Everyone I know works tirelessly. Today I wondered… what if the people complaining about lazy people are really talking about themselves and they are the only ones who are lazy… and we should just go ahead and ignore them and do stuff that’s for the public good? 🤷🏻♀️

It's great that reporting on the double tap has spotlighted the abject criminality of this Administration. But don't forget: Venezuela is not waging war on America or Americans, and the men killed were not combatants. The first strike was every bit as illegal as the second.

Remember: Almost all of us are the descendants of immigrants who fled persecution, or were brought to America under duress, or sought better lives for themselves and their descendants. Politicians who stoke fear and hatred over immigration want you to forget this. Do not.

Medicare for All would save $450B a year. Every dollar spent on food stamps generates $1.50-$1.80 in economic activity. Each dollar going to low-wage workers adds $1.20 to the economy overall. It’s not about what this country can or can’t afford. It’s about priorities.

Increase in productivity since 1979: 87% Increase in hourly pay since 1979: 32% Just so happens that ~25% of workers were unionized in 1979. Today? 10%. As unions declined, the super-rich have taken a larger share of wealth generated by labor. We must build back union power.

If I had to guess, I would say that the delay is mostly about redacting in a way that absolves Trump… but if that were really what the files said… you can bet they would have all been released immediately. I think it’s likely that democrats didn’t release the info because Bill Clinton = also guilty.
