Increase in productivity since 1979: 87%
Increase in hourly pay since 1979: 32%
Just so happens that ~25% of workers were unionized in 1979. Today? 10%.
As unions declined, the super-rich have taken a larger share of wealth generated by labor. We must build back union power.

Trump’s Christmas Day attacks on Nigeria a complete failure and cost nearly $30 million.
Witnesses report the US struck fields and farmland in areas with no history of terrorist activity or presence. On top of that multiple US missiles failed to detonate & sunk into the dirt.

Gangster bullsh*t. Make ICE pay with prison time.
ICE detain father shopping on Christmas Eve—then steal his family's groceries.
Then 3 agents divvy up his paid for food—taking what they want for themselves.
"Can I just get the wife's number to call and let her know?" woman asks.
"No, guess he should've complied," agent says.

The full segment aired on the GlobalTV app in Canada. Someone sent me a link to a recorded version. Let's see if we can figure out whether Bari Weiss' decision to spike it was editorial or political.
