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.

I feel like you would appreciate the home Eagles All-Pro LB Zack Baun (Go Birds 🦅) purchased near his WI home town, the former home of architect Erich Gnant:

Can confirm! One of the Trumpiest of Trump houses on my running route was suspiciously absent of every single one of their usual 8 strong array of MAGA flags yesterday morning. It was thrilling.

A ray of light this morning after the Senate’s unforgivable late night capitulation.
The Supreme Court on Monday rejected a call to overturn its landmark decision that legalized same-sex marriage nationwide.

This is the message of a failed, feckless, and leaderless party. We need a party with backbone, and the only path to it is through a cleansing primary season. If your Dem is up for reelection, and you aren't damn sure they're fighting the fascists with everything they've got, primary the bastard.

Sanders: if you vote yes, 15M Americans lose healthcare and 50K will die. Do you think it’s funny? Senate will not approve ACA and President would never sign it.

The Democratic Party is an absolute disgrace.
So Democrats get:
1. A CR that will prevent the GOP from facing the wrath of Americans for a shutdown over the holidays
2. A coupon for one (1) meaningless ACA vote that will fail
3. An end to the illegal RIF/SNAP moves that are already before the courts
Those all seem like wins for the GOP.

Every single Democratic senator that votes to cave on this should be immediately ejected from the party, and the national party should immediately start running primary candidates in their districts.
There is no bipartisanship possible with traitors and fascists. You either fight, or die.

BREAKING: After months of stonewalling by Starbucks, unionized baristas just voted 92% to authorize a ULP strike unless Starbucks finalizes fair contracts & stops union busting.
If forced, our baristas will strike in dozens of cities on November 13 – the company's busiest sales day of the year.

It would, but I’m not holding my breath.
It would be nice if the sheer scale of the wipeout made a lot of people in government and around government pause and think to themselves “what happens to me if Democrats get subpoena power next year” when faced with illegal directives from a rotting administrative corpse
