If you're 60, 69.1% of all job growth since your birth occurred under Democratic administrations.
If you're 45, that number is 74.7%.
If you're under 28, the number is 100%.
Happy Labor Day.

Thank you Stephen Colbert for your willingness to speak truth to power.

A reminder that Brazil arrested and charged their former dictator Bolsonaro with planning a coup and trying to overturn the 2022 elections in their country.
If only the United States had done the same instead of giving the plotter of a coup full totalitarian power of the govt.

“Public service carries with it the responsibility of identification. Anonymity for state officers is not consistent with the requirements of transparency and accountability in a democracy.”
Folks, it’s free. Learn. Please.
