I'm old enough to remember when polio put my friends into iron lungs. We dutifully lined up at school to get vaccinated. We eradicated the disease. We protected the common good and saved lives. What RFK Jr. is doing to public health in America is a disgrace.

The high school softball team in Maryland making monkey sounds towards the opposing black pitcher learned that shit from their home or community. Check your lips.

This entire thing is ridiculous, but Lee also demonstrated extremely poor generalship at Gettysburg that resulted in a third of his Army becoming casualties. He also didn’t take over command of the Army of N. VA until 14 months after the war started.

Good morning 🌸 In a world that seems to be collapsing around us, we need to remind ourselves that through the ugliness there is much more goodness in our world. Hang in there! Have a great weekend. #Pinks #ProudBlue

President Biden had prices coming down. Trump could have done nothing & that downward trend would have continued. Instead, Trump & Republican policies have increased prices again, over the past 15 months, with no end in sight for the increases to stop. Stop letting Republicans destroy progress!

🔥 @timmiller.bsky.social : “You can’t tell me it’s a real democracy if by exec order the governor can nullify your vote… in Tennessee — the idea that NASHVILLE & MEMPHIS would not have representation? How is that democracy? That’s preposterous.” @GovBillLee @MarshaBlackburn

Four-time Grammy Award nominee Jesse Welles performs his song "Join Ice." Bob Dylan once said a single folk singer could defeat an entire army. Ladies and gentlemen, I think we have our man.

There’s only one way to leave an abusive relationship: utterly and finally. That doesn’t make it easy—on the contrary, it’s among the hardest things anyone can ever do. It’s just as hard for a nation or group of nations. It’s time for Europe to abandon America. Cut us off until we save ourselves.

Every major step toward justice in this country was won through collective action. Our union exists to organize working people, because solidarity is our strength! #ICEOUT

Retiring Walmart CEO Doug McMillon made $27.5M last year, over 930 times the median Walmart worker's salary of just $29,469. Walmart's wages are so low that its workers are among the most likely to rely on SNAP and Medicaid to get by. It's past time Walmart paid them a living wage.

I'm not one for false optimism. But what I witnessed today in Minneapolis was tremendous, both in scale and exuberance. It was a stunning answer to the federal assault on Minnesota, a show of solidarity that gives us something to hold on to during times that are unforgiving.
