The Department of Labor is investigating 600+ cases of illegal child labor in the US.

Massive companies like General Mills, Walmart, and Ford have all been implicated.

Why is this happening? Greed.

Corporations would rather exploit children than pay adult workers fairly.

Reminder: Raising the debt ceiling does not increase spending or the federal debt. It simply allows the government to pay bills it has already taken on — and defaulting on the debt would be catastrophic.

[David Cay Johnston @DavidCayJ]

The measure of a free society is not how much it builds up billionaires, but how much it cares for the least among us.

[Common Defense @commondefense]

Marjorie and House Republicans know that their disastrous plan to default on America’s debt is extremely unpopular so now they want to distract everyone. Head Silly Goose In Charge indeed.

[Chris Hayes @chrislhayes]

Just a random question, the answer to which should be in every piece on the debt ceiling nonsense: when Republicans had complete control of government in 2017-2018 did they cut or increase spending?

Tampa's Pride event has been canceled due to Florida's drag/pride ban signed by DeSantis. This was always the intent.

The same Republicans who are now crying about the deficit are the same people who voted for ~$2T in tax cuts for the wealthy and corporations.

Don't be fooled.

The deficit is a political tool used by Republicans to block programs that benefit millions of Americans.

"Are you going to wear a mask forever?"

Am I going to use seatbelts forever? Am I going to have mammograms and Pap tests forever? Am I going to floss my teeth forever? Am I going to eat my vegetables forever?

Masks aren't a hardship. 1/4

The next time you hear conservatives use any of the following terms, ask for a definition. They won't have any.

"Woke."

"Critical race theory."

"Cancel culture."

"Socialism."

They just want to stoke culture wars to divert attention from economic looting and oligarchy.

[Alex Vindman 🇺🇸 @AVindman]

There’s no way you are this ignorant of how vital Ukraine winning the war is to European security & stability and to US national security the world over. So then you must be a political hack that’s prepared to trade the US good for your points with fringe MAGA isolationists. Sad.

[Mehdi Hasan @mehdirhasan]

I never thought I’d see again in my lifetime a personality cult to match the Trump/MAGA cult of the past eight years… but the past 48 hours on this site has made me think again.

The Musk kool-aid drinkers are truly a sight to behold.

"The doctrine of small governments and giant corporations is a plutocrat's charter - a recipe for regulatory capture so grotesque it is indistinguishable from farce." - @doctorow
It's another right-libertarian scam.

“I think the most stupid decision that the Supreme Court ever made and one of the most damaging was to rule that corporations are people and that major corporations now can give unlimited supplies of money to candidates."

[Timothy Caulfield @CaulfieldTim]

Do not trust anyone who denies the existence of harmful lies.

Or who wants to dodge the marketplace of ideas. Being shown you are wrong isn't suppression.

Sorry, but lies exist: Sandy Hook conspiracy, the Big Lie, Holocaust denial, vaccines cause autism, etc., etc.

[Republicans against Trump @RpsAgainstTrump]

Just in the last 24 hours:
-MTG openly called for secession (McCarthy refuses to condemn it)
-A group of 8 House Republicans proposed a resolution to stop all aid to Ukraine
-George Santos admitted he's a "terrible liar" (McCarthy still stands by him)
-Trump again said he's siding with Putin over US intelligence
-Ron DeSantis blamed President Biden for Putin's decision to invade Ukraine.
-Kevin McCarthy has granted pro-Putin Tucker Carlson access to all of the Capitol security footage from January 6.

This radical Republican party must lose every election until they change course.

[George Takei @GeorgeTakei]

So Fox News manipulated their viewers for ratings and amplified lies about the 2020 elections in order to keep them loyal and watching?

I am SHOCKED. Shocked, I say!
