Just a reminder that a staggering number of Black women have also lost their jobs due to capitulation to this administration. That deserves more outrage.

Does this mean I have to actually stay up and watch Jimmy Kimmel? Say no. I don’t think he’s funny. But I cancelled Disney+ because he has a right to be unfunny without government interference.

Steve Kerr’s father was killed, victim of a political assassination while Steve was 18, a freshman in college. Steve has been a relentless advocate for gun legislation. Gun violence, political assassination is never acceptable. Sympathies to Charlie Kirk’s loved ones.

Do they really think they can scare us with the word “socialist” when they are literally sending out men in masks with no warrants and no badges to disappear people off American streets?

Let's be absolutely clear: physically assaulting a US Senator for simply asking a question is disgraceful. We stand with Senator Padilla and all those peacefully defending working people against this administration's attacks.
