I will not obey in advance by censoring myself from saying what is right because they might call me names. WOKE SJW!

I'm tired of nutso oligarchs having crazy amounts of money. Let's tax them into oblivion and redistribute it to ourselves. We have the numbers.

How much longer are we expected to live through this farce of a Presidency?
Rhetorical, but also seriously it’s ridiculous.

I just don’t see how we can pretend even for a moment that anything involving our federal government is remotely normal when the president is covering up his involvement in a child sex trafficking ring. Like, what are we doing here

The whole war on “woke” and “cancel culture” was contrived to protect the worst people in our society and make it possible for them to keep doing despicable things to other people.

Something absolutely perfect about Larry Summers riffing about the scourge of woke cancel culture being unfair to predatory men in a friendly email to his pal JEFFREY EPSTEIN.

I still can't believe trump tore down half the White House. He flat out lied about the plans for it. He certainly didn't tell anyone if the plans changed.

Schumer may have voted no but people are tired of the DC dance.
✅ The 8 senators admit they kept him in the loop
✅ The 8 senators that voted yes are not up for reelection
✅ His No. 2 voted yes
We need a new politics with new faces for working people.

The operating system for most politicians consists of just one question. If I vote for X, who will be upset, people WITH resources, or those without? The Dems just proved it.

We didn't know if Bovino was lying or really planning to attack the neighborhood again, but the threat was leveled, and we wanted to be ready. Also, we knew it could only be a good thing for these folks, who've been terrorized, to have a day at home, safer, with their families.

Yesterday, when Bovino announced ICE would be returning to Little Village today, some of us donated and fundraised to buy out street vendors in the neighborhood. This morning, volunteers hit the streets at 6:30 am, looking for vendors to buy out. Tamales make an excellent breakfast.

🚨 NEW: ADP report: U.S. LOST an average of 11,000 jobs per week in October 2025.
Let’s compare, shall we:
In 2024, the economy ADDED about 2.2 million jobs in 2024 — an average monthly GAIN of 186,000.
From steady climb to sudden slide.
