Want to get Americans off SNAP? If the minimum wage had kept up with inflation and productivity, it would be $26 an hour, and that alone would lift 23 million workers off food stamps overnight.

@SaveStandard Two weeks too many.

@JBPritzker Can Illinois deploy our national guard to protect our citizens “from” ICE and the federal government? We are being attacked by the feds. How can we protect ourselves?

Chicago’s mayor deployed every salt truck in the city to block ICE last night. Because when the forecast calls for ICE, you salt the roads until it melts. ❄️🧂

By dawn today, IDOT plows and salt trucks were out on I-294, the Edens, and I-94 — crawling shoulder to shoulder, jamming every lane into Chicago. A wall of trucks, moving slow, making it clear: ICE isn’t welcome here.

Wow.

And now comes the Iranian retaliation. And that is what he really wanted all along.

BREAKING: RFK Jr. says he’s going to “study” the safety of abortion medications like mifepristone. This drug has already been authorized by the FDA. It is safe and effective. We must call out these attacks on settled science.

This water is being stupidly wasted by Trump. Not a drop will go to fires. It only means farmers will have less water this summer when they need it.

If there is one clip EVERY AMERICAN should watch today it is this piece from the New York Times.

Please bookmark it because in months to come it will become more and more relevant.

After clashing w/ far-right conspiracy propagandist Elon Musk, the highest ranking career official at the Treasury Department, David Lebryk, is departing. Musk is seeking access to sensitive payment systems that the US government uses to disburse trillions of dollars every year.

it’s not about the app. it’s abt America wanting to control EVERYTHING. it’s abt hypocrisy: claiming TikTok is a threat to our data when meta, google, & apple take MORE of our data than TikTok did. it’s abt social media companies being in bed with the gov. it’s abt censorship.

Health Insurance was not always "for profit". That started during Reagan, not surprisingly, when Blue Cross went from "not for profit" to "for profit". That's when insurance went from a means to process medical claims to a system to withhold care and let people die for profits.

Congratulations Connor! Well deserved kid. Keep on being you and great things are coming your way. #ChargeOn

Do you know how much CEO pay has skyrocketed since 1978?

100%? 500%?

Try 1,085%

Meanwhile, the $7.25/hr fed. minimum wage hasn't budged in 15 years and the tipped min. wage has been $2.13/hr since 1991.

This is what I mean when I say the system is rigged.

[Treason Stickers @treasonstickers]

Trump is dismantling the department of education for 4 reasons:

1. Uneducated people vote for republicans

2. To allow red states to white wash history

3. To funnel tax dollars into private for-profit Christian schools that promote the patriarchy

4. Project 2025 said to do it

2024: If trickle-down has wrecked the middle class, blame Libs.
