I am sooooo proud of you, David. Congratulations on a tremendous showing - yes, less than we would have hoped for but still very very impressive.

As long as corporations run the world, “the laws of nature and of nature’s God” will be superseded by the laws of profit.
American civilization will continue to devolve until we are willing to do whatever it takes to awaken from our trance and turn that around.

Multiple politicians hold significant stocks in the very defense corporations whose federal contracts they vote to increase each year. The solution to this blatant intrusion of defense money into politics is simple: ban all congressional stock trading. jacobin.com/2022/11/ndaa-def…

Starbucks used to inspire us with its stated values.
Its current anti-union activity goes against everything it says it stands for.

Nancy Pelosi has passed the baton, but it remains to be seen who she passes it to.
Hakeem Jeffries would be a perpetuation of the system as it is.
Hopefully someone who is willing to lead House Democrats in a more progressive direction will run for leadership & be next in line.

This is criminal.
🧵Clifford Farrar, a 51-year-old diabetic in WA state prison, repeatedly asked for insulin pump supplies. The prison declined, saying he had to pay.
"I don't have the funds," he wrote in a grievance.
24 days later, he collapsed w/ low blood sugar + died
