Americans have no idea what socialism means
In the civilized parts of the world it means people have the power to choose to not be screwed over by rapey, greedy corporate thugs. That’s it. That’s all it means

BREAKING: AOC on MTG retiring:
"She's carefully timing her departure just 1-2 days after her pension kicks in and after making millions of dollars insider trading stocks for weapons manufacturers and others while in office."

Truly medication is a huge worry for me. There are multiple adult family members in my life who depend on medication.
No person should be forced to skip or ration medication because they can't afford it.
We've capped insulin costs at $35 per month for our seniors—now let's extend those savings so more people can access the care they need.

I have been on food stamps. The process is tedious and thorough. If there is any doubt, you're instantly denied and have to reapply. This step is nothing about fraud and everything about denying people. in. need. food.
DESPITE being told to feed the people via snap and ebt, Trump officials are demanding everyone RE-APPLY, a process that could take several weeks, THUS denying food to the needy at Thanksgiving. Ruined HOLIDAY. And now his ICE are going to target Churches with Hispanics, ruining Xmas/worship.

The military is required to NOT FOLLOW ILLEGAL ORDERS. That is in the Military Code.
Note how the presidents sycophants lie and shout her down with their BS.

If you receive an illegal order, you have a duty to disobey.
This isn’t controversial.
A President calling for the execution of anyone who reminds service members of this oath is showing us why the duty to disobey illegal orders is so important in the first place.

By characterizing abortion as health care, international orgs have pushed back against abortion exceptionalism. The World Health Organization recognizes that “[a]bortion is a simple health care intervention.” Numerous countries have adopted laws and policies to align with WHO recommendations.

I splurged and bought myself some clams, huge splurge since I live in Idaho. And this brought me back to summers in Vermont, with fresh steamers.

There are over a dozen billionaires IN TRUMP'S ADMINISTRATION, and dozens more supporting/bribing him, collectively worth hundreds of billions of dollars (maybe over a trillion). Yet, all they can talk about is one 93-yr-old dude who's worth $9B, allegedly supporting single everything Democrats do.

Poverty is a policy choice. Concentrated wealth is a policy choice. Inequality is a policy choice. None of it is natural or inevitable. Remember: We have the power to build a system that serves the many, not the powerful few.

A House panel is holding a hearing on a proposed ban on Congressional stock trading.
This ban is long overdue. Why should members of Congress be able to use privileged information to make money on the stock market, while they’re supposed to be working for you?

An entire School District called in to avoid ice raids. I keep repeating, crimes against humanity.
As Trump ramps up his ICE raids in Charlotte, North Carolina, more than 30,000 students across the county reportedly did not attend school on Monday.
This isn't about going after the “worst of the worst.”
It was always about cruelty.
