White evangelicals are the most supportive of abortion bans. Almost all want to see 15 wk ban. More than half said providing an abortion should be a felony. These views put them at odds w/ Americans from every other faith background. @bobsmietana, @RNS religionnews.com/2022/07/11/sur…

"In 1877, one million workers went on strike and fought police and federal troops in cities across America. The monikers “Great Upheaval” and “Great Railroad Strike” undersell what verged on a second Civil War — this time pitting labor against capital." jacobin.com/2022/07/great-…

It appears to chill coverage of what is already a way too secretive subject - money going to judges- by requiring it to meet a standard of “public concern” and allowing only media to disclose the information. What about watchdog groups? Concerned citizens? Why add secrecy?

The US spends absurd amounts of money on healthcare for worse outcomes. How? All that money isn’t for “healthcare.” Pharmaceutical and insurance corporations jacked up prices to get rich. Why? Because they can. Profit and healthcare don’t mix. We need #MedicareForAll.

Shipping vulnerable migrants across the country is not a campaign tactic. It is human trafficking. It is the abuse of dozens of human beings and a celebration of that abuse for political gain. As with all proto-fascist movements, the cruelty—and the violence—is the point.

Anti-democratic Republicans are talking about repealing the 17th amendment so that state legislators—not voters—would name US Senators. Why? Legislatures are heavily gerrymandered to favor the GOP, which currently controls 62% of all legislative chambers. thenation.com/article/politi…

As Wisconsin's next Congressman, I will vote to codify the right to contraception, codify the right to choose, and codify the right to a same-sex marriage. Enough is enough.

GOP extremism isn’t going to give up all on its own. We gotta beat it.

Ignore word salad debates over this recession. Here's what matters: we live in a system, capitalism, that is deeply unstable, lurching from inflation to recession & back endlessly disturbing our lives, jobs, institutions. End taboo against facing that our system is our problem

It isn’t lost on me that Republican state legislators, who make over $50,000 plus expenses, complain about teachers having summers off, when they gavel out for 10 MONTHS.

Let’s pass the Paycheck Fairness Act and paid leave, raise the minimum wage to $15 an hour, and extend the Child Tax Credit — so no one has to raise a family in poverty.
