This administration (specifically the Coast Guard) doesn't see a swastika as a hate symbol? People who stand up for Palestine get arrested and/or deported but we also don't want to call a swastika a hate symbol? A noose is only "potentially devisive." This administration just hates everyone.

I need a good cry. This shit is stressful. Just constantly being alert to what politician or corporation is trying to screw us today and how I can try to avoid it.

Schumer’s resume:
- gets outfoxed by McConnell during two Trump impeachments
- consistently fails to whip the vote when it matters
- folds like a cheap lawn chair under pressure
- thumbs his nose at new progressive candidates
It’s like we brought reading glasses to a gun fight.

This is exactly correct.
Assume all the yes and no votes from Dem senators are strategic and not sincere votes. The party caucus made a decision. No way to know how many were in favor. Then the caucus decided who would vote yes and no based on what would protect each of them politically the most. That’s how this works.

If you believe it was just 8 senators I have a bridge in Brooklyn to sell you. This was a Schumer operation.

Republicans were overwhelmingly getting blamed for the shutdown.
There was no reason for the Democrats to cave to Trump on healthcare, except for the fact that they are wholly owned and operated by the health insurance lobby.

@usrepkathycastor.bsky.social Please don't capitulate to Republican demands if it means throwing working class Americans under the bus on healthcare. They cannot be trusted. Trump wants Americans impoverished. Don't let him.

I can't believe how desperately Trump doesn't want people to eat. It's wild. Please @democrats.org do not give an inch on healthcare. Do not let Americans sink further into medical debt. Don't let them go hungry. Fight for working class Americans, not big donors.

A whole lot of this. Thank you, Governor Shapiro.
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.

800+ flights cancelled today because Elon took a chainsaw to the federal government and Trump won’t pay the remaining airport personnel.
Elon’s on his way to becoming a trillionaire.
Trump’s net worth has more than doubled inside a year.
Glad everything worked out for them.
How about you?

My health insurance for next year (same plan) is $560/mo (previously $350). That's with telling them I make $24k/year. That means they want me to pay 1/4 of my income each month. If I go Bronze instead of Silver, my deductible is $6000 (instead of $0). My yearly max would go from $3350 to $10k.

The Walton family (who own Walmart) are worth over $400 billion, yet many of their employees are on SNAP.
Bezos is worth over $400 billion, many Amazon employees require SNAP.
The people who need help are not the problem.
It’s corporate greed. It’s an unwillingness to pay a living wage.

Advocates for Strict Voting Requirements Can’t Find Evidence of Noncitizen Voting
Not surprisingly, a state investigation found that it's American citizens who vote in Louisiana.
