You should be embarrassed to be a member of congress and issuing anything other than impeachment resolutions. You're in the model UN. They should give you legos and a propeller hat

Every now and then I go back and read the Citizens United ruling to see if it is as unhinged as I thought, and every time I do that I see it is actually far more deranged than I remembered. levernews.com/book
Supreme Court ruling: "This Court now concludes that independent expenditures, including those made by corporations, do not give rise to corruption or the appearance of corruption. That speakers may have influence over or access to elected officials does not mean that those officials are corrupt. And the appearance of influence or access will not cause the electorate to lose faith in this democracy."

We need to teach people the difference between being uncomfortable and being unsafe. Because the discomfort of the safest people is endangering the most vulnerable, all day every day.

The upshot: “In 2021, the United Farm Workers launched a “Take Our Jobs” campaign that offered to match the unemployed with jobs in agriculture near their homes. More than 4 million visited the campaign’s special website. Only 11 people responded to the offer.”

La Unión de Campesinos, junto a todo el movimiento laboral, se une en solidaridad con nuestro compañero, el líder David Huerta. Demandamos que lo suelten inmediatamente y condenamos redadas indiscriminadas atacando a los trabajadores inmigrantes.
La Union de Campesinos condena la 
violencia contra nuestro compañero David Huerta, el Presidente de SEIU California y de SEIU-USWW, quien fue herido y detenido mientras exigiendo sus derechos constitucionales durante una redada de ICE en Los Ángeles. 

Ahora más que nunca, es urgente que toda la gente trabajadora de Estados Unidos se una a defender a los trabajadores inmigrantes quienes contribuyan tanto a nuestro país. 
Un ataque contra cualquier trabajador es un ataque contra todos los trabajadores -- la unión y la solidaridad son nuestra respuesta.

They say it can’t be done, but here we are, California is generated 106% of California’s entire state electricity demand from renewables. California has a population bigger that 154 other countries around the world. It’s the 4th largest economy, in the world. Let that sink in. #energysky #greensky

Netanyahu repeats that the Gaza war will end as the "Trump plan" is implemented, expelling all Palestinians from Gaza from Gaza and allow the development there of a resort and casino. In other words, Nakba 2.0. Note how Netanyahu's remarks are not reported in the US media.

Mexico insists that its crisis of gun violence can be stamped "made in USA." Mexico is correct. "Between 200,000 and 500,000 guns are illegally trafficked into Mexico from the United States each year. Many end up in the hands of organized crime."
