I’ve been in or around politics for over a half-century now.

I’ve watched as corporations and the super-rich flooded D.C. with campaign cash and ransacked our system.

It won't be easy, but here’s how we break the corporate oligarchy and return power to the people.

Google trying to censor my email?
I've received HRC daily emails for years. Today it was flagged.
Thank you @hcrichardson.bsky.social for standing as a shining example of a true American.

I just learned this from The Daily Beans. Dept of Education is trying to designate nursing as an "unskilled profession". That designation would disqualify nursing classes as being eligible for student loans. Please take a minute to contact your congress persons.

Pritzker: "Imagine it. Children who woke up that morning, expectant with joy & excitement to put on their costumes & celebrate with their neighbors in what they thought was a safe place at their homes. Armed, masked agents, terrorizing innocent people, especially children, is unconscionable."

Wow! It’s not even close. Food banks can’t keep up with the need…

Question: “How long is this sustainable.”

Food bank director: “It’s not… for every meal that a food bank provides, the SNAP program provides nine. There’s no way we can meet that gap.”

Hmmmm. I might want to look up this study. It definitely tracks with lifelong empirical experience.
Thoughts?
Dale Spender's study in 1980 found when women made up about 17% of a room, men assessed the gender balance as equal. And when women spoke 30% of the time, men assessed that women dominated the conversation

I think about this in relation to so much these days

I'm rooting for you Canada! I hope you also learned that white supremacy is still lurking and very dangerous. Root it out while you band together and become more independent.
