is Congress developing a pulse?
The House has voted unanimously to repeal the provisions in the shutdown package which allow GOP Senators to sue the federal government and get as much as $1 million in damages - because the feds looked at their phone records in the Jan. 6 investigation.

I really can't stress how important it is for progressive and leftists to contend for school, library, water, etc etc boards. Hyper local involvement in our communities where we can actually influence lives.
Following the recent election, leadership will be changing in many districts where conservative values previously dominated school board meetings and community actions.

Voters shift school boards toward LGBTQ+ inclusion across PA and N.J. - Philadelphia Gay News
School boards in PA and NJ are shifting fast—LGBTQ+ leaders are winning, conservatives are losing, and policy battles are heating up.

Q: “Most hospitals + people who will lose insurance are in rural areas. If Trump & Republicans are so intent on sticking it to their own voters, why not let them?”

See today how many times you can mentally append "So give up, peon" to the end of the headline or story. If it works, ignore that story, which is not reporting but propaganda designed to make you as broken and afraid as our self-appointed masters.

I have a feeling the protests are going to get bigger and bigger.
Trump did not even win a majority of the Presidential vote. More people voted AGAINST him.

Let's be clear on who Christopher Columbus was, a conquerer who spread disease & slavery who was so sadistic in the ways he treated natives he appalled the architects of the Spanish Inquisition. That's the fact of him there is to reclaim.

But 3 invasions of cities, one military buildup outside Venezuela, a government shutdown, and so many other things meant to distract have me convinced whatever’s in there is the biggest presidential scandal in U.S. history.
