Yep.
.@marwilliamson on this week’s @AmpedUpPodcast:
“When I ran for president I saw how the system operates...and the lengths that the Democratic party will go to to nullify any voices who are willing to challenge the corporate forces that make all of this suffering inevitable.”

I’m not pretending that at all. But I don’t see where it relates to this particular man’s experience. Both can be true at the same time.

One of the worst things about extreme income inequality is how many people don’t see enough of other people’s circumstances. It’s too easy to dissociate from the reality of someone else’s life if you never see them and never know them. Empathy decreases and numbness takes over.

This is what I mean about how Americans have been trained to expect too little. Compared to other countries, the attitude of our government towards the average American is full on societal neglect.

No surprise here. I assume her connection to Shell was one of her main qualifications for the job. m.huffpost.com/us/entry/us_6…

I had a fun conversation with Ryan Knight. Thank you, Ryan...
On this week’s @AmpedUpPodcast I spoke with @MarWilliamson about what she’d like to see @JoeBiden do in his first 100 days.
We also had a spirited debate about socialism vs. capitalism and whether progressives need to form a new party.
Episode out now on all major podcast apps.

Keep saying it till they hear us. And if anyone says “OK OK I’ve heard all that,” consider repeating it once more.

This is what we have to contend with. Even when we elect great people they’re often peripheralized by the corporatist establishment. We have to know about it and yell about it. Stay strong, @RepKatiePorter! downwithtyranny.com/post/pel…

Keep ‘em honest.
"That is not an exaggeration. That is literally true. If you send Jon and Reverand to Washington, We will send you $2000 checks". - Joe Biden

The only way we’ll have a just, abundant economy or a peaceful society 10 years from now is if we take much better care of our children today.

This is a brilliant take on what’s happening now. “I see then that this is both a very dark time and, potentially, a very bright time. It's important to hold these truths together.”

.@JoeBiden said in his speech yesterday that no American working 40 hours a week should live in poverty. May it be so. The very fact that he said it is important, and it’s up to We the People to monitor the progress of the administration to make sure they make good on his word.
