Would you still buy eggs if the cashier at the grocery cracks them open in front of you and promises you "yolks tomorrow"?

Well, eight Democratic senators did just that.

Kyle Kingsbury is not a journalist. He is not an op-ed writer.

He is a computer safety researcher.

And he has written one of the most compelling, comprehensive accounts of the ongoing hell in Chicago that you could possibly imagine.

In under 1600 words.

Welp, for the second time since the start of the pandemic in 2020 I have Covid. Last time was two years ago in Italy, where I spent the last half of my trip to Rome staring at the hotel room ceiling. At least this time I’ve got my creature comforts of home and my pets…

It's been 43 days since Adelita Grijalva was elected by the people of Arizona's seventh congressional district to represent them in Congress.

Mike Johnson still refuses to swear her in.

The biggest line of horseshit on a business phone tree?? “Please listen carefully as our menu options have recently changed…”
No Gloria, it’s the same as it was a decade ago…

It truly is! 😖

And the fact that there are emergency funds that would allow people to eat is diabolical!

Hit the ❤️ if you agree!

Today, Mike Johnson will keep the House adjourned for the 94th day out of the last 106.

12 days of work in 106 days.

With full pay and benefits.

The senate has been working, so this is not about the shutdown.

It is about avoiding a vote to release the Epstein files.

Thank Christ that Nancy Pelosi has decided to do the responsible thing and not seek reelection.

It's no longer left versus right or even Democrat versus Republican.

It’s now democracy versus oligarchy. Freedom versus dictatorship. Right versus wrong.

Millions are awakening to this new reality — and they're speaking up.

The sleeping giant of America is roaring.

"Pope Leo said Scripture emphasizes the question that will be posed at the end of the world:

'How did you receive the foreigner, did you receive him and welcome him, or not? I think there is a deep reflection that needs to be made about what is happening'..."

Pope Leo calls for ‘deep reflection’ about treatment of detained migrants in U.S.
“Many people who have lived for years and years and years, never causing problems, have been deeply affected by what is going on right now,” Chicago-born pope says.

WOW. 81% of women 18-29 voted for Mamdani, 80% for Sherril, and 78% for Spanberger.

Gen Z women aren't playing around.

About Teen Vogue,
I don't read or care much for a lot of mainstream media, but Teen Vogue is the only consistent non-Native media outlet that has always done an incredible job reporting on Native issues and giving our talent a platform to shine and not just to fill their "diversity" quota.

Walmart, McDonalds and Amazon are the largest employers of people who require SNAP assistance.

The CEOs earned between 18-40 million last year, 1000x their median employee income.

They took billions in profits, while their workers relied on SNAP to survive.

Wanna fix fraud and abuse?

Fix that.

Ok let’s post something cheerful for a break in my fury at Mike Johnson who is actively both acting as 47’s lapdog and lackey whilst also sucking his dick and protecting paedophiles.

JESUS FUCKING CHRIST!!! No they don’t,THERE IS AN EMERGENCY FUND AVAILABLE, they refuse to access it. THEY ARE DOING THIS TO HURT AMERICAN CHILDREN AND SENIORS TO PROTECT A PEDOPHILE… This does not have to happen, the cruelty is the point. Shame on the R/MAGA party for actively harming Americans
Mike Johnson: "They want to give illegal benefits -- or, benefits back to illegal aliens."
