Remember: If unions didn’t matter, powerful corporations wouldn’t spend millions of dollars every year to stop workers from organizing. Keep up the fight.

I can't believe we have a Pope from Illinois. People from Chicago usually hate the Cardinals.

Among the material devastation to everyday people, Senate Dems have now blown a hole in their ability to work with the House.

We had an agreed upon plan, House took immense risk, then Senate turned around midway and destroyed it w/ a fear-based, inexplicable abdication.

They own what happens next.

American politics makes a lot more sense when you realize that the GOP is afraid of pissing off the GOP base, and the Dems are afraid of pissing off the GOP base, but neither party is afraid of pissing off the Dem base.

The institutional Democratic Party is guided by an almost pathological level of conflict avoidance in almost every direction. β€œWhat can we do to make the least number of people mad?” is just a bankrupt way to operate.

The #WhiteLotus girls trio is the embodiment of "Trip made it out the group chat, but the group chat didn't make it out of the trip."

Candle warmers make no sense because it's like "What if we took something romantic and turned it into an expensive glade plug-in"

Lee Jae-myung, Leader of South Korea's Democratic Party, live-streamed himself scaling the walls of the National Assembly to bypass military barricades so that he could vote to overturn the President's martial law.
