What if we had spaces where we get to ask less of ourselves? Where can we drop the demands, drop the pushing, and just be? Read Emil's new blog post: forge.tips/strength-training

Trump should obviously be impeached. Either he has lost control, or he is using his power to do obviously illegal things.

Representation without taxation for a handful of billionaires, taxation without representation for the rest of us.

So the world's richest man spends a fortune backing Trump and is given the go-ahead to...

-Run an "efficiency" agency despite having billions in govt contracts

-Replace civil servants with his own cronies

-Gain access to sensitive Treasury payment systems

See the problem?

Republicans stand behind this as civil service, how they represent the people is through censorhip, removal of information and controlled messaging.

Sure, call that freedom!

Fascism isn't defined by how many people voted for it; it's defined by the actions taken by those in power. The actions this administration has taken are fascist by any definition of the word, but I go with Carl Cohen's, which you can read about here. michaelianblack.substack.com/p/dropping-t...

Native women working full-time, year-round are paid 59 cents for every dollar paid to non-Hispanic white men.

Every worker deserves equal pay for equal work.

Do you know how much CEO pay has skyrocketed since 1978?

100%? 500%?

Try 1,085%

Meanwhile, the $7.25/hr fed. minimum wage hasn't budged in 15 years and the tipped min. wage has been $2.13/hr since 1991.

This is what I mean when I say the system is rigged.

For the @nytimes.com I wrote about how Enough is Enough with the incumbent president and his cabinet of folly and let’s stop coddling Trump voters and be real clear-eyed about what lies ahead. www.nytimes.com/2024/11/17/o...

To suggest we should yield even a little to Trump’s odious politics is unacceptable. Even if we did, it would never be enough.
