POTUS is quoted on the WH x page referring to himself as “the king” now and wearing a crown.

The newest article in WGLT series on housing in Mclean County shows our median income is going down. Those white-collar salaries aren’t as available as they used to be.

Yet, rent has increased 36% in just a few years.

Wages down, rent up not a great combination for the local economy.

Pay attention to your local elections. You’ll be surprised at the fascists on your doorstep.

Connect me with all the millennials who are beyond excited for the Buffy Reboot because SMG is coming back.

Who else would you love to see return? Spike? Willow? Xander?

Fuck Trump. This is what ethnic cleansing looks like people.

The labor movement is the best tool we have to combat fascism and activate more voters.

Organize. Demonstrate the change that happens when workers use their voice collectively to impact their material conditions at their jobs. Demonstrate how much stronger we are when we are in solidarity

Immigrant rights are workers’ rights—any effort to exploit and attack immigrant workers creates a race to the bottom for all of us. Until every worker has equal and enforceable rights, corporations and bosses will continue to underpay and exploit the working people of this country.

I watched the speech.
It is fitting that they had such a hard time getting “America the Beautiful” started afterward.

Good. But antitrust action is just the first step. No human right should be run for profit. Landlords must be abolished, & the housing system itself turned on its head. RealPage claims that supply is the problem, but there are many times more vacant units than homeless people. Our problem is greed.
Illinois joins Justice Department lawsuit against RealPage and big landlords
The real estate companies kept rents high with RealPage's software and by sharing information, the antitrust complaint says.

Nothing like posting about luxury rentals being built in a town that has seen a 30+% increase in rent in 4 years and a rent burden of 50% with a shortage of 8,000 units and saying “if all we build is upscale rent will go up” to make folks come to the comments, rip you apart, and say you’re stupid.

Fb doesn’t believe in fact checking anymore because tech bro zuck is bowing down to President Musk and assistant president trump. Who needs the truth anymore, right? 🤡

OSF HealthCare I hope your official stance on personal choice for masking will also extend to reproductive healthcare personal choices between your doctors and patients.

CEOs raked in an average of $17.7 million last year. That’s 268 times what the average worker earns. Yet, wages for workers barely budged, growing just 3.9%.

Want to fix it? Support unions. Fight for workers. End corporate greed.

The Starbucks at College Hills in Normal has filed their petition to unionize and will vote this month!

Wear red Saturday and Sunday and grab a coffee there to show your support for their efforts to unionize!

Arguing with landlords about how it’s morally wrong to perpetuate poverty and profit off the struggle of others, but I guess that makes me a communist. 🤦🏻‍♀️

Lift the ban on rent control, illinois!

Tonight McLean County Board says goodbye to several republicans.

We’re entering a new era here and residents are ready for change. I’m honored to get to be part of making change happen.

10/10 split to a 12/8 majority, Dems delivered in McLean county and the national party should take notes.

Welp. The AP is calling it. Republicans will have control of the House, Senate, and President with the US Supreme Court in 47s back pocket. 😭🤮🤬

Spent the afternoon at the Illinois Capitol demanding an undo to Tier 2 pensions! Our public sector workers deserve a dignified retirement!
