Folks, don't believe it for a second that US automakers can't afford to pay workers better wages.
The new Republican state budget in North Carolina massively gutted the state's public records law, revoking citizens' access to legislative correspondence, documents and records. @GraigMeyer had a lot to say about it... 🔥 #ncpol
Wow, Matt Gaetz told Kevin McCarthy he wouldn't vote for any proposal that funds Ukraine, so our government is shutting down, and Gaetz only said that because Trump told him to, and Trump only said that because Putin told him to
"We can have democracy in this country, or we can have great wealth concentrated in the hands of a few, but we can't have both." –Justice Louis Brandeis
Allowing Trump to lie on @MeetThePress and leaving “fact checking” to the website is not how we should be treating a man who launched an insurrection. It’s 2023, we should have learned this lesson over 7 years. Ratings aren’t worth our democracy
Welker essentially just conceded his claim that “after birth” abortions exist and are legal. They are not “exceedingly rare”—they are not a thing. Call this talking point out as the absurd, nonsensical propaganda it is or don’t do the interview. This is pathetic and embarrassing
The US has just experienced the largest spike in child poverty since 2009.
The reason is that Republicans in Congress (plus Manchin and Sinema) refused to renew the expanded Child Tax Credit in President Biden’s American Rescue Plan.
Child poverty is a choice.
Trump said "Democrats are able to kill the baby after birth." Beyond this being a truly dumb lie, here are facts.
My baby was killed after birth because of gun violence. Republicans, by blocking gun violence prevention, apparently support killing babies after birth.
The most important least understood story in US politics today is in this age of globalization, the economy has prospered under Dems, and suffered under Rs. Repeatedly.
Of the 49m jobs created since 1989, 47m have come under Dem Presidents. 96%.

The No. 2 official in New Hampshire on Donald Trump's presidential campaign told police to kill themselves in an video shot close to the U.S. Capitol on January 6th. https://t.co/HrXLFoUsD2
Young people: The GOP is floating an amendment to raise the voting age from 18 to 25. Vivek Ramaswamy is openly promoting it. They’re scared of your votes and want to silence you. Act appropriately in 2024.
Trump now claims he has a detailed irrefutable REPORT of election fraud in Georgia.
The proof can be found in the same drawer where he hides the school transcripts that prove his exceptional intellect, & the medical records that prove he's 6'3" & weighs 239 pounds.🙄

Florida man/Alabama Senator Tommy Tuberville is blocking over 300 military appointments – threatening our national security and disrespecting our servicemembers.
BREAKING: Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas' bribes are now totaling in the millions from multiple sources - as part of what looks like a large bribery network. https://t.co/JM4nHsGKcr
FASCISM IN FLORIDA—
Ron DeSantis just removed duly-elected Orlando-area Democratic State Attorney Monique Worrell from her position. She had won her seat with over 66% of the vote.
Worrell was the only Black woman serving as State Attorney in Florida. https://t.co/95CyfyYG1y
