I’m surprised more people aren’t talking about Don Jr receiving a massive loan for his startup from the Pentagon. I guess when there’s so much corruption some things fly under the radar?

Powerful to rally today with several hundred teachers, families, and community members in support of West Contra County teachers!

Our community supports the strike and will be out in the streets every day until teachers get a fair contract.

Justyna Faszcza highlighted the consequences of one of Europe’s most restrictive systems: “We have lost Izabela, Dorota, Justyna and others. Criminalisation forces women to travel abroad, and only those who can afford it are safe. ‘My Voice My Choice’ offers dignity, equality, and real support.”

According to a new study, members of Congressional leadership perform 47% better in stock market trades than their rank-and-file peers, thanks to access to nonpublic information.

Today would be a great day to ban ALL elected officials from trading stock, don't you think?

Mmmm, musings (no need to reply!).

In total, I earned (for this year) $900 in total, from Patreon. This is for ONE year, not per month.

Give or take, plus royalties from books and stuff - $1000 odd. In total. I am not counting per month.

This is not a way to earn a living.

My constituent, Wilmer, was mauled by an ICE attack dog despite the fact that, as he has consistently explained, he was not resisting arrest or trying to flee—his wife and young children, all U.S. citizens, were forced to watch helplessly as Wilmer was violently attacked and dragged away.

Since we can’t ever expect Mike Johnson to do the right thing, we’re forcing a vote on extending ACA tax credits. And we only need four more members to sign the petition to make it happen.

Help us move the needle!
