now trapping you. That’s the fucking truth.

If you all would have included truthful Black History as part of American History, you wouldn't be so "shocked" by what is happening right now. In fact, what is happening now likely wouldn't be happening because you would have been able to see it coming with knowledge of history.

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.

This is your mid-week reminder that tax cuts for corporations don't create jobs.
You see, what actually happens when corporations get tax cuts, is that they spend the money they save enriching their shareholders with stock buybacks and dividend payments.

Folks can argue about the relevancy of the “Democratic socialist” label all day. But if that’s what you’re hung up on, you’re missing the larger point.
People aren’t chasing labels. They’re chasing change. Real, structural, unapologetic change.
