I guarantee no member of the National Guard would have been killed if the National Guard hadn't been idiotically deployed to American cities to make a Very Special Boy finally feel like a Big Army Man

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.

Look, I know we're all sick of hearing "if this had happened with any other president ..." but it's absolutely true and absolutely can't be forgotten.

For some reason, this nation gives this idiotic spoiled brat a free pass from things that would destroy the administration of any other person.
When asked if there was anything "incriminating" in Epstein's emails, Trump pointed a finger in a female reporter's face and snapped. 'Quiet. Quiet, Piggy.'

same way they oppose abortion but say "my body my choice" about vaccination.

its not about a coherent ideology. its just about owning the libs. if you try to make it make sense youll go mad.
Yet, even though they vehemently don't want SNAP - they are still blaming the Dems for halting a program they desperately want discontinued. Make it make sense.

If you make 130% of the federal poverty level, you qualify for SNAP.

A family of four, making $40,560, qualifies for SNAP benefits meaning thousands of Missouri teachers qualify.

I’m tired of the bullshit. Most of the people who receive snap benefits work.

Just a thought: How about we stop shaming the poor for buying things that may not be essential, and start shaming the rich for making a profit off things that are essential?

Voting is underway in New Jersey. This is a close race, and a MUST WIN for us. A loss would enable Trump and his GOP sycophants. If you are nearby, please set aside a day to knock doors and get out our vote. If not, please phone bank or donate.

Now we are up to $40 billion for Argentina. Can anyone stop Bessent from unilaterally sending unlimited amounts of our money to South America? And Republicans won’t even negotiate with the Democrats on health care for Americans. Where is Congress?

I hope it's clear to everyone now that Trump really is going for it - he's trying to become a dictator. I don't know if he'll succeed, but he's working to install himself as an autocrat unaccountable to voters. And he's weaponizing the military against Americans who oppose him as part of that effort

This current American presidential administration is run by people who are quite obviously mentally ill, and we need to start talking about that.

Increase in productivity since 1979: 87%

Increase in hourly pay since 1979: 32%

Just so happens that ~25% of workers were unionized in 1979. Today? 10%.

As unions declined, the super-rich have taken a larger share of wealth generated by labor. We must build back union power.

The stupidity part is this new eugenics bros ending vaccines to “cull the weak” — but that’s not what happens. People don’t just die. They are maimed, disfigured, disabled, disadvantaged for life by totally preventable diseases that no one ever needs to have. Having them does not make you stronger.
Stupid and deadly
I don’t think any country in the history of the world has ever done anything as stupidly self destructive as what Trump and RFK jr are doing with vaccines.

Kroger will lay off ~1,000 employees.

In December, it announced $7.5B in stock buybacks – which juice stock prices, enriching shareholders and boosting CEO pay.

Just so happens that Kroger's last CEO was paid 457x its typical employee in 2024.

Textbook corporate greed.

Remember: There is nothing natural or inevitable about extreme inequality; it’s the result of an economic system that values wealth and power over human dignity and justice.

It doesn't have to be this way.

Yes, a movement is spreading of towns and counties passing "resolutions of condemnation" of Trump for his abandonment of the Constitutional order and other "injuries," "abuses," and "usurpations." More than 60 resolutions are moving in 20 states. Ones in NM and MA have passed. Learn more 👇
