Ex-farm worker here.
We need to talk about this whole "But a living wage for farm workers would spike the cost of food!" thing.
Not true AT ALL.
Y'all don't understand how fast experienced farm workers are.
The average tomato picker pulls 650lbs per hour.
At $20/hr, that's $0.03/lb for labor.

The correct term is ‘assassinated’ or ‘murdered.’ The AP makes it sound like an accident.
UPDATE: The Minnesota lawmaker was killed during a string of attacks against Democratic elected officials in the state.

When social media exposes traditional media’s deceit, it’s time for independent journalists to investigate why the press is backing a president who undermines free press—and is it coordinated?

A trade deficit is not a subsidy. It is a trade imbalance. It simply means you buy more from us than we buy from you. It is not loaned money or something owed.
Yes, he is this dumb.
What’s worse, he’s using nonsense to declare war on Canada.
Call him stupid loudly.

When I was a Hill staffer in 2009, a Dem trifecta was trying to pass universal healthcare. In response, Senate GOP released a memo detailing all of the tactics they in the minority could use to delay the effort as much as possible. I'm recirculating that 2009 GOP memo here. Take inspiration from it.

If you are a federal worker being offered a buyout, I would advise against taking it.
Of course, this is a personal decision for everyone and it’s your choice.
But these offers are a rush job. The legality is questionable and this admin does not keep to its word.
They aren’t firing for a reason.
