Are you a part of a third party in the U.S.? If so, what party is it, and why do you prefer that one over all others?

Bernie's last email was interesting...

Sounds like he may want to finally start a 3rd party.

I think the first step is assessing what policies and infrastructures our current left-leaning parties have.

What do you think is the first step to building a coalition on the left?

Trump taps Project 2025 architect Ross Vought to lead the budget office. Here was Vought during the campaign saying he didn't blame Trump for disavowing Project 2025 because he knew it was a good political move.

I want to CREATE A DATABASE OF LEFT POLITICAL PARTIES and their views on issues so that we could begin collectively agreeing on them and pool resources.

Before I do that...is there a thorough doc/site already out there with data points and analysis?

No need for me to dupe and waste time if so.

The #workingclass is continuing to wake up.
A supermajority of the battery workers at a Kentucky plant have signed union authorization cards and are launching public campaign to join the UAW today.

The plant is owned by BlueOval SK, a joint venture of Ford and Korean company SK On.

Police ripping banner signs (aka private property) out of the hands of protestors.

Don't the protestors know they need a proper permit and police department approval to protest? (I'm being facetious)

🚨ACTION NEEDED: H.R. 9495 includes a poison pill provision that is a serious threat to nonprofits. This bill would remove due process and hand over considerable power to future administrations.

Join us in urging Congress to vote NO on H.R. 9495!

*TW: Children dying*

Almost two months after the resolutions were introduced, today, 79 Senators voted against continuing sending offensive weapons to Israel.

The US also vetoed the UN Security Council's ceasefire demand.

I'll rate this as a FAIL by both parties in power. Inhumane sociopaths.

We must FIRMLY AND UNWAVERINGLY stand for trans rights or continue to mourn a longer list of names each November.

Regardless of party, any #policy or stance belittling #trans issues is abandoning all LGBTQ people. We are a package deal.
