Can someone familiar with the

situation enlighten me with actual facts, no name calling or smearing? Why did Saikat donate $10K to Preston's opponent? If you believe he did the right thing in ousting Preston, why? KEEP IT CIVIL PLEASE.

New data finds Americans are more likely to support labor unions over Big Business than at any time in the past 60 years.

We are witnessing a historic rebirth of worker power. 

If you want a better life for you and your children, join or support a union.

Unbelievable. With Dem support, the senate passes an industry-friendly crypto bill that does nothing about Trump's crypto corruption.

Ignore these Dems' speeches. Watch their votes. They're telling you they don't get it. And then they spam you to say Trump is bad so please donate more money.
Update: I'm hearing the senate vote on this stupid crypto bill could come tonight.

This week should be about the despicable GOP reconciliation bill. The few Dems on this crypto bill aren't just wrong on policy, they're fracturing the party at a time we should be unified against GOP corruption.

Correct. Zionism is Nazism. Nothing to do with Judaism. Israel is NOT the state of the Jews. That is the Big Lie. Netanyahu is a Nazi.
These repressive policies have nothing to do with protecting American Jews from people who hate Jews and everything to do with protecting Israel from people who object to its wholesale slaughter of Palestinians in the Occupied Territories.

I want to be clear: America WILL have single payer healthcare.

How do I know? Because for-profit healthcare is unsustainable and single-payer is the best system.

We will get there. It will be a fight. It will be hard. But we will get there.

We will.

If someone proposed an antitrust deal after Trump won that looked like, "You get to keep all the big tech lawsuits, updated merger guidelines, the rules Khan issued, but you have to take shit-talking over low stakes cultural topics.", I would say YES Please

European boycotts of US goods — though still small — are gathering pace as a result of fury over Washington’s policies.
European boycotts of US goods gather pace
Though the boycott is still small, it could signal a ‘long-term structural shift… away from US products and brands,’ ECB economists wrote.

Similar to what happened to Nazi Germany, there should be a global goods embargo on Nazi America and Nazi Israel to stop the genocide for the good of humanity.

Max Blumenthal:

Israel often has wildfires, and its leaders invariably blame Palestinians

In reality, the European pine forests planted by the Jewish National Fund to cover up ethnically cleansed towns burn like tinder

Having something to watch or listen to or play at the end of the day is kind of crucial for mental health right now, so if you're a creative person and you're wondering why it matters the answer is because the rest of us kind of need it.

So keep going.

ICE can enter anyone’s home, and abduct and deport them to a foreign prison indefinitely because the DOJ says they can ignore the 4th, 5th and 15th amendments.

If there’s no due process or protections against illegal search and seizures, none of us are safe.

There is an entire political movement that believes the statement “if you work full-time in America, you should be able to pay your bills and have a savings account with your paycheck” is radical.

We must come to an agreement that it’s not radical to demand that.

News media captured by Corp interests downplays climate emergency by treating extreme weather as aberrational one offs.

These outlets r purposely misleading people & putting them in danger to protect their advertisers & owners’ interests.

Which is why YellowDot releases The Extreme Weather Report.

If you're Jewish like I am and you were silent while Biden sent 6 million in arms to genocidal Netanyahu every single month like clockwork, you have zero ground to criticize Trump's fascism and I mean none.

Let the adults talk.

It's amazing how many my age are still posting "I hope Trump dies" or "I hope he gets impeached" or even "I hope they finally release the pee tape." Here's a clue, Oakland just beat a puppet of Trump's buddies with a progressive--through HARD FUCKING WORK. Not by sitting around hoping.
