It shouldn't get lost that just today, Senate Republicans have voted to close nursing homes, close rural hospitals, and cut food stamp benefits for children and veterans.

EVERYBODY WATCH.

ICE IS OUT OF CONTROL.

Video of SEIU California’s President David Huerta getting assaulted & arrested during an ICE raid in the warehouse district of Downtown Los Angeles today.

He’s an LA native, American citizen and labor leader.

Don’t turn away.

The IRS unit that audits ultrawealthy earners has lost 38% of its employees this year.

This will starve the government of revenue by making it easier for the rich to evade taxes — which the top 1% already do to the tune of $163B a year.

See what DOGE is really about?

Can’t help but feel that if President Bernie Sanders pulled this move the entirety of American business would try to get him pushed out of office immediately.

There's a lot going on, God knows, but don't miss that the President of the United States is using the full force of the Federal government, as well as tax dollars, to punish a state because its Governor... refused to do as he instructed.

Coups don’t happen without enablers. They happen because senators like Collins, Tillis, Sullivan, Husted and Ernst let them.

Our campaign is focused on holding these Republicans accountable for every piece of the Project 2025 agenda that Trump and Musk are able to implement due to their complicity.
It's payback time.
Let's hold Senate Republicans accountable for enabling the Trump/Musk coup.

Those weren't just words last night. Today, we're launching the Payback Project to hold Susan Collins (ME), Thom Tillis (NC), Dan Sullivan (AK), Jon Husted (OH), Joni Ernst (IA) accountable for enabling the Trump-Musk coup.

i think it is important to say that the open and explicit racism of the president and the vice president isn’t just uncouth or “controversial” but a direct attack on tens of millions of americans and a dereliction of their duty to represent the entire country

Ive said this before. Unions have a moment in time to create parallel, Non Profit Trust or Associated Health Plans and
offer them to small to medium size businesses.

Unions can negotiate far better than SMBs or associations .

Imagine if millions got their healthcare from unions ?

Thoughts ?

Idgaf I’m still fighting for guaranteed healthcare.

Aspiration is the answer. Not just “we’re not the bad guys.”

We need something more meaningful than that. I want a future worth fighting for. They have no vision. We do. Lean into our strengths and knock them out. 👊🏽

Bodies are still being pulled from the Potomac.

The President and extreme MAGA Republicans are blaming women and people of color for the deadly plane crash.

At the same time, they are dismantling the Federal Aviation Administration as we know it.

Disgusting.

Yes, this administration is dangerous and cruel, but they are also shockingly dim and incompetent.

Opportunities are everywhere.

Make everything as hard as possible. Resist every demand. Refuse entry without a warrant. Don’t take the buyout. Their problem solving skills are 📉
