Crafter, small business owner, vote blue, even if they aren’t perfect - not voting is not an option

Trickle-down economics worked exactly as designed. That they lied to convince workers they would benefit as much as the 1% is a different discussion

😱😱😱 And just like that, it’s completely VANISHED from the media. A sitting congressman, Ted Lieu, said on the record the Epstein files are being blocked because they show Trump raped and threatened to kill children. Lets make this viral again 👇

But apparently what we need to worry about is trans people in the restroom. Still waiting for a single true report of a trans person sexually assaulting someone in a restroom.

Every word of this from @drewmagary.bsky.social. Democrats will likely retake Congress, but what they do next is an open question. That's why it's important for us all to press Democrats -- right now -- to commit to an aggressive agenda of oversight and accountability.
As desperate as Republicans are to hold onto power, the Democratic establishment is even more rattled. An oil slick like Schumer sees his GOP chums on the other side of the aisle get marginalized by an interloper (Trump), and now fears a similar interloper on his side doing likewise. The Schumers of the DNC fear the likes of Zohran Mamdani and AOC (even as she's gone about sanding down her politics over the last eight years) far more than they fear Trump. So if they wrest control of Congress a month from now, their priority won’t be to reform a brazenly corrupt Supreme Court, or to punish Trump and his many accomplices for their endless crimes, or to finally cut off aid to Israel, or even to force an end to that shitty war in Iran. All they’ll do is sit on their candy asses and wait around for the next election. Then they’ll tell you the best way, the most responsible way, to express your anger at their indifference is to continue voting for them.

A Senator Facing Re-Election Settles a Bakery Bill, 6 Years Later www.nytimes.com/2026/10/10/u.... As a small business owner this amount, though small, could absolutely break us. He can’t even return her call (or have his staff do it) until it makes news? One more reason to vote for Hamilton.

Because the whiny bitch in the White House doesn’t understand that you don’t get the Peace Prize when you start wars and threaten other nations. What a fucking embarrassment

I realize it’s complicated, but you don’t get a peace prize when you start unprovoked wars, threaten the forced annexation of all or parts of sovereign nations, and generally demand obsequiousness from leaders of other countries.

Corporations spend more than $1.5B a year on union-busting. That’s $1.5B they could have spent on higher wages, better benefits, and improving workplace safety. Remember: if they weren’t so scared of worker power, they wouldn’t fight so hard against unions. Kudos to these Autozone workers.

I can only assume that this same member of Congress is also completely unaware that the Constitution gives Congress the ability and the authority to put an end to it. Because most of them have shown no understanding of how our government is supposed to work

Just in case it wasn’t clear, when they say the U.S. Government’s paying for this, that’s YOUR taxpayer dollars they’re using. I’ll say this as many times as I need to: it is ILLEGAL to use American taxpayer dollars from the government to pay for candidates’ or parties’ political ads.

How about no. No private institution will serve our small rural communities for the same fee as largest metropolitan areas. Instead we need to fix the board and remove the self-serving members who are trying to destroy it so they can charge enormous fees to deliver our mail or not as whims dictate

Starbucks’ CEO made 6,666x more than the company's median employee in 2024. In 2025, he made 1,794x more. And we're supposed to believe Starbucks can't afford to bargain a fair contract with its unionized workers? I will continue my boycott of Starbucks.

Dear Texans: Here's an election pro tip. If a candidate won't debate You don't vote for them. Period. It's that simple. By not debating they're saying you're concerns are not a priority. Vote for those who will debate. They have plans and value your concerns. Vote Talarico! Vote Hinojosa!

With the midterm elections shaping up to be a massive reckoning for the Republican Party, it's worth remembering that they had a fairly easy offramp from Trumpism in the immediate aftermath of the January 6th riot but they completely chickened out.
