Who could have guessed Republicans have never had a plan to lower health care costs for Americans and instead want to make deeper cuts to the ACA & enact dangerous poison pills to the legislation?? So glad we got a pinky promise for a vote on whatever the fuck this is.

Choose your fighter 😍

As of this morning, Starbucks workers across the country are officially ON STRIKE. And we're prepared for this to become the biggest and longest ULP strike in Starbucks history. Say #NoContractNoCoffee with us: DON'T BUY STARBUCKS for the duration of our open-ended ULP strike! $SBUX

The Trump regime is declaring that funding for the CFPB is illegal. Remember: This is the agency that protects Americans from financial predators. Anti-CFPB oligarchs, who spent millions to re-elect Trump, will now have an easier time padding their pockets by ripping you off.

This hair-brained legal theory cropped up after THE SUPREME COURT already ruled that the CFPB's funding structure is constitutional. Russ Vought has been blood-thirsty to destroy the CFPB from the jump, now corporations can crush consumers even more, without recourse.

Fuck Larry Summers

Billionaires in America are richer than they've ever been before. They're buying yachts for their superyachts. The rest of us can't afford groceries, rent, or healthcare. And the people in charge just cut healthcare to give billionaires more tax breaks. We're being played.

What a time to work in national politics amirite?

"We'll see" IS NOT AN IRONCLAD AGREEMENT. Senate Dems just gave away the only leverage they had to protect millions of Americans' healthcare subsidies. Absolutely mind boggling.

Exhibit #2625 on Dems winning the politics of the shutdown fight. Check out this polling from @groundwork.bsky.social:

The cool thing re: lying about things people materially feel in their everyday lives is that YOU CAN’T BECAUSE PEOPLE KNOW HOW MUCH THINGS COST WHEN THEY BUY THEM.

They want us to fight, left versus right. But it’s time to realize that those are the wrong directions. It’s up versus down. Billionaires versus the rest of us.

👋🏼 Mom from Massachusetts here whose kid has free school lunch because of a millionaires surtax—it’s amazing and he prefers school lunch to what we pack him most days

Just so we are clear: ICE went into a day care center—a private business—without a judicial warrant, and unlawfully kidnapped a worker in front of parents and children.

Already showing that he’s both brilliant at campaigning and now governance.

BREAKING: Colorado voters approved a ballot measure that would raise state income taxes on higher-earning households to fund free meals for all public school students. Follow AP for live updates.

The oligarchy came out in full force against Zohran Mamdani's fight for a more affordable NYC. It didn't matter. Let his victory in the face of Big Money serve as a reminder that people have the power.

Everyone please make sure to leave your “billionaire tears” coffee mug out tonight for a celebratory morning of truly inferno takes.

Turns out many Americans are pissed & don’t like the way Republicans are running the country 🤷🏻‍♀️

Republicans who think your seat is safe: no it's not

New Mexico is now officially the first state to offer free child care to all residents. Under the program all families, regardless of income, can get their child care fees covered. Proponents say the program will help the economy, improve education, and boost child welfare.

SO grateful for the work @democracyforward.org does every single day, but especially today in defending SNAP

Republicans are now conveniently “concerned” about families going hungry while Trump chooses to let contingency SNAP funding go unused after those same Republicans voted to gut trillions in SNAP to pay for billionaire tax cuts back in July.

“For the first time in U.S. history, the President is cutting off food assistance and telling more than 40 million Americans to eat dirt.” Hell yeah Elizabeth Warren, that’s my senator www.warren.senate.gov/newsroom/pre...

@chusak.bsky.social shows that expiring Affordable Care Act premium tax credits--which Dems are fighting to extend--mean more to true small business owners than so-called "small business tax relief" included in this summer's Republican megabill, which went almost entirely to the rich

The depth of the shame of a country this wealthy and abundant allowing its people to go hungry is impossible to measure. The fact that a handful of people could fix this by paying their fair share of taxes while still remaining obscenely wealthy makes it even worse.

Dem Governors, take note: this is how it's done.

Fair Share continues to deliver. #mapoli www.wcvb.com/article/mass...

Donated this morning, received email that they could buy 60 dozen eggs with what I gave. Those of us who can, should.

Food bank director: “for every meal that a food bank provides, the SNAP program provides nine. There’s no way we can meet that gap.”

Don't let Trump & Republicans get away with their lies--they are making a cruel policy choice to NOT use contingency funds to cover SNAP for millions of Americans because they're fine with using hungry families as bargaining chips.

USDA is legally required to use the SNAP contingency fund to pay benefits USDA says they won't bcuz Tropical Storm Melissa might hit FL - but current projections have it missing FL Trump enacted the largest cuts to SNAP in history in July - he's not paying SNAP benefits because he doesn't want to

Is he just gonna steal $230 million dollars from us?

The corrupt self enrichment and doing crimes out in the open is getting more blatant every day.

WELL HOW ABOUT THAT "A millionaire levy in Massachusetts has generated $3 billion more in revenue than expected without forcing significant high-profile departures from the state." www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

Ok so looks like the GOP fear mongering about #NoKings didn't work because they saw millions of normie Americans flood the streets against them & Trump, so now they're pivoting to theocracy. Very cool stuff.

The president of the United States posted a video of him defecating on the American people. Many in my profession normalized it. This is a big reason why we are where we are.

Spreading the good word today at #NoKings

"There's no shortage of reasons these days to be angry or afraid. But look around you right now and you'll see tens of thousands of reasons to keep the faith and keep going. This is the America we know to be possible." —Mayor Michelle Wu, Boston No Kings Rally 🚫👑 #NoKings

Donald Trump: No health care for you, but a new ballroom for me.

Republicans in Congress say they’re fighting for working families. But their tariffs & cuts to health care & SNAP are ⬆️ the price of everything from school supplies to housing. The People’s Price Index exposes who’s making life unaffordable. Read the report: unrigoureconomy.com/campaigns/th...

No Kings, No Billionaires 👊

Healthcare premiums are about to double across America. Georgia 📈 +$2,064 Idaho 📈 +$1,472 Maryland📈 +$1,089 Nevada📈 +$1,425 New York📈 +$1,111 Virginia📈 +$1,342 In these same states, billionaires are set to get six-figure tax breaks. THIS is what the shutdown is about.

Let's gooooo Jesuit theology!
