Important to understand the Epstein stuff and the fascism and the corruption are, in a lot of ways, really all the same story from different angles: powerful men who can and do abuse vulnerable people around them because they can, and because systems of elite accountability catastrophically failed

The value of reading history is you know that in 1860 there were abolitionists who were so demoralized that they thought chattel slavery would be permanent. 5 years later those still alive had lived to see its end.

Hey @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social and @schumer.senate.gov: compromising with fascists is compliance. Read the room. Do your jobs. Protect your constituents.

As I've always said, I will not support a government funding bill that continues to raise our costs, jeopardizes our health care, and hurts the people of my state.

I’m urging my colleagues on both sides of the aisle to stand up for Americans who are counting on us to lower their costs, and address…

I can NOT afford an extra $500/mo. I am barely making it as is.
@andykimnj.bsky.social & @corybooker.com BETTER not vote for this bullshit. Why have we made people suffer for 40 days to get nothing? Because the airports got sad, & Senators wanted to go home for the weekend?? I am going to explode.
The average SNAP benefit per month is $177 a person.

The average ACA benefit per month is up to $550 a person.

People want us to hold the line for a reason. This is not a matter of appealing to a base. It’s about people’s lives.

And working people want leaders whose word means something to them.

My family has been without half our income for 40 days. It has been.. very hard.

We are willing to feel that pain so people can have health care next year, or to undo these illegal recissions.

We are not willing to have been put through this for NOTHING.

Just called and said some very bad words at my Senators’ voice mails. I am livid.

I just had to redo my budget bc the math wasn’t mathing. My personal grocery bill for one person (partner and don’t eat the same things, cat supplies are a separate line item) jumped $75/month since Trump took over.

Groceries saw their biggest jump in nearly three years last month, a worrisome sign for inflation-weary shoppers. Tariffs are contributing to higher prices for imported staples like bananas and coffee.
Grocery prices have jumped up, and there's no relief in sight

My reading was only monitored in that my parents paid for my habit. They bought all the Judy Blumes INCLUDING Forever, banned books encouraged. I still feel liberated.

I think we need to stop calling it empathy and go back to calling it decency. It isn't a favour you're doing someone else, it's you proving that you aren't a fucking ghoul
