I hope people see how truly alarming this is:

1. Musk's team, who may not even be US govt employees yet, have complete access to OPM's databases of PII on federal employees and have locked out career employees

2. Musk's people trying to do same with THE US TREASURY MASTER PAYMENT SYSTEM 🚨

As we prepare for MLK Day, it’s my pleasure to recognize MD-08’s Dr. Daryl Davis as our Local Hero. This blues piano sensation, accomplished author and determined opponent of—and, amazingly, friend to—Klansmen and white supremacists, has been transforming America, often one racist at a time.

"We should have free health care for all!"
"Who's gonna pay for it?" Says Mr. Smug
"The taxpayers"
"Who's gonna benefit from it?"
"The taxpayers"

See how that works? We need to stop ending the conversation at "who's gonna pay for it?" as if that's some brilliant Gotcha question.

How we got into this mess, and how we get out of it.
Capitalism is compatible with democracy only if democracy is the dominant partner. It was dominant from 1933 until 1980. Then hyper-capitalism took over, and finally gave us Trump.

Do you know how much CEO pay has skyrocketed since 1978?

100%? 500%?

Try 1,085%

Meanwhile, the $7.25/hr fed. minimum wage hasn't budged in 15 years and the tipped min. wage has been $2.13/hr since 1991.

This is what I mean when I say the system is rigged.

Unlike last week, tomorrow a simple majority in the House could pass the “nonprofit killer” bill, placing all NGOs that campaign for human rights in jeopardy. We need each of our US followers to contact their congressperson and tell them VOTE “NO” ON HR 9495!
