Like clockwork the churches are trying to satiate the masses by saying “you must obey the law of the land” verse. Pathetic
That is the problem with thinking the law is an inherently moral thing. It is not. It never was. Slavery was the law. Jim Crow too. Sterilization of the disabled is the law.

You can love someone you love even if you don't love yourself🏳️⚧️
But if you love yourself, you can love both yourself and the person you love. Your love becomes twofold.
So take care of yourself.

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?

As of this morning, Starbucks workers across the country are officially ON STRIKE. And we're prepared for this to become the biggest and longest ULP strike in Starbucks history.
Say #NoContractNoCoffee with us: DON'T BUY STARBUCKS for the duration of our open-ended ULP strike! $SBUX

Soon, we'll oversee a budget of more than $100 billion — and every dollar will reflect our commitment to working New Yorkers and delivering universal childcare. Good thing some little New Yorkers gave me a counting lesson today!

We need to find a new colloquialism to describe the mental gymnastics MAGA are participating in to simultaneously claim that the Epstein files are a smoking gun against democrats but also that any reference to Trump and other GOP is innocuous or incidental.

I just walked out of federal court where I pleaded NOT GUILTY to the charges against me.
I will continue to stand up to authoritarianism and call this out for what it is: a political prosecution.

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.

This is the facility that I and many others have been protesting. We’ve been hit, thrown, gassed, and shot with pepper bullets but none of that holds a candle to what is being done to people *in* the actual facility.
Read this thread. Don’t look away. Keep your eyes and the pressure on Broadview.

A family friend was telling us about what her husband shared about his experience in Broadview before he was deported back to Mexico. She's been sharing to friends and family because she's just in disbelief & horror what her husband told her. She wasn't able to talk to him until he was in Mexico.

The choice we need in healthcare isn’t between insurance companies. It’s between doctors and hospitals. Medicare for All opens that choice for everyone.

Let's not pretend like Latin American drug gangs and cartels aren't a thing. I can certainly understand Latino immigrants and Americans being afraid of cartels and cartel associates operating in their neighborhoods and endangering their families and children.
Sen. Ruben Gallego on Latino voters: "They are worried about the cost of living...They're also worried about what's happening with immigration enforcement right now...They were told that the administration was going to go after criminals, not fathers and mothers."
