BREAKING: A bill banning all individual stock trades in Congress has been reintroduced by a bipartisan group of lawmakers. The TRUST Act would force members, spouses & dependents to put many investments in a blind trust.

As you commemorate #MLKDay, please remember my mother, as well. She was the architect of the King Legacy and founder of The Martin Luther King, Jr. Center, which she founded less than three months after Daddy was assassinated. Without #CorettaScottKing, there would be no MLK Day. #MLKDay2023

The canonization of MLK reminds us of his heroic status as a civil rights leader, but in some ways it’s led to the sanitization of his message.

“TGIF” doesn’t mean the same to workers in the service industry, many of whom are about to start the busiest parts of their weeks while they ensure YOU get your table served, drinks at the bar, and coffee made on the weekend. S/O TO THE SERVICE INDUSTRY ON FRIDAY!

More than half a million workers are on strike across the UK today, the biggest strike in a decade. Schools are closed, railroads are halted, and government offices are empty. The unions are striking for better pay with the cost of living soaring.

As a small slice of the DC beltway tunes into the #StateOfTheUnion for a night full of backpatting and self congratulation, let’s remember millions of Americans don’t HAVE a union, and millions more are one bad day away from homelessness. We need UBI and universal housing NOW 🗣
