I’m working on building long-term organizing power across Missouri as ED of AmplifyMO Actions. In 2024—our first year—we helped county committees open 6 offices, hire staff & reach over 90,000 voters.
I'm looking for 1,000 sustaining donors to keep investing in democratic county committees.👇🏾

Instacart got caught running real-time price experiments on shoppers — same groceries, different prices.
Workers know this game well: Instacart’s algorithm does the same thing to their pay.

Josh Hawley’s “health care plan” is pure trickle-down: families pay $25,000 a year in medical bills (a third of their income!) and get a $3,000 tax break later.
This isn't a plan—it's a coupon handed out too late to actually provide relief from the high cost of health insurance.

The Missouri Republican is proposing making it easier for more tax payers to deduct medical expenses — and has pitched Donald Trump on the idea.

It’s funny that the news wants to have the conversion about Trump running for a third term…. after all these years, they still don’t understand this man… He is not running for a third term. He just will not leaving office. 🙄

Missouri Republicans must be REALLY SCARED that Missourians are fed up with them overturning the will of the people all the time & forcing a mid-decade gerrymander that eliminates the congressional seat held by the former chair of the Black Caucus in Congress. Just blasting our phones with lies.

I get over a dozen a day. From generic and nebulous organizations hoping I’m so pissed off about President They’re Eating The Dogs that I’ll give them money….and it’s infuriating.
Aside from the cowardice on issues of importance and reliance on anti-trump sentiment to motivate voters, the consultants that recommend this garbage that inundates our phones, to candidates and political organizations are what’s killing the Democratic Party.

Mine too! I saw it up close and personal in the MO state legislature.
Democrats would come to them with proposals (often uncontroversial) for how to fix government programs that Republicans would complain about, and they would literally say shit like “that doesn’t work for our narrative.”

My entire life Republicans’ game has been to stymy, undercut & undermine when Democrats have power so they can point to the resulting failings as evidence progressive policies are dysfunctional & then they get power & aggressively gut every social gain & Dems are still like ‘maybe we can negotiate’
