Media reports peg Labor Secretary nominee as “Trump’s Pro-Labor Pick.” But at Lori Chavez-DeRemer’s Senate hearing, she:

— defended “Right-to-Work” laws
— refused to back a minimum wage hike
— refused to back paid leave

That’s an ANTI-WORKER, ANTI-UNION AGENDA.

This country has seen some bad moments in the 61 years, 5 months, 16 days I’ve been on this Earth. But it has never, ever before come close to the supertoxic level of stupidity, mendacity, narcissism, nihilism, and moral apathy that threaten to destroy it today.

When someone expresses genuine regret voting for Trump, the best thing we can do is welcome them into the fold. We're not gonna get anywhere with ridiculous gatekeeping and pettiness. Let's offer folks an off-ramp into the coalition of reasonable adults.

The worst people you went to high school with are now running our government. They're the people who cheated on tests, bullied the smaller kids, stole stuff from lockers and lied about other students behind their backs.
They grew up, stayed awful and became MAGA.

I know all of us who understand what is happening are experiencing mental health challenges because of that.

The only message of comfort I can offer to this community of readers is this: you are correct.

What you think is happening is really happening, and is just as concerning as you think it is.
