So at the beginning of Nov Congress would have been paid, unless they specifically had their pay check held.
I would argue they should donate it because they haven’t worked.
Maybe a good question for reporters to catalog?

Shapiro: He rose to some prominence by writing a book about growing up in Appalachia, where there are a whole lot of people who get SNAP. He made millions of dollars off telling their stories, and then he turned his damn back on those very people he likes to write about and claim as his own.

And keep giving Joe Rogan those reviews that reflect the dog-vomit he calls a podcast. If there were a half star, I’d give him one 💙😆
Spotify is crashing HARD because of the boycott. Their stock dropped 11% in value over the last month. Let’s keep this going!
Tell everyone you know to boycott Spotify. There are plenty of alternatives that don’t run ICE advertisements and screw over artists.
We made it easy at boycottspotify.com.
