The fact that Dems haven't run dozens of Wille Horton ads for each of these recidivist fucks is yet another example of how completely unfit they are to be an opposition party

This is designed to tank public health & primary care by excluding public health professions, advanced nursing practice, physical & occupational therapy from loans that can cover the cost of education. This is going to make an existing workforce crisis worse.

As of this morning, Starbucks workers across the country are officially ON STRIKE. And we're prepared for this to become the biggest and longest ULP strike in Starbucks history.

Say #NoContractNoCoffee with us: DON'T BUY STARBUCKS for the duration of our open-ended ULP strike! $SBUX

Maintaining a transphobic line as an institution is indicative of other problems that institution may not be so eager to advertise.

the stupid idea of tech as “oh wow the world will be saved with shiny consumer objects” turned into “the premise of technology means the weirdest most hateful people will order your world without social sanction or permission, via scams, govt murder contracts” in like a decade and a half tops huh?

The far right is obsessed with Lord of the Rings and Musk keeps posting about "hobbits" because modern scientific racism owes more to fantasy worlds and gaming systems than genetic science, and they see both as effective mediums for right-wing propaganda www.theatlantic.com/ideas/2025/1...

if they wanted to make a difference, MLB would keep the pitch props, but, instead of the money being deposited in the sportsbook, the money would immediately be sent to a family member, and would initiate an immediate phone call to 1-800-Gambler

BREAKING: We won!

Today the 3rd Circuit Court ordered the @post-gazette.com to restore our contract it illegally tore up 5 years ago. That’s our health care, PTO, right to a 40-hr. work week, short-term disability and so much more we’ve struck for 3+ years.

Anyway, I think Dems are right to believe subsidy expiration, because many Americans will suffer and maybe die, is going to hurt Republicans in the midterms. A less harmful way to do well in elections, though, is to offer voters a compelling vision for why they should vote, affirmatively, for you.

But what do you think about current Dem leadership and are you calling for a change after this massive failure? That's power you have right now.

We should be asking this and related questions of all Senate Dems. Stay tuned for more tomorrow.
Tonight, I am voting no on a procedural vote on an appropriations deal that would re-open the government. Since July, I have been clear: to earn my vote, Republicans would have to do something to bring down the cost of health care for working and middle-class Michiganders. (1/4)

Every few weeks we gotta make posts like this”call your dem reps to tell them to not vote to allow Lord Killdude to shove people into a volcano” and then the dem reps go “we’ve made an amazing deal where Lord Killdude can have his volcano so long as he promises not to shove people into it”

It would have been better to simply cave on day one than do this. how can you ask anyone to suffer through a shutdown ever again, if you can deliver *nothing*?

Appreciate that this man went with a single clear sentence rather than the 6 paragraph essay format preferred by most Dem candidates and electeds
