For more than 3 years, @pghguild.com members at the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette have shown incredible strength while on strike.

Their heroic persistence demonstrates the real power of our solidarity and what’s possible when we come together in a union.

I just walked out of federal court where I pleaded NOT GUILTY to the charges against me.

I will continue to stand up to authoritarianism and call this out for what it is: a political prosecution.

"It is unconscionable that what we are debating right now is legislation that will give 8 members of the United States Senate over $1,000,000 a piece and we are robbing people of their food assistance and healthcare to pay for it. How is this even on the floor!?"

@jenpsaki.msnbc.com why didn’t you ask @robertgarcia.bsky.social what they’re finding in the #EpsteinFiles about Clinton who palled around with JE? Why didn’t you ask about the bankers, billionaires, donors to Democrats, etc who funded and covered up for JE, pedophilia, drugs, and sex trafficking?

I just received my food delivery that I was able to purchase because I RECEIVED my SNAP benefits today. I sobbed. I didn't expect that reaction. I cried for the relief of having access to food but it was ALSO for the 42M under so much stress and for the MILLIONS who have NOT received their benefits.

This deal to reopen the government is fucking disgraceful.

Tens of millions will lose their healthcare. Trump will be emboldened.

This is exactly what’s wrong with Democratic Party leadership and why we need more people in Congress who will actually hold the line.

If I were @schumer.senate.gov, I would not agree to help Republicans fund this regime on the "promise" of an ACA vote at a later date. It didn't work the last time when they promised to fund DC. It won't work this time either. The House won't touch it.

I can’t describe the rage I feel right now.

Tonight, I cry. Tomorrow, I organize.

Chuck Schumer needs to step down. This is absolutely unacceptable.

Anyway a great way to radicalize people is for them to realize that you just abandoned their chance at being able to access and afford health care because you didn’t like waiting in line at the airport.

Cull the Democratic Party. Systematically chip away all the weak, corporate centrists and corrupt, gutless elected officials who refuse to fight and instead suck at the teat of the oligarchy.
