Amazon has cut a combined 28,000 jobs since October. Its CEO made $40M+ in 2024
UPS has announced 78,000 job cuts since last year. Its CEO made $24M.
HP announced up to 6,000 layoffs in November. Its CEO made $21M.
This is what I mean when I say the system is rigged.

We can honor Catherine O'Hara through buying, renting, and streaming her filmography over the next few days, so that the revenue is more than the box office receipts for "Melania" on opening weeken--oh, excuse me...

Frey: "In Mpls, we heard them say they'll end this siege when we hand over voter rolls. The DOJ is being used as a weapon. They're investigating me and several other local elected officials not because we've done something wrong because we speak on behalf of our constituents.

Trump’s deployment of federal troops has cost taxpayers nearly $500 million so far — and could surpass $1 billion for the rest of the year.
That’s after slashing SNAP and Medicaid, letting ACA subsidies expire, and gutting countless other federal programs.

Amazon just announced another round of 16,000 layoffs, months after it laid off 14,000 workers.
Reminder that Amazon CEO Andy Jassy raked in over $40M in 2024.
And Amazon is spending at least $75 million producing and promoting the Melania documentary.
The system is rigged.

ICE murdered Renée Good in broad daylight. Less than 3 weeks later, they killed Alex Pretti, shooting him 10 times. Every day, we watch as people are ripped from their cars, their homes, their lives.
We can't allow ourselves to look away from this cruelty. Abolish ICE.

Needless to say that Renee Good and Alex Pretti will go down as heroes here in Minnesota and nationally, their names synonymous with sacrifice and caring for vulnerable neighbors even at the risk of your own life. And hopefully no more innocent lives are lost.

Went to my local library this morning to do a bit of research for my current book project and my goodness such a life-affirming space! There was an adult being taught to read on the next table, children enjoying story time, countless people taking out books. So grateful for our libraries ❤️

Alex Pretti served as a nurse in the intensive care unit of the Veterans Affairs hospital in Minneapolis. He cared for the most vulnerable patients in the veteran population. I've been thinking the veterans who received care from him. Some homeless, some without family. He was there for them.

How many years have we been watching gun nuts open carry semiautomatic rifles into, like, a Dunkin' Donuts as a statement against government control? And they're now silent over a citizen being murdered by federal agents and then blamed for legally carrying a firearm?
