The sheer AUDACITY of Chuck Schumer.
He helped force Joe Biden out, lecturing everyone about the need for new leadership.
Now he's 75, has spent 50 YEARS in office, and thinks HE deserves to lead the Senate again.
Apparently, the expiration date only applies to OTHER people.
The hypocrisy is DISGUSTING.
I haven't forgotten who stabbed Biden in the back. And I NEVER will. 🤷

I have a soft spot for printed ephemera like this.
Bold geometry, playful symmetry, wonderful colour combinations and characterful typography. A little graphic-design jackpot.

Thank you whoever did this. OMG
Many of us remember vividly how @BernieSanders fought the battle alone. Long distance runner. That's what a legend he is.

Happy Birthday Dorothy Day
“It is no use to say that we are born 2000 years too late to give room to Christ. Nor will those who live at the end of the world have been born too late. Christ is always with us, always asking for room in our hearts.”
~Dorothy Day
Born OTD in 1897, Dorothy Day was a radical Catholic social change activist, widely considered one of the great Catholic lay leaders of the 20th century. Co-founder of the Catholic Worker movement and the publication that became its voice, she worked indefatigably to promote peace, social justice, non-violence, and direct aid to the poor and destitute.

Democrats not only won the majority—voters elected populist economic fighters to the Senate.
Let’s get to work. 💪

This is in keeping with the nihilism of personalities such as Trump. I wrote an essay for the @atlantic in 2016 on Trump likely to act like Mussolini in some ways and I ended by warning the GOP that the parties that backed and collaborated with Fascism were destroyed after 1945.

In Michigan and Texas, the Dems vowed to Break Up Big Medicine.
In Iowa and Maine, Dems ran to protect Social Security by making billionaires pay their fair share.
In North Carolina and Alaska, Dems pushed back against grocery mergers.
Economic populism was a winning strategy.
