It’s SAD and PATHETIC that 86 Democrats in the House voted to embarrass the incoming Mayor of New York. @budzinski.house.gov if this is how you show party loyalty then don’t expect your constituents to be loyal to you.

I am once again urging the tech workers of America to form a union
The grind culture that birthed many Big Tech companies from Google to Amazon is back.
As the AI race heats up, startups are promoting hardcore cultures like “996,” or working 9 a.m. to 9 p.m., six days a week.

Why these companies insist on a 72-hour work week
Start-ups are promoting hardcore cultures such as “996,” meaning working from 9 a.m. to 9 p.m. six days a week, as they race to compete in AI.

Any American medium that fails to cover the largest protests in American history is failing in the basic mission of informing the public about the facts.

Trump's latest act as Dear Leader of Congress was to push through legislation that pulls back spending that was already approved, including funding for the Corporation for Public Broadcasting. #Trump #PBS #Elmo #SesameStreet #PublicTelevision #Congress #Medicaid #Immigration

This is tied up in the idea that in the United States there are no poor people, there are just temporarily embarrassed millionaires (to quote Steinbeck). The right in the US has done very well in selling the myth of the American Dream, and mostly to the detriment of those dreaming of it.
It is extremely frustrating to talk about something like a wealth cap tied to 100x the minimum wage over a lifetime career, and people’s kneejerk reaction is “but what if that affects me?” and I can promise you that you aren’t making $180million (to use California as an example)

We’ve bombed Iran. And dismantled our joint terrorism task force. And sent a third of the FBI to help ICE. And gutted the National Security Council. And a drunk guy is in charge at the pentagon. And our intelligence allies probably won’t share intel with us. Because people couldn’t vote for a woman.

So Mister “Art of the Deal” failed miserably… again, then dragged us into a war with Iran. And we are in a war whether it’s declared or not.
I guess when your incompetence helps kill a million Americans in your first term, you have to find ways to outdo yourself in your second.

This is what America's conservative "Christians" are doing to the planet's most vulnerable children.
I know this is brutal to look at, my friends, but we all need to face reality and bear witness to what happens when greedy billionaires cut off aid to the world's poorest children.
How callous do you have to be to let children suffer and die to line the pockets of the wealthy and well-connected?

Rural communities in Central and Southern Illinois deserve reliable, timely mail delivery. I’m standing up against efforts to privatize the USPS that would hurt hardworking postal employees and lead to even more delays.

Last night, House Republicans passed a budget proposal that rips healthcare and food away from working families. I voted no because I’m not willing to cut a deal to prop up billionaires and wealthy corporations on the backs of working people – not today, not ever.

Donald Trump and Elon Musk can afford to blithely dismantle the healthcare of America's veterans at the VA.
As two rich draft-dodgers, they never need worry about getting help with treatment for military injuries.
