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.
It’s about priorities.

The institutions we've relied on are falling in real time. It's time look beyond them because they aren't going to protect anyone anymore.

TBH the only thing I care about re: the Epstein files is justice for the victims no matter who that turns out to be. That said, who else is on Maxwell pardon watch with me? Because he is absolutely going to pardon her in exchange for her (made dubious by the pardon) statement that he wasn’t involved

This is essentially the “same sex marriage bans affect both straight and gay people” equally argument, but even more nefarious that cis people still get access to hormone therapy and chest surgery
"We're not saying you can't get health care because you're transgender, which would be illegal.
We're just saying we refuse to treat the conditions that cause you to be transgender. That's different and okay."
A pathetic, indefensible logical pretzel from SCOTUS

darkly funny that they probably won't be happy! just like the british transphobes when they won legal victories, their 'victory' turns to ash in their mouths because everyone decent only hates them more for it.

This morning at Dept of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) HQ in DC as mandatory return to office began, this video played on loop for ~5 mins on screens throughout the building, per agency source.
Building staff couldn’t figure out how to turn it off so sent people to every floor to unplug TVs.

Good response template here.
What did I do last week?
1. Nailed your mom
2. Nailed her again & filmed it.
3. Wiped Boogers on the windshield of one of your shitty cars.
4. Spent time with your kids since you don’t.
5. Took a shit on one of your cars.
Sincerely,
