FDR was very explicit when creating the minimum wage that it should be a livable wage.
This idea that minimum wage jobs are starter jobs is corporate propaganda used to defend paying people substandard wages.

Philly, I’m proud to be one of you, now.
Thank you to the 76ers organization for giving me the opportunity. I couldn’t be more grateful to be here.
Now, I’ve gotten the chance to explore a little bit. I’ve had some Philly cheesesteaks. I’ve run up the Rocky Steps. I’m just getting comfortable and getting my bearings. But I’m really looking forward to earning your respect, and the respect of my teammates and coaches. I’m just trying to be a sponge and learn and absorb, and hopefully get better.
I’ve been playing it all back in my head for the past few weeks, just trying to process everything. Thinking about the work I put in, and the sacrifices my family made. I just wanted to write a little something for my people who got me here, and for all the kids still wishing. I hope I can do my own small part to continue Sugar’s vision for inspiring the kids where I’m from.
There was a time when I didn’t think any of this was possible. I’ve heard it all before. ‘You can’t do this, you can’t do that.’ I had to learn how to block it out and not let it bother me. To any kids facing those doubts, if you’re reading this — don’t believe what they tell you. Let it motivate you to keep trying harder.
They will ALWAYS say, You can’t, you can’t, you can’t.
They will be wrong.” playerstribu.ne/VJ

Since May, tariff refunds have amounted to 113% of new tariff collections.
That's a net loss of $15 billion for the Treasury.

ABSOLUTELY INSANE.
THE HOUSE DEMOCRATIC ****WHIP**** WAS THROWING THE FUNDRAISING BASH THAT KEPT DEMOCRATS FROM VOTING TO SEND THE HEGSETH IMPEACHMENT VOTE TO THE FLOOR.
Katherine Clark is the Democratic Whip in the House, and it is thus her responsibility to ensure members are there to vote.
Clark is also a founding member of EDW, which hosted an event tonight from 4:30pm to 6:30pm, overlapping with the 5:30pm vote on the Hegseth impeachment.
Of the 11 members who missed the Hegseth vote, 8 have received support from EDW or its AIPAC-tied super PAC EDW Action. Of those 8, two are sitting board members.

So to confirm 2 loss Bama is.
1 spot ahead of undefeated UCLA.
2 spots ahead of 1-loss Notre Dame, who just beat the #1 team in the country.
3 spots ahead of Texas, who has the same amount of losses and way more impressive wins.
5 spots ahead of 2-loss Tennessee, who beat the shit out of them.
6 spots ahead of 1-loss defending champion Indiana, who dropped 5 spots after a bye.
Sureeeeeeeeeeeee

NEW: The @nytimes confirms that ICE deliberately electronically "disappeared" tens of thousands of people in detention and ordered contractors to refuse to reveal where they're held to family or lawyers.
30% of all immigrants detained in ICE jails now have their location hidden.

MAGA Christians are always screaming about how we need to put Christ back in Christmas…
And I’m like…after the evil shitshow you’ve put this country through over the last decade…maybe you should focus on putting Christ back in Christians.

The Democratic Party needs a new and bold direction. I will not support Chuck Schumer’s reelection as Democratic leader.

I’m amused to hear Eduardo Bolsonaro say he doesn’t “fear” Democrats! Well, you should, buddy. That shellacking your Republican friends took last week should tell you what’s coming in 2028. Trump can’t protect you forever, and unlike Republicans, we won’t let the American taxpayer keep paying for your life. Keep digging that hole. Deportation is coming.

We are proud to endorse @DonforOhio in #OH15!
Don Leonard rejects AIPAC and the Israel lobby outright. He supports a full arms embargo and calls the slaughter in Gaza what it is: a genocide. Don believes that American tax dollars should fund healthcare, housing, and education for working families here at home, not forever wars abroad.
The incumbent, Rep. Mike Carey, has received nearly $100,000 from pro-Israel PACs and votes in lock-step for the AIPAC agenda. Carey voted to defund colleges and universities that boycott Israel, a direct attack on free speech. He backed the 2027 NDAA, including Section 219, which deepens Israeli military integration with our own armed forces. He consistently votes in favor of billions in unconditional weapons transfers and even voted twice to sanction the International Criminal Court for issuing arrest warrants against Israeli officials. It’s clear that Carey is prioritizing foreign interests over the people of Ohio.
It’s time for change in Ohio’s 15th congressional district. Vote Don Leonard for Congress!

Rep.-elect Don Leonard, D-Ohio, said Tuesday that senior House Democrats threatened to make his life "a living hell" and oust him in 2028 unless he backs House Democratic Leader Hakeem Jeffries, D-N.Y., for speaker. newsmax.com/newsfront/don-le…

TO EVERY NEW DEMOCRAT ELECTED IN THE HOUSE:
TELL ME SPECIFICALLY WHICH DEMS ARE THREATENING YOU TO FALL IN LINE.
IF THEY MAKE YOUR LIFE HELL, MYSELF AND ALL LEFT-WING MEDIA WILL MAKE THEIR LIVES HELL. REACH OUT.
Incoming Rep. Don Leonard says top House Democrats have threatened to “make [his] life a living hell” and cost him re-election if he continues attaching conditions to his support for Hakeem Jeffries for speaker.
His conditions: 1) a vote on an amendment to end Citizens United and 2) “end U.S. support for the war in Iran and the country, Israel, that led us into it.”
He says Jeffries is refusing to meet with him and the threats are like something “out of a movie.”
