It’s about truth & justice.
Let’s change the ugly, mean, power hungry greed.
Don’t shoot the messengers & supporters in our endeavors.
I choose strength, wisdom & humility over bad ass. 👈🏻 that gets too loud & noisy.
NOT looking for romance or to hook up.

The calls from America this weekend to "abolish the EU" are for one simple reason: the EU is the only thing that can keep European nation-states from becoming Russian or American vassals.
The US has declared rhetorical war on the EU
The calls from America this weekend to destroy the EU are revealing. They hate the union because it's the only thing that can keep European countries from being Russian or American vassals.

Donald Trump isn't interested in wielding his antitrust authority to protect the American people and preserve competition in our economy — he's using it to reward his allies.
It's all out on the open.

This is just how we do mergers now.

Trump calls Somali immigrants “garbage.” His VP cheers him on. Meanwhile, families are being torn apart, asylum is being shut down, aid is being gutted, and the military is firing on survivors in the water.
Cruelty is becoming national policy—silence is complicity.

Trump’s Dehumanization Campaign Is Becoming Normalized
A president who calls immigrants “garbage” is dangerous enough. A country that grows desensitized to it is even more frightening.

What I always hear: “We can’t afford to pay our workers more than $15 an hour.”
What I never hear: “We can’t afford to pay our CEO millions of dollars a year.”
Funny how that works.

I didn't know until this morning...yesterday was the anniversary of the 13th Amendment being ratified.
The official end of slavery in the United States...December 6, 1865.
Funny how that wasn't mentioned anywhere in the federal government yesterday. So let's celebrate it here!

For many years I could never understand why so many people blamed EVERYTHING that happened on the president. THERE ARE 3 branches of government, right?
Last Nov’s election along with the SC & congress gave trump unlimited power. So now fascist trump can be blamed for EVERYTHING.

Reminder that Starbucks’ CEO made 6,666x more than the company's median employee in 2024.
This was the widest CEO-to-Worker pay gap in the entire S&P 500.
And we're supposed to believe Starbucks can't afford to bargain a fair contract with its unionized workers?

96% of the highest-paid workers in the US have paid sick days.
Just 38% of the lowest-paid workers get them — including the thousands of retail workers working this holiday weekend.
Only in America do we call working people ‘essential’ but deny them paid sick leave.
