Shein and Temu goods might not be so cheap anymore. Starting today, the U.S. will start collecting import fees on small packages from China, much of which comes from Chinese e-commerce sites.
Shein and Temu will cost more, thanks to massive tariffs going into effect

Don’t we all want this?
AOC: I want to live in an America that guarantees healthcare to every person.

I want to live in an America that has a living wage for every person

I want to live in an America where you have free speech to express yourself and not be afraid of being put on a list or deported.

This letter appeared in the Bloomsburg PA Press Enterprise this morning. I am assured the writer is who he purports to be, an Air Force veteran.

If you live in NC, call every Republican politician you know. Call every farmer you know and ask them to do the same

When money walks , voters talk. Make sure they know this effects everyone in their town and state

Let's say their names:

* General CQ Brown, Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff: FIRED FOR BEING BLACK

* Admiral Lisa Franchetti, Chief of Naval Operations: FIRED FOR BEING FEMALE

* Admiral Linda Fagan, Coast Guard Commandant: FIRED FOR BEING FEMALE

All replaced by less qualified white guys.
its genuinely insane that they're firing CJCS for being black and CNO for being a woman. that is what's happening here

You are not powerless, and he is not unstoppable. Look at, and learn from, the funding freeze and how quickly he was forced to surrender.

Holy shit, this is bad.
From a journalist friend: Just spreading the word. The CDC is purging data, so people should archive their favorite CDC datasets today, namely ones around race/ethnic diversity, LGBTQ, and reproductive health. Also health data involving climate. The youth risk behavior survey has already gone down.

Yes. Do this in Crozet.
We talk about this A LOT. Imagine the struggling tiny rural communities that border Shenandoah Natl Park getting more tourist money just by adding a bike lane. Damascus VA did this years ago with the Virginia Creeper Trail, it changed everything down there.
The rural highway that runs by my house is a well-known scenic bike route, yet the county has made ZERO alterations to the road infrastructure to support and encourage bikers. It’s awful to see bikers sharing the road with large trucks that have to cross the lane line to move past them. What a miss.
