If you live in or you know anyone in Tennessee’s 7th district, TODAY is the LAST day to vote early. And tell everyone you know who hasn’t voted that it is all about turnout next Tuesday. We need as many people showing up to the polls. We can do this.

In his futile attempt to justify Musk's $1 trillion pay package, this Musk fluffer overlooks: -Musk's tax rate on his $450BN is only 2.5% so far. -Tesla & SpaceX received $3.7BN of US subsidies & loans. -SpaceX has $22BN in US govt contracts. -Tesla has received $22BN in US ZEV/GHG/IRA credits.

FWIW, social democracies like Norway, Sweden etc have big businesses. They have billionaires. They also have universal healthcare, quality free education & child care, and programs to curb poverty and food insecurity. How? Their billionaires pay taxes and don’t control the government.

The largest meta study on the Housing First method found that housing a homeless individual or family reduces the societal cost per person per year from an average of $35,500 to $16,479. The study's authors concluded it costs 1.8 times as much to be cruel to the homeless than it does to be kind.

California – this Election Day, vote yes on Prop 50. California’s Prop 50 says that if Republicans are going to abuse the system to try and hang onto power, we’re going to counteract that abuse and create a level playing field in the midterm elections. Make a plan to vote yes on Prop 50.
