At an average of 12 hours a week…that comes to like $2.14 an hour…what the actual fuck?

BREAKING: @JackBox workers have walked off the job in Berkeley.

Norma Perez has worked at this location since 2008. She's been told to work under 2 names to avoid overtime pay.

She's been denied 9-15 hours of pay each week for the past 14 years, totaling up to $18,696.

As Texas Gov Abbot prepares to pardon a white man & convicted murderer for killing a peaceful BLM protestor—Texas sentences a Black man to 70 years in prison for “spitting at police” to “make an example out of him.”😳

Systemic white supremacy is thriving in the GOP. Horrific.

Oh my god.

Missouri AG just essentially banned gender affirming care for most trans adults via emergency rule.

Requires 3 years of dysphoria, 18 months of therapy sessions, doesn't allow people with autism/depression.

This is what elimination of transgender people looks like.

A primer on Mo GOP:
A) outlawed all abortions from moment of conception for rape victims
B) voted to allow children to openly carry AR-15s
C) defunded public libraries

D) All of the above. Ding ding ding (right answer)

Kevin McCarthy: the voters elected Santos, so his fraudulent ass gets to stay in Congress.
Tenn GOP: damn the voters we are kicking you out for your loud opinions we disagree with.

Maybe it’s just me but I can’t get past the fact that the FBI Director set up a phony tip line for people to report information about Brett Kavanaugh, then secretly funneled the “relevant” info to the White House, then covered it up for two years AND HE’S STILL THE FBI DIRECTOR

[Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez @AOC]

This is not okay, never has been okay, never will be okay - no matter the administration or party.

Fun Fact: Ted Cruz has voted against disaster aid for blue states five times.

HR1 is being voted on next week. McConnell calls it a "power grab" because it:

-Establishes Automatic Voter Registration
-Prevents voter purges
-Ends gerrymandering
-Expands early voting
-Takes aim at Citizens United

It is a "power grab" -- grabbing power back for the people.

BREAKING NEWS. Dateline 12/25/20 Louisville. Kentucky Colonel and Senator, Mitch McConnell, in a small gathering of mega rich donors, reaffirmed his vow to block every bill from the Democrats. "Even if I feel it's a good bill. They shall have no victories. None," McConnell said.

Dan Price announced a minimum salary of $70,000 to all of his 120 employees back in 2015.

What has happened?

• 50+ babies have been born to company employees
• Employees have lost 50 pounds, defeated cancer
• 70% paid their debts
• 10% bought homes in Seattle

Joel Osteen got $4.4million. You get $600.

It’s immoral.

[Chris Murphy 🟧 @ChrisMurphyCT]

If Democrats controlled the Senate:

- the cash payments would be $1200 not $600
- there would be $175 billion, not $25 billion, to help people pay the rent
- there would be flexible money for states and cities and bonus checks for frontline workers

Let’s win Georgia.

[Sophia Bush @SophiaBush]

For the millionth time, the cruelty is the point. The ego is insatiable. The toll? American lives. Trump is a murderer.

[Mick Gloss @MusicalMick]

That’s it. That’s the tweet of the day.

[Chris Murphy 🟧 @ChrisMurphyCT]

Constraining the powers of the Federal Reserve is NOT a small issue. It should NOT be jammed thru on a COVID relief bill.

We count on the Fed’s emergency powers to get us through economic crises. To limit these powers risks a ton of jobs and lives if another crisis hits in 2020.
