The Supposed Labor Shortage

[Pat Just Pat 🍉 @PatTheSocialist]

Nina lost because money buys elections & mainstream media is complicit for corporate candidates.

Same shit, different day.

Blaming the left, FTV, or MPP is just silly scapegoating.

We need election reform, ranked choice voting, trustworthy national media, & viable 3rd parties.

[Nina Turner @ninaturner]

Giving up is easy.

But nothing good ever comes without a struggle.

Today, we stand up, dust ourselves off, and get back in the ring. We pick up where we left off on this justice journey and continue to fight for human dignity, prosperity, and an America as good as its promise.

Let me tell you. People are sick and tired of seeing day after day, the rich getting richer while everyone else struggles just to keep their heads above water. People want action. And that's exactly what we're going to give them with this budget reconciliation legislation.

[Nina Turner @ninaturner]

We knew this would be an uphill battle from the moment we started this campaign.

While we didn’t cross the river, we inspired thousands to dream bigger and expect more.

We couldn’t overcome the influence of dark money, but we left our mark on OH11 and this nation.

If Shontel Brown wins it’s fair to say she bought the seat. No way she’s even competitive without a quadrillion dollars in corporate cash. Gross system

[Greta Thunberg @GretaThunberg]

Wildfires, floods, droughts, heatwaves and other (un)natural disasters rage all over the world.
Many now ask "What will it take for people in power to act?".

Well, it will many things, but above all it will take: massive pressure from media and massive pressure from the public.

[Nina Turner @ninaturner]

If you're more concerned by the colorful way I approach those in power than by the fact that millions are dying of poverty, you must not know what it's like to miss a meal or sleep in your car.

I won't tiptoe around the truth.

I'm turning over tables on behalf of the poor.

[Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez @AOC]

Give @CoriBush her flowers 💐 she just paved the way for 11 million renters in the United States.

Servant leadership in action.

[Greta Thunberg @GretaThunberg]

Some people make it seem as if we’re not doing enough to stop the climate crisis. But that’s not true.

Because to not do enough, you have to do something. And the truth is that we are basically not doing anything apart from “creative carbon accounting” and creating loopholes.1/2

40 years of declining wages and worker productivity funneled to Wall Street. The best way to honor the PATCO strike is a more militant Labor Movement for all workers. The strike is our tactic. Solidarity is our power. #1u

The new 60-day CDC eviction moratorium carries steep criminal penalties for individual landlords who break the law:

- Potential $100k fine and 1 year in jail if eviction doesn't result in death
- Up to $250k fine and 1 year in jail if evicted person dies

Why did people vote for Jill Stein, the only 2016 candidate who supported:

-Medicare for All
-Green New Deal
-Cancel student debt
-$15 minimum wage
-Housing for all
-Cut Pentagon budget 50%
-Path to citizenship for undocumented immigrants
-Reparations
-Ranked-choice voting

[Renters Rising @Renters_Rising]

“Don’t believe the hype!”

Last night, we were with @MondaireJones and @AOC as they urged the public to pressure the White House to extend the eviction moratorium, in addition to calling on Congress to reconvene for a legislative fix.

BREAKING NEWS: Trumper Mike Lindell announces that MyPillow has already lost over $65 million over his support of Trump and his Big Lie — after being dropped by America’s biggest retailers, including Bed, Bath & Beyond, Sam’s Club, and Kohl’s. RT if you think he DESERVES it!

[Congresswoman Cori Bush (Archived) @RepCori]

I urge President Biden to extend relief to our neighbors who right now face eviction. Our sole focus must be keeping people housed and we must do so with the urgency this moment deserves.

[Cori Bush @CoriBush]

On Friday night, I came to the Capitol with my chair. I refused to accept that Congress could leave for vacation while 11 million people faced eviction.

For 5 days, we’ve been out here, demanding that our government acts to save lives.

Today, our movement moved mountains.
