You can unfollow us if you want, but it won’t stop us from showing off all of President Biden’s Wins.
We’re dedicating this page to re-electing President Biden. Retweet and follow if you’re in.
An entire small-town police department in Kansas raided a newspaper's offices and its reporters' homes because the paper got a tip about a well-connected person's DUI

It's clear how much we revile poor people, particularly poor Black people, that so many are framing this as a story about homelessness and not a vigilante killing someone whose behavior he found distasteful. In other words: Strangling is a rational response to homelessness.
1. This week, a federal investigation found that three Kentucky-based McDonald’s franchises illegally employed at least 305 children.
Two ten-year-olds were working cleaning and taking drive-thru orders until 2 AM
And they weren't even paid!
I have yet to hear a real explanation from any official hesitating to condemn the killing of Jordan Neely about what makes condemning this violence so “complicated.”
Killing is wrong. Killing the poor is wrong. Killing the mentally ill is wrong. Why is that so hard to say?
It’s a bad day for the bad guys and @TheRickWilson couldn’t be happier… but wait, there's more! There's a layer of people, from Roger Stone to Alex Jones to Steve Bannon, who were giving these street thugs their orders. Next up, Donald J. Trump.
Yesterday, Republicans accused Joe Biden of committing a very serious crime. They didn’t present any evidence. Not one shred of evidence.
Just because they can.
People w/ mental health conditions make up 53% of the population at Rikers.
On average, they are held 61% longer.
We pay $556,000 per person annually to keep them in jail. 90% on Rikers are held without conviction.
By contrast, it costs ~$42k to put them in supportive housing.
It’s probably not great when five people can decide what rights we have, and they are allowed to take as much free stuff as they want from oligarchs with no accountability.
Clarence Thomas is corrupt as hell and the corruption at the republican Supreme Court stinks to high heaven. Thomas should resign immediately and I urge all my colleagues to demand the same.
