Yes, even if Trump is still the president, we can still get stuff done. Don’t believe me? My housing affordability law—that Donald Trump refused to sign—became law last July. And that was before we gained our majorities. We MUST fight to deliver real change and lower costs.

Just like clockwork. The corporations that we VOTED to block from buying off politicians are suing to make sure...they can keep buying off politicians.

A cashier at Walmart, a delivery driver at Amazon or a waiter at KFC should be able to afford rent, groceries and bills with their paycheck alone. That is exactly what jobs are for

I’m crying. 😭😭😭 This might be the most diabolical use of a foldable phone I’ve ever seen. The reveal when he opens it is INSANE. 💀

Elon Musk is mass deleting tweets like he's a Nazi burning documents in a fireplace at the end of WW II and it's funny because the internet NEVER FORGETS.

Guys, guys, I just called my Dem Congressman's office to tell him I don't want Jeffries as speaker and before I was even done with my preamble, the staffer said, let me guess what you're going to say...he said he's been hearing it all day and then he asked me what I'd like to see Democrats do and had a 10 minute conversation with me. He even asked me to repeat some items from my laundry list so he could write it down. I also called my Senator. Who has also been getting calls about new leadership. Call your reps!

One week until Election Day. America deserves better than the pedophile protection party. Knock doors. Make calls. Get your friends to vote. Let’s elect Democrats up and down the ballot and finally make Trump release the Epstein files.

93% of all stocks are owned by 10% of people. The bottom 90% have basically nothing. Very cool system.
it might just be me but I'm starting to think trickle down economics may be a scam

“If you cut taxes for the rich, they’ll create jobs.”🤡
Microsoft just made $133.7 BILLION in net income last year. Today they announced they are getting rid of 60,000 workers. Fuck these companies man.

Trump just said the quiet part out loud: He doesn’t “give a damn” about higher gas prices, as long as his billionaire friends are making a fortune. Trump doesn’t tell the truth very often, but he did last night!
TRUMP on HIGH GAS PRICES: We’re making money like we’ve never made before. They’ll say: President Trump is bragging about all the money they're making while people are suffering at the pump. I don’t give a damn. We’re making a freaking fortune.

OBAMA: When I was president, all these Republicans are all deficits, deficits, debt, debt. You got to do something about it. And now—$40 trillion—Crickets. Somehow deficits only matter when a Democratic president is in office

When a worker wears an Amazon vest, drives an Amazon van and delivers on an Amazon-controlled route, but Amazon denies they work for the company — that's exploitation. When we see that traffic and injury-causing crashes spike on the streets around a warehouse — that's exploitation. And it makes our streets less safe. We stand with working people, not corporations that profit by denying them their rights. We stand with @Teamsters and for safe streets in New York City. We will pass the Delivery Protection Act.
If it looks like an Amazon delivery and drives like an Amazon delivery, then it's an Amazon delivery, right? Not according to Amazon. Big companies like Amazon have built a vast network of subcontractors who deliver their packages while shielding them from accountability. It leaves our workers unprotected and our streets less safe. It's time for a change. I'm proud to support the Delivery Protection Act to crack down on exploitative subcontracting and build an economy that works for everyone.

The Treasury Department on Thursday proposed rules on new restrictions on large investors buying single-family homes, one of the first moves in the federal government to implement the bipartisan housing package that passed over the summer. news.bloombergtax.com/daily-…
