In the David Hearn reflecting pool case the judge noted that Trump wanted Hearn (an innocent man) prosecuted “especially since … Hearn has donated to ActBlue, a Democratic-affiliated fundraising platform” & because Trump dislikes Hearn's lawyer, Norm Eisen. IMPEACH/CONVICT/REMOVE!

Ruby Bridges was 6-years-old when she stepped into the history books. Bravely accompanied by her mother, she was the first Black child to desegregate an all-white school in the South. It was not long ago… Today is her birthday. She is still with us. She is 72. Happy birthday, Ruby Bridges 💜

The amount of Amazon workers relying on SNAP and Medicaid has nearly tripled since 2020 — while Amazon’s annual profits soared by over 550%. It’s the same story everywhere: corporate profits are at record highs, while workers’ share of the economy is at a record low. We must unrig the system.
