According to a new study, members of Congressional leadership perform 47% better in stock market trades than their rank-and-file peers, thanks to access to nonpublic information.

Today would be a great day to ban ALL elected officials from trading stock, don't you think?

I stand with unionized Starbucks workers, who are on strike across the country right now for better wages and working conditions.

Until Starbucks strikes a fair bargain with its workers and ceases its union-busting behavior, I'll continue to boycott the company.

Trump now profits from 22 foreign developments, several tied to gov land or state-linked partners. That gives foreign officials leverage over him. Our assessment warns when executive decisions overlap with private revenue streams, democratic checks weaken.

Starbucks’ CEO makes 6,666x what the average @sbworkersunited.org barista does. It would take less than one day of sales to finalize a fair contract.

Baristas at Starbucks corporate stores nationwide are on strike to fight this corporate greed and get the fair contract they deserve.

TO THE ATTENTION OF THE MAGPIE OUTSIDE MY WINDOW:

Dear sir,

As a bird, it must be hilarious to make a dog lose his mind every day, at the same time, with nothing more than your beak.

However, some of us live *inside* the house with him.

Sincerely,

We don’t have to rely on the federal government to advance a progressive agenda. Several states are taking up the baton. Here's just one example you should know about. https://robertreich.substack.com/p/a-wealth-tax-that-works

Why is @governor.ny.gov surrendering to Trump and taking away our healthcare? If she really wants to protect New Yorkers, she'd #taxtherich so every New Yorker can see a doctor without going broke. It's really that simple...and popular.

As Dems seek to counter new GOP gerrymanders, too many media accounts offer just piecemeal coverage of a handful of states, and few explore all the nuances.

We're here to fix that. Our new report covers *every* blue state (and a few purple ones) and explains *every* way Dems can fight back.

Somehow, some time, I hope to see this motto made part of the new papal regalia.

:“I am an American, Chicago born"

Or, perhaps (my rough-and-ready guess):
"Americanus sum, Chicagi natus."
