She is an expert at lying, “calling out” Trump-insanity, then voting FOR his insane appointees. She’s part of the problem, not the solution.
Long, beautifully written and researched story about the fiction writing market that leads with a copyright lawsuit: www.newyorker.com/magazine/202...
Public education is the backbone of American democracy.
In the richest country in the history of the world, we cannot abandon our teachers and our public schools.
Republicans want to slash Medicaid — a death sentence for thousands of Americans. Medicaid provides health care to more than 37 million kids, funding for 2/3 of seniors in nursing homes & is 40% of the revenue for community health centers.
We must EXPAND Medicaid, not cut it.
Our current health care system is not designed to provide quality care to all people.
It is designed to make huge profits for insurance & drug companies.
In that sense, the system is working very well.
But it is not working for the average American.
We need Medicare for All.
In the 1970s, Alaska capped the number of commercial fishermen, in an effort to make the industry more profitable.
Since then, Native villages have lost huge numbers of permits, depriving residents of the chance to catch fish for a living.

Thats the point. If Unions become a solution for non-union, healthcare for small/medium businesses, the profile of Unions change immediately and the quality of care options go up immediately for those non union workers
Won’t be easy. Wouldn’t happen fast. But it would be game changing
It has been observed before, and I agree, that “we can have democracy in this country, or we can have great wealth concentrated in the hands of a few, but we can't have both.” A party of democracy has to open its doors and make membership more than just giving an online donation
To be a working class party, we have to be a grassroots oriented DNC which opens our doors and brings people in. We have to be service to others beyond ourselves. www.nbcnews.com/meet-the-pre...
Exclusive: Aides to Elon Musk charged with running the US government human resources agency locked career civil servants out of computer systems that contain the personal data of millions of federal employees, according to two agency officials reut.rs/3CuCEPs
This is what the government did with 120K+ Japanese Americans in 1942.
I know. I was there in those camps.
I read some Roberts, but not Robb. Great book cover :)
Donold is blaming a plane crash that killed 67 people on “DEI” with zero evidence.
He is attempting to use racism to deflect from the fact it is HIS fault. He had just removed 100 FAA senior officials.
It’s been 11 days and there are 67 bodies in the Potomac in Washington DC because of him.
Trump is an extremely dangerous man--stupid, vindictive, fixated on payback for his enemies. This country will be lucky to survive him.
Dozens of Jan. 6 defendants who received pardons from President Trump had past criminal convictions for charges including rape, manslaughter, domestic violence and drug trafficking.
Yes, this administration is dangerous and cruel, but they are also shockingly dim and incompetent.
Opportunities are everywhere.
Make everything as hard as possible. Resist every demand. Refuse entry without a warrant. Don’t take the buyout. Their problem solving skills are 📉
I believe Substack just did a huge endorsement of Musk. If you don’t follow Wil Wheaton, check his posts.
Call me crazy, but I always feel like the best revenge is doing the right thing. Particularly when it's the alternative to someone who has zero interest in doing what is right
I think Colombia backs down. But kinda hope they don’t. Just gonna leave these here as a reference
Thank you!
It's been one week. Every morning I wake up and discover that he has taken something else away from all of us -- including the dipshits who voted for him -- that keeps us safe. Every morning he's attacked another vulnerable group of innocent Americans.
Interesting. I may have to look at the framework I’ve been using for so long: Genesis
Nice space :) I used to love that keyboard.
Poster-like image of a Seward parking lot with an RV in it, and the cover of the book "Destination Alaska". Words on the image are: One woman's poignant journey of unexpected challenges and personal rediscovery.
I'm really surprised at how many KU reads this book is getting :)
