So... ummm... has anyone stated the obvious? They are increasing funding for military & policing to pounce on the inevitable social ramifications of the forced decline in quality of life from the institutional neglect & genocidal policies.
We have the Senate, the House and the Presidency.
Stop negotiating with a losing insurrectionist party who are trying to sabotage our democracy, pass the infrastructure package through reconciliation and abolish the filibuster.
This week in Congress:
Dems: Passed $1.9T COVID package to deliver stimulus checks (w/ dependents!), cut child poverty in half, extend $300 UI, prevent cuts in state + local services, largest-ever investment in Native communities, etc
GOP: Took a week to read The Cat in the Hat
Some of the same folks who said “defunding huge PD budgets & shifting $ to schools is too hard to explain” are now saying “Well $1400 is actually $2k if you recall the $600 from a diff president, carry the 1- yes I know ads showed $2k checks, but thresholds-”
Just help people!
I get it, but some of us just spent the last 2 years taking stances that have led to repeated attempts on our lives - for demanding guaranteed healthcare, immigrant justice, etc.
Sorry if this lacks empathy, but it’s a privilege if this is their first time. They can do one vote.
@lbst201@hugoandalice It's honestly so hard. At times I feel bad because I'd like a relationship with my mom, but then I realize that we simply share none of the same values and I wouldn't want her around my kids unsupervised. Trump has been a very effective divider - has shown us the worst in people.
🚨 🚨 McConnell just placed a giant ad buy in Georgia. And I can tell you why - internal polls show Sen. Perdue in BIG trouble.
So today, a HUGE goal: raise $500K for Jon Ossoff. He’s short on $$ for his turnout effort. Folks, if we win GA, it’s OVER.
