whylennial.com/web3 The best thing to do in a bear market is educate and build. Web3 is all about putting content creation tools in the hands of a decentralized community 😎🦎💚 #CreepzStrongerTogether

So many of the horrible things happening in America right now, like teaching our children slaves were lucky to learn skills, or allowing women to bleed out in hospital parking lots, or pushing migrants into rivers to drown, could be stopped by the women who look exactly like me.

“Stop trying to screw the workers.”

For all the scolding of the left for calling SCOTUS illegitimate (which it is), let the record reflect that the first people to openly defy a ruling by it are…the GOP-controlled state legislatures of Alabama, who are refusing to redraw maps to better represent black constituents

The MAGAs screaming "stop making everything about race" just repealed affirmative action, claim slavery benefitted Black people, ordered drowning of brown migrant kids, defied a SCOTUS redistricting order, & threatened to sue Fortune 100 companies for "anti-white" discrimination.

Immigrants who are eligible for the DACA program have been living here since before 2007. But somehow, Republicans want to blame Dreamers for their so-called “Biden border crisis.” I shut down this nonsense.

Alabama 1958: KEEP ALABAMA WHITE
Alabama 2023: KEEP ALABAMA WHITE
Systemic white supremacy and anti-Black racism is alive and well in the GOP. It’s not a bug—it’s the feature.

13.2 million new jobs.
The strongest economic recovery in the world.
It's no accident.
It’s Bidenomics in action.

Nearly 10M jobs were from returning to work post-Covid. The US has been lagging behind EU, China, and others.
Inflation has been and is still high. Real wages are still low as is job participation.

Here's your daily reminder that political centrism is nonsense. There is no middle ground between democracy and fascism.

Every Republican member of Congress voted against the Inflation Reduction Act.
That hasn’t stopped them from claiming credit now that billions of dollars and thousands of jobs are coming home.
That's alright: Bidenomics works for all of America.

Why are thousands of workers across multiple industries currently striking or planning to strike?
I guess it’s a mystery.
In other news, CEO pay has skyrocketed 1,460% since 1978, while typical worker pay grew by just 18%.

Teachers can only deduct $250 in school supplies on their taxes, but billionaire Harlon Crow can write off his super yacht.😐
Why? Because millionaire politicians funded by billionaires & corps write tax law for billionaires. We need a Congress for working people—not the .1%
