The Thanksgiving legend that our holiday was based upon was almost complete historic disinformation. It only makes sense that the holiday has now mostly turned into a time when us progressives have to temper our maga relatives who thrive on disinformation even though their faces have been eaten.

Citizens United must be permanently banned through actions of the States because this Supreme Court will always capitulate to the corporations.
In conjunction, the people and states need a referendum to ban stock buybacks by the sleazy and corrupt conglomerates.

Why?!? Why can’t one reporter or journalist in the US do this to trump and his administration members.

It’s what’s needed, and this is THE moment.
Good morning to Brazilian reporter Manuela Borges, who’s been waiting eleven years for this petty moment. ❤️ 🇧🇷

Implementation of a UBI is also imperative.

It would likely solve the hunger issue for those unable to earn and those earning the lowest.
Busting up big corporations and tackling Wall Street’s greed.

Getting big money out of politics.

Strengthening unions and fighting for higher wages.

Medicare for all, paid family leave, universal childcare...

This is the progressive populist agenda we need in America.

Almost two-thirds of small and mid-size business owners say they plan to increase prices next year as nearly all wrangle with inflation hitting their operations, a Bank of America report finds, yet many owners still expect higher revenue and plan to expand in the year ahead.
Most Small Businesses Planning Price Hikes As Inflation Escalates, Report Finds
Despite mounting pressure from tariffs and rising costs, small businesses remain “cautiously optimistic,” according to a Bank of America report.

I want to take a moment to thank the entire Elias Law Group team who worked on the Texas redistricting case as well as our fearless clients. The thirteen Black and Latino voters we represented stood up to challenge Texas's unprecedented mid-decade redistricting. We all ow them a debt of gratitude.

Lindsey Graham is an even bigger pos than I thought previously. A Senator urging our military to follow unlawful orders from an administration that should be bound for The Hague.
Lindsey Graham: "I don't think I've ever been on a show more unnerving than tonight. You've got US senators and members of the House suggesting to our men and women in the military that they should be disobeying unlawful orders issued by President Trump and his military."

I'm genuinely convinced that if universal basic income was established, there would actually be *more* employment because wages and benefits would massively increase to tempt people into jobs.

Things happen. Heads just fall off bodies. Dismemberments can happen to anyone really. And clearly the question to ask when it comes to murdering a journalist is, "Did you like him?"
This is how the depraved, unprincipled Trump excuses the murder of Jamal Khashoggi : blame the victim.

“A lot of people didn’t like that gentleman that you’re talking about, whether you like him or didn’t like him, things happen,” he says sitting with the culpable MBS.

Sickening and infuriating.

I've been researching the idea of Unconditional Universal Basic Income since 2013. Here's a collection of findings I've compiled from various UBI experiments and studies of cash transfer programs around the world.
