When Trump called a female reporter “QUIET, PIGGY,” every man in that cabin who sat there in silence didn’t just miss a moment they became part of the machinery that enables this garbage.
Their silence wasn’t neutrality.
It was permission.

I’m at the grocery store and a lady was really letting the produce guy have it. The guy just holds his arms out and walks away. I say to her, “You know that man is deaf.” She says, I know that! But who’s gonna buy cauliflower that looks like this?”

One good thing coming out of the shutdown is that the Republicans are showing all voters exactly who they are: the party happy to deny food to the poor as a weapon in order to deny them healthcare later; giving tax breaks to billionaires while blocking the release of a file on our pedophile-in-Chief

Socialism is what they called public power.
Socialism is what they called social security.
Socialism is what they called the growth of free and independent labor organizations.
Socialism is their name for almost anything that helps all the people.
—Harry Truman, 1952

Open enrollment for ACA healthcare plans has started, and enrollees are seeing what their premium costs will be next year.
Without subsidies, one couple will see their monthly costs increase from $495 to $2,168 — a 300% increase.
This is what Democrats are fighting to prevent.
