Wal-Mart is a disgusting company.

In a new lawsuit, @USEEOC alleges that @Walmart violated federal law when it gave a Black female employee an unsanitary lactation space based upon her race + failed to promote her based on sex stereotypes about mothers with small children

Don't be angry at the dude who got a 50 cent raise at Roy Rogers and a $1,400 government check last year. Be angry that CEOs make 350 times more than the average worker and 745 billionaires became over $2 trillion richer during the pandemic while corporations make record profits.

[David Dayen @ddayen]

Today, in partnership with @Groundwork, we launch a special issue of @theprospect about the supply chain. Every weekday for the next two weeks we'll look at one aspect of the supply chain, & explain how the pillars of neoliberalism broke it.

Biden’s decision is something our generation will have to live with for decades.

The makeup of the @SCOTUS has to reflect our nation if we’re going to build a society that will support our communities. We need @POTUS to #ExpandTheCourt and put more progressives on the @SCOTUS.

[Ezra Levin @ezralevin]

@sahilkapur So it's been a year of serious debate inside the caucus on filibuster. At this point, what excuse could a participant in that debate have for regurgitating false information that's been repeatedly debunked?

[Warren Gunnels @GunnelsWarren]

We actually live in a country where 1 man can make $32.6 billion in 1 day and pay no federal income taxes in a given year, while 58 Senators believe it's too radical to increase the federal minimum wage to $15 an hour over the next 5 years. You really can't make this stuff up.

[Derrick Crowe @electcrowe]

Well well well🤣

Biden will announce today his administration will distribute a half-billion free at-home Covid tests this winter. The administration will launch a website where Americans can go to get the rapid tests delivered to their homes for free starting in January, the White House says.

[Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez @AOC]

We can change decisions and conditions. We just did with the idea of sending out millions of free at-home COVID tests - initially laughed at, yet now it’s happening.

We can do it again. Tens of millions will get relief. It’s time for @POTUS to #CancelStudentDebt.

NEW from me + @ArthurDelaneyHP.

Manchin’s private comments to colleagues about big policies in BBB: He told senators parents just use CTC money to buy drugs. And Americans would use paid leave to hunting.

Coal miners' union urges Manchin to reconsider opposition to Biden plan https://t.co/w5QoJKeG73

[Mondaire Jones @MondaireJones]

First, the flagship newspaper for West Virginia. Now, the coal miners’ union. It’s almost like the @DataProgress poll showing 68 percent of West Virginians support Build Back Better is more reflective of what West Virginians want than what Joe Manchin is saying.

This makes it urgent that Pfizer and Moderna be compelled to share their vaccine recipes and know-how right now. These are the only vaccines that can help stop Omicron infections, and there are at least 120 manufacturers in Asia, Africa, and Latin America that could make them.

[Derrick Crowe @electcrowe]

@JohnCFSS Pretty sure actually

[Derrick Crowe @electcrowe]

@JohnCFSS I wanna say onslought?

[Derrick Crowe @electcrowe]

So we have a viciously contagious variant, education debt payment demands, and the end of the child tax credit program all at once.

I would love to be part of a political party that wants to win and wield power.

[Derrick Crowe @electcrowe]

@khope99 @AOC @POTUS Biden could just do the education debt forgiveness with a stroke of the pen. It's not either/or.

[Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez @AOC]

With BBB delayed, Child Tax Credits will expire and student loans will restart within a matter of weeks. Working families could lose thousands of $/mo just as prices are rising.

That alone is reason for @POTUS to act on student loans ASAP - w/ either moratorium or cancellation.

[Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez @AOC]

The fact that Biden has the power to provide student debt relief to millions, had to be forced into extending the eviction moratorium,& has yet to aggressively campaign against the filibuster shows us he has more power than he’s using.

It’s time to take off the gloves & govern.
