    New from me: The AFP aren't ruling out whether more people, including a police officer, were involved in the media being tipped-off about union raids, that led to a senior staff member of employment minister Michaelia Cash's office resigning.

    This is the kind of PC excess that eventually turned much of the heartland against the Democrats.

    Conor, with potato chip bag over head: Yeah, I actually do understand the point I said I didn't, I just think O POTATO CHIP!

    Replying to @JRubinBlogger @senatorshoshana
    I think you’re right that *that* is the hope... but I don’t know that this actually gets anti-NRA folks closer to making them a pariah.

    Conor, wearing a bag of potato chips on his head:

    I’m confused. Say that caused every company to sever ties w/ the org. Does that weaken it in some way I’m missing? Seems like it’ll have the same amount in dues and the same number of supporters. What’s the strategy? (Is there a strategy I’m missing?)

    Segregationist "right to work" laws. 50 years of attacks on worker organizing. The stonewalling of Merrick Garland. In Janus v. AFSCME, we are witnessing the culmination of the billionaires' anti-worker agenda.

    They hate us for smiling, they hate us for crying, they hate us for speaking, they hate us for being alive - they hate us. What's important to remember is that their argument against us is so weak and futile that they have to resort to attacking the people delivering the message.

    y’all want them to live through watching their friends die and then shame them for short moments of happiness? WHAT??

    Whenever I see Marco "Look at How Holy I Am!" Rubio sanctimoniously tweet scripture, I think of other scripture: "Be careful not to practice your righteousness in front of others to be seen by them. If you do, you will have no reward from your Father in heaven." Matthew 6:1

    REPORT: Racists, bigots, and misogynists hate working with people who aren't those things. ALSO: Bullies hate getting beat up.

    The majority of moderates and conservatives are hesitant about being themselves at work and for good reason; e.g., “there is a concerted purge of conservative employees at Apple.”

    Hark, ! You are not discriminating against the NRA if you stop offering them special deals you don't offer to the rest of us. If anything, you are currently discriminating against the rest of your customers by offering those deals to the NRA.

    This is not a smart human.

    Today, every single school in West Virginia is closed because public sector employees are sick of hearing how, in the richest country on Earth, we can't afford to pay teachers a living wage. workers stand in solidarity with them!
