Yes, I do think anyone who works 8–9 hours a day should be able to afford rent, bills, and groceries with their paycheck alone, no matter what job they do. That's kind of the whole point of having a freaking job, and I can't believe this is considered a radical position.
My wife and I got into it last night about the grocery bill.
I pulled up an old Target order from February 2020.
28 items. $64.50.
Added every single one back to the cart just to see.
$158.30.
Same 28 items. Same store. Same cart.
$93.80 more.
In five years.
We didn’t buy more.
Didn’t upgrade anything.
Didn’t add a single extra item.
Just needed the same things we always needed.
They told us inflation was transitory. They told us it was under control. They told us the economy was strong.
Our cart didn’t get any of those memos.
145% increase in five years.
Not one member of Congress has looked at a grocery receipt in decades.
And it shows.
Fun Fact: The President of the goddam United States paid nearly $6 million in damages today to a woman he raped. Once upon a time, this would have been the only news you heard.
🚨BREAKING: ICE agents are now kidnapping Native grandmothers in Chaparral, New Mexico.
A Native woman pulled into a gas station because she realized she was being followed by a truck. Moments later, ICE agents surrounded her and escorted her to one of their vehicles.
This is a woman whose ancestors lived on this land for thousands of years before the United States even existed.
A Native woman, on her own ancestral land, being treated like a foreigner by the federal government in 2026.
The Fourth Amendment protects people from being unreasonably stopped or detained, and the federal government cannot lawfully target people simply because of their race or ethnicity.
So why did ICE agents stalk and kidnap this woman?
This stopped being about immigration a long time ago.
🚨BREAKING: ICE agents were filmed assaulting, handcuffing, and kidnapping a U.S. citizen in Passaic, New Jersey… while refusing to even look at the ID he repeatedly begged them to check.
A man is pleading with federal agents to verify who he is…
And they refused.
Instead, one agent says, “We need to get him on the ground,” puts him in a chokehold, throws him to the ground, and multiple agents pile on top of him before handcuffing him, and throwing him into their vehicle.
Under the Fourth Amendment, the government cannot arrest, or seize someone, without probable cause that they have committed, are committing, or are about to commit an offense that authorizes the arrest.
U.S. citizens are also not required to carry identification unless they’re driving a motorized vehicle.
And if federal agents are refusing to verify someone’s identity before arresting them, then they are openly ignoring the constitution.
Which should terrify every American.
Because that means no one is safe from being kidnapped by the government… and disappeared.
Every agent involved should be publicly identified, and DHS should be forced to explain why they believed they had the legal authority to seize someone, while refusing to verify who he was.
This cannot become normal.
MAGA 2021: “Don’t tell me to wear a mask.” “Don’t force a vaccine.” “Don’t tell me to stay home.”
MAGA 2026: “Just follow orders.” “Have your papers ready.” “Comply. Don’t die.”
ICE just shot and killed a 26-year-old Colombian worker in Maine.
He had a Social Security Number.
He was driving to work.
Now, the community is taking the streets:
“No KKK, no fascist USA, no ICE!”
STOP EXECUTING OUR COMMUNITY MEMBERS.
ICE has fatally shot 11 people since Donald Trump's second term began.
These are not isolated incidents. They are the predictable result of a cruel, violent system.
Abolish ICE.
Food trucks were supposed to be the budget option. Now they cost the same as sit-down restaurants. Eating on a sidewalk shouldn’t cost restaurant prices.
This morning in Biddeford, Maine, a 26-year-old man said goodbye to his wife and daughter and left for work. Moments later he was dead, shot in the head by ICE agents, the second man ICE has killed in six days.
ICE is killing our neighbors. ICE cannot be reformed. Abolish ICE.
