📌If you told me 40 years ago, that Republicans were going to be citing the cost of a Thanksgiving dinner from Walmart as a quality-of-life enhancer, I would have thrown up in my mouth a little, and told you the future for working Americans was going to be desperate and bleak.

But here we are.

Schumer needs to go. He is not a leader and millions of Americans are going to pay for his incompetence.

This is really telling! It doesn't work like that anymore, bud. None of it works like that — even if it did on Jan. 19.

Democrats can't defeat Trump-MAGA authoritarianism without an agenda that stands squarely on the side of working people.

We need a pro-worker, pro-democracy, anti-establishment movement that will take on oligarchy like never before.

It starts with the party rejecting Big Money.

The average SNAP benefit per month is $177 a person.

The average ACA benefit per month is up to $550 a person.

People want us to hold the line for a reason. This is not a matter of appealing to a base. It’s about people’s lives.

And working people want leaders whose word means something to them.

Today, Mike Johnson will keep the House adjourned for the 94th day out of the last 106.

12 days of work in 106 days.

With full pay and benefits.

The senate has been working, so this is not about the shutdown.

It is about avoiding a vote to release the Epstein files.

Gavin Newsom just said the quiet part out loud:

“All this anti-woke stuff is just anti-Black. Period. Full stop.”

And he’s right. “Anti-woke” was never about ideas, it was a marketing campaign to sanitize racism, roll back progress, and make bigotry sound intellectual.

The richest man on earth owns X.

The second richest man on earth is about to acquire TikTok and his family could soon own both Paramount and Warner Bros.

The third richest man owns Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp.

The fourth richest man owns The Washington Post.

See the problem here?

@schumer.senate.gov please take your thumb off the scale with regards to the Senate race in Maine. Your interference isn’t wanted nor needed. The voters in Maine are perfectly capable of selecting their next Senator. Graham Platner is the right choice, Janet Mills cannot beat Susan Collins.

The 400 richest Americans are now worth a record $6.6 trillion.

The entire bottom 50% of America is worth just $4.2 trillion.

Read that back.

When 400 people control more wealth than half a country’s population, we have a very serious problem.

I co-wrote Trump’s first anti-terrorism plan in 2017-18. He’s not trying to stop “left-wing” terrorism. He is staging it.

His troop deployments are a false flag — meant to provoke a response in order to justify harsh crackdowns.

This is now very obvious.

... I have questions:

1️⃣ What the hell is a “tariff shelf”?

2️⃣ Does Trump think he can spend tariff money on whatever he wants?

3️⃣ Remind me, who actually pays for these tariffs?

He really doesn’t know how *any* of this works.

Sorry, last thing:

4️⃣ Which shelf are the Epstein files sitting on?

Trump withholding federal funding for the Hudson Tunnels to punish his political opponents is a blatantly illegal action that threatens nearly one hundred thousand working class jobs, wastes taxpayers money, and damages the safety and economic wellbeing of our nation.
