"Almost nowhere in America can you do all the activities you and I do every day and take for granted. Eating, sleeping, resting, sitting. We're all sitting right now. If we were doing that and we were homeless...it might be considered a crime." - @EricTars nevadacurrent.com/2024/12/17/cam…

According to The Lancet, America’s for profit exploitative healthcare system causes 68,000 preventable deaths annually. That means since an assailant killed the @UHC CEO, America’s health insurance corps have killed ~400 Americans who should be alive today. 1 every 7.5 minutes.

It is quite the fragile god who needs political power to preserve and enforce their will. It is quite the powerful God who is born in poverty, partners with the poor, washes feet, heals the sick, advocates for the oppressed, is unjustly killed and still changes the entire world.

Pay attention: If your income is under $360,000 per year, Trump’s tax plans will increase your taxes. The top 5% get tax breaks while the working class pays more. That’s his plan.

Julie’s late brother served honorably in the Navy. 🕊️ According to Trump, he’s a sucker for that. As decent human beings and veterans, we disagree. #TrumpDishonorsUS #notasucker

"I believe there’s just two classes of people. There’s the rich and there’s everybody else. When I talk about the working class, I always say, union or not. If you work for a living, we’re in this fight together." — @ShawnFainUAW peoplesdispatch.org/2024/09/11/sha…

BREAKING: Comedian @jonstewart deftly explains how @TheDemocrats let almost everyone on earth speak at their convention except a Palestinian-American. Silencing a key voice on the great moral issue of the day is inexcusable. ⤵️

If we want the war in Gaza to end, we can’t put our heads in the sand or ignore the voices of the Palestinian Americans in the Democratic Party. If we want peace, if we want real democracy, and if we want to win this election, the Democratic Party must allow a Palestinian American speaker to be heard from the DNC stage tonight.

Protesters arrested for seizing Hind’s Hall at Columbia University are refusing any deals unless protesters at CUNY are offered the same, and they stand in solidarity with those facing the most extreme repression in the movement. mondoweiss.net/2024/06/columb…
