Is no one else disturbed my Microsoft having some sort of deliberation with Trump about buying TikTok US?! This is not the way that’s supposed to work.

Pretty nauseating how easily Congress rubber stamped a $4 trillion dark slush fund for Wall St as “COVID relief,” yet somehow $600 for workers in pandemic is controversial. Up close it’s staggering how much resistance there is in Washington to actually helping people directly.

Is poverty not violence? Is mass incarceration not violence? Is denying healthcare not violence? Is racist policing not violence? Is endless warfare not violence? Is colonialism not violence? Is destroying our environment not violence? Why is it only violence when we fight back?

Your daily reminder that Senate Republicans haven’t lifted a finger for three months to help families buy food during a pandemic but are preparing to confirm a Supreme Court nominee in less than two weeks.

"There's nothing fun or funny about these Trump rallies. They're crude, they're vicious, they're incitement, plain and simple." - my mini-rant, citing examples & studies, responding to Lara Trump's claims that Trump's rally threats are just a bit of fun.

Imagine having the power to ease the suffering of millions and failing to use it.

Do folks realize how batty it is that, 8 months in, we’re still focused on keeping restaurants open during a pandemic instead of providing $ to everyone from the restaurant owner to the dishwasher so they can stay home for a few weeks & we can stop the spread?

If we ask you to stay home we should also send you money so you can can do so.

I am being told that including another stimulus check is too expensive. Fine. Tax the rich and pay for it. Billionaires added $931 billion to their net worth during the padmemic. They can afford it. P.S. They got a $1.7 trillion tax cut. We can start there.

Watching the establishment be so desperately committed to making neoliberalism work even as everything crashes & burns around us is like watching a toddler trying to force a square block into a round hole. Except there’s also mass death & destruction.

So let me get this straight: Republican legislators want to arm teachers to protect students from school shooters, but don't want teachers to wear masks to protect students from a deadly virus?

Ending wars is good actually

A bunch of folks with MBAs, screwing up the world. #solidarity #powertothepeople #weareoursaviors

Why do we teach American slavery as the history of Black people and not as the history of white people? That’s confusing.

For everyone in WV that was hoping to get two years of free community college…..you can thank Senator Joe Manchin for killing that capability. He doesn’t want you to get an entitlement mentality. Because WV is so entitled right???

I wonder who made the decision that eyes and teeth should be separate from healthcare.
