The ICE agent who shot Marimar Martinez in Chicago tried to goad her out of her car. He said “do something b*tch” and shot her 5 times. The ICE agent who shot Nicole Renee Good did the same thing. Stood right in front of her vehicle and yelled “f*cking bitch”. They hate women & it shows.

Do you know how badass Minnesota is? They have a Virginia flag captured at Gettysburg, and refuse to return it. VA keeps asking, and MN keeps requesting to know why they want a Confederate flag so badly. "Why (would we return it)? I mean, we won." - Gov. Ventura MN keeps it hidden in a drawer.

In the century leading up to 1975, nearly 6000 freighters went down in the Great Lakes. The Edmund Fitzgerald was the last. The last. In 50 years, not a single commercial freighter has been lost in the Great Lakes. Why? It's NOAA. Of course it's NOAA.

Hell yes, the Republican party’s official response to people voting against them should be “you’re not allowed to do that anymore,” especially since they’re not going to actually be able to do it. Make that brand toxic as shit.

I feel like a broken record, but I have to keep saying it over and over again: a farmer bailout won’t do much of anything because the market is gone. There will be no incentive to plant next year. The bailout will help payoff farmer debt to the banks. That’s all.

A program in Flint, MI, gave $1,500 to any/all pregnant people and $500/month for the first year of their infant’s life. Among the benefits, those babies experienced lower rates of prematurity and low birth weight, which resulted in fewer NICU admissions, saving the city of Flint $6.2 million/year.

The argument against regulation is always the same: “It stifles growth and jobs.” But just as tax cuts for corporations have not trickled down, regulatory cuts have not benefited most people. Big companies enjoy bigger profits. Working people bear the costs.
