If the Democratic Party is so pro-union, then 1) why aren't they passing the PRO ACT & 2) why aren't more Democratic politicians standing with striking workers on all those picket lines? Unless the Democratic party returns to its core values, it won't have a chance in '22 or '24.

How Senator Manchin currently serves as the Chairman of the Senate Energy and Natural Resources Committee is beyond me.
A coal baron should not direct the Senate’s energy policy. No “better messaging” can fix that.

Private insurance spends 17x more on administrative costs than traditional Medicare—to pay for things like stock buybacks, executive pay, and ads.
Medicare for All would save taxpayers billions and generate better health outcomes. It is fiscally responsible policy.

Sometimes I think Hedges is a genius and sometimes I don’t agree with him, but I’m never not edified by his perspective. YouTube taking down his episodes are Big Brother at its worst.
This past weekend, journalist and author Chris Hedges woke up to find six years of episodes of his show On Contact removed from YouTube: taibbi.substack.com/p/meet-t…

Some of us think Russian imperialism is just as bad as American imperialism and want to stand up to it just as vigorously.
