We used to make shit, build shit in this country. Now we put our hand in the next guy's pocket. Or so I was once told. This shit is going to make the mortgage-backed securities scandal look like a time of modulated economic growth and sober investment opportunity.

If Congress doesn’t act, Social Security benefits are on track be cut in 2032. Not on my watch. We must protect Social Security by lifting the cap so that those with the highest incomes pay the same share as everyone else.

“Just take the cap off” Elizabeth Warren on removing the Social Security tax cap to make the highest earners pay their fair share.

No doubt this has occurred to other bystanders as well, but it would seem that a handful of billionaires dropping $150 million into a single state's election in an attempt to defeat a wealth-tax initiative just about makes the entire case for a wealth-tax initiative.

The NYPD just released surveillance video of the ICE shooting (which occurred off camera). Two men in civilian clothes run up to a car with guns drawn. One second later, one man begins smashing the butt of his gun into the driver’s side window. The driver appears to panic and hit the gas.

This was a pretty small protest, but it honestly seemed incredibly effective. I don’t think that they’ve done this before, the only time I’ve been to a protest at this building was on a weekend. I really don’t think these workers liked being shamed!

Wanna know what fetal personhood is? It's giving fertilized eggs, embryos, and fetuses a constitutional right to life which competes with the pregnant person's. Then a medical decision can become a fight between two “people,” w/ the state acting as referee. Guess who loses? (The pregnant person.)
