Rest in Peace “Savy”. We all
have different thoughts on what the afterlife is, but I think we can all agree Stan Savran deserves all the best of what is there. Good hockey talk, Stan.

[Callum Stephen (He/Him) @AutisticCallum_]

Autistic people are often misperceived as rude, because we tend to only give praise/credit where we feel it’s due, and don’t give (what we feel is) undeserved flattery. This can be controversial, as it’s a social custom to offer insincere praise to people *just* to win them over.

You can't tweet Elon's personal location data, but he can sure as shit sell yours.

Last night, the Senate passed an $858 billion annual military budget. That's $45 billion more than Biden even asked for...

Endless money for war. No money for hungry kids or a burning planet.

[Robert Reich @RBReich]

In case anyone needed a reminder, the Republican Party’s economic record is atrocious. All but four of the last 17 recessions over the past century have come under Republican presidents.

The idea that the GOP is some force of economic strength is absurd.

FACT: None of the journalists who were suspended did this.

He's lying.

[Dan Rather @DanRather]

Apparently it’s “Free speech for me. Not for thee.”

[I Smoked Lindsey Graham @BlackKnight10k]

Let all the nazis, white supremacists, and right wing nutjobs back on the platform then ban all the journalists. This is how 1940's Germany would do free speech.

@elonmusk Just find me 11,780 votes

[I Smoked Lindsey Graham @BlackKnight10k]

The vote didn't go the way he wanted so he just demanded everyone vote again until he gets the result he wants. Who does that remind you of?

Kroger projects $4.9 billion in profits in 2022.

Now it's purchasing Albertons, the second largest grocery store chain, for $25 billion.

Albertsons previously acquired Safeway for $9.2 billion.

Why are grocery prices up? Grocery store goliaths are buying the competition.

[Robert Reich @RBReich]

Corporate profits only accounted for roughly 11% of price growth from 1979 to 2019.

Today, record corporate profits account for 53.9% of price increases.

Folks, corporate greed is driving inflation, not workers asking for better wages.

[Robert Reich @RBReich]

Forgive me for sounding like a broken record, but how on Earth are we supposed to believe we “can’t afford” paid family leave, universal pre-K, or climate action when our politicians are willing to pass an $858 billion annual defense budget without batting an eye?

[John Fetterman @JohnFetterman]

Our nation’s minimum wage of $7.25 an hour is truly shitty.

That’s the tweet.

[Robert Reich @RBReich]

Labor costs increased 5.3% over the past year. But prices rose 7.1%.

The real purchasing power of American workers continues to drop.

This is absolutely not the time for more interest rate hikes that make it even harder for working people to keep the lights on. Hello?

[Robert Reich @RBReich]

The first Gen Z Congress member was denied a D.C. apartment due to bad credit.

Freshman reps don’t get a paycheck until February even though they start working on January 3rd.

Congress is inaccessible to those who don't have wealth.

It’s designed to keep working people out.

[Robert Reich @RBReich]

The fact that the federal minimum wage has stagnated at $7.25/hour since 2009 is atrocious.

But in reality, it's actually far worse than that.

The federal minimum wage is worth 28% less today than it was worth in 2009.

It’s worth 41% less than in 1968.

An absolute disgrace.

[Lakota Man @LakotaMan1]

Your daily reminder that America’s Founding Fathers believed, religiously, in the separation of church and state. Also, “In God We Trust” was not printed onto U.S. currency — until 1957.
