Sen Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) on jobs report: “Trump’s economy has only added 33,000 jobs a month on average, far below the 120,000-a-month average in 2024. At the same time, paychecks are growing at their slowest rate in nearly 7 years”

In rich folks culture men are allowed to try anything they want as long as they have money. And, the women are supposed to defend themselves without offending said men. It is a culture of male taking. Example: Trump’s “grab’em by the p*ssy” comment.

I don't give a damn if the media is calling a landslide. Get your ass to the polls anyway! Complacency is how we lose. Drop the comfort, lock in, and vote like democracy depends on it—because it does!

Amid outcry, NY prosecutors have reopened the criminal investigation into the 7 Cornell gang rapists, a case that was covered up 2 years ago. These assholes would’ve been punished if they had written “free Palestine” instead of “free p*ssy.” Cornell leadership should be investigated too.

This is the trap of broadcast news: Without the pop of events it gets very thin because it is geared to the least informed and interested. Trump didn't panic because he knew that he could wait them out. READ the news. Support text-based, credible news that is *owned* by local people.
