Absolutely. The consolidation of corporate media is one of the biggest factors in the emergence of the new dystopia. We need desperately to get back to local newspapers.

Barack Obama had a super majority, could have called for the codification of reproductive rights but it said “it wasn’t a legislative priority.” For God’s sake, it isn’t @SusanSarandon’s fault.

Note to purists: Abortion laws in Texas are the worst anywhere, aiming to criminalize abortion no matter the circumstances. If a pro-choice gubernatorial candidate can beat Greg Abbott you better believe I unapologetically support him.

Agree.
If Howard Schultz wants a photo-op with the President so badly, maybe, just maybe, he ought to obey the law, end the union busting at Starbucks, stop firing workers for being pro-union and negotiate a first contract with union workers that is fair and that is just.

Somebody needs to explain to me how a pro choice Gubernatorial candidate replacing Greg Abbott in Texas is a bad thing.

A good idea.
We should all be demanding that Democrats force Republicans to filibuster the codifying of Roe v Wade into federal law. I don't mean an instant filibuster. Make them hold the floor for hours, days, weeks, MONTHS if necessary.

One of the worst parts of the drama around the Roe v. Wade decision is how weak the Democratic response has been. If Daddy hits you and Mommy just wrings her hands and offers you ice cream afterwards, you’ll grow up one day and be really angry at Mommy.

"Abolishing the filibuster is not radical," said the advocacy group Public Citizen. "What's radical is watching anti-abortion, anti-trans, and voter suppression legislation sweep the nation and doing nothing to stop it."

“If they give it to the poor they call it a handout; if they give it to the rich they call it a subsidy.” - Martin Luther King Jr.
But cancelling student debt is a regressive giveaway to the 44 million “rich” Americans who couldn’t pay for college. 🙄

For those who think “it’s just his tweets that are bad.”
NEW: Mark Esper recounts Trump asking the stunned SecDef if the government could fire missiles into Mexico and then pretend it wasn’t the US who did it in his new memoir nytimes.com/2022/05/05/us/po…
