This is an actual exchange from a VP who took an oath to defend the constitution and, as a citizen, is expected to abide by the law.
May we one day have accountability for the grotesque lawlessness of this regime.

The president of the United States just declared war, actual military war, not a metaphorical one, on a major American city, and one governed by his political opponents.
In any other period, this would be impeachment-worthy.

The President of the United States just essentially declared a war on Chicago because — wait for it! — Black and Brown people live here.
This is not normal. This is not okay. And we are going to fucking fight back.

I want to give those of you who have not been exposed to this new strain of Covid a warning. It is very insidious. I have had it now for almost 3 weeks it does not want to go away. I thought I was getting better, but now having a problem breathing. Please be careful especially the immunocompromised.

I'm old enough to remember when polio put my friends into iron lungs.
We dutifully lined up at school to get vaccinated. We eradicated the disease. We protected the common good and saved lives.
What RFK Jr. is doing to public health in America is a disgrace.

It is wild that the Washington Post -- which claims "Democracy Dies in Darkness" -- has remained completely silent for more than a day about Trump's latest attack on free and fair elections.

It wasn’t until 1938—more than a half century after the Haymarket Riot and the national strikes for eight-hour workdays—when Congress passed the Fair Labor Standards Act, which limited the workweek to 44 hours, and then amended the law two years later to 40 hours.
Did you know in 1890 manufacturing employees worked on average 100 hours a week? It would be decades before the eight-hour workday became real. It took labor activists and labor unions to turn the cry for change into policy and practice. www.americaamerica.news/p/a-labor-da...
