Maybe this is what America needed in order to push for universal healthcare. I’d like to think that will be our silver lining.
Health insurers are jacking up premiums while raking in billions in profits.
Expiring ACA subsidies will saddle millions of Americans with massive monthly premium increases.
Is it any wonder that 63% of Americans now support Medicare for All?

As a military officer I am going to keep saying this---please stop framing this as "war crimes". There is no war here. We are not at war with a handful of drug runners off the coast of Venezuela. It's a extrajudicial killing. Calling it a "war crime" gives it legitimacy it does not have.

Pastor Black: While I was in the middle of using the words of Jesus, they opened fire on me. It was so clear that they had been so poorly trained, or — the alternative — that they had been deliberately told to escalate violence against peaceful protesters.

Medicare for All would save $450B a year.
Every dollar spent on food stamps generates $1.50-$1.80 in economic activity.
Each dollar going to low-wage workers adds $1.20 to the economy overall.
It’s not about what this country can or can’t afford.

No contract, no coffee
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

Obstruct much, anyone?
“Weaponizing the DOJ” takes on a whole new level when you order investigations in order to reopen it so it’s no longer closed and you can claim you can’t release information because it’s an “ongoing investigation”

Sen. John Fetterman was hospitalized after falling near his Pennsylvania home and sustaining “minor injuries” to his face, the senator's spokesperson said.
