The debt, deportation, and death bill has passed. Congress further decimates care work to fund violence work.

Vital services eviscerated and ICE becomes the highest-funded federal law enforcement agency ever known. It hasn’t been sold this way, but it’s a massive public jobs program for fascists.

Primary almost everyone.
Enough is enough.

Rahm Emanuel covered up the murder of a Black teen, and shuttered public clinics and schools. Cuomo covered up COVID nursing home deaths and harassed women. These men heard "now is the time of monsters" and decided to attempt a comeback. They both belong in hell.

To be clear, these are not savings. I would save a lot of money if I didn’t pay my rent and buy food, but that really isn’t a good thing in the long run.

We are losing services and supports when doge indiscriminately cuts.

I know people are saying not to spread conspiracy theories right now, but I would like to read them.

With Prime Day next week, just keep this in mind before you click purchase:

Books are listed on sale because they can afford to undercut competition and raise their profits from carts instead of smaller bookstores who need it way more.

Anyway, buy books from small presses!
