Attention MAGA faithful ... your king, @realDonaldTrump, has only been tolerated by Republicans because he has what Grover Norquist in 2012 called "enough working digits" to sign tax cuts for the super-rich, deregulation for polluters, and to nominate Federalist Society judges.

He was really useful to Paul Ryan who couldn't get elected Vice President alongside Mitt Romney because it was too obvious that they would govern for the super rich. Better to pull it off with a fake "populist" howling at the moon to entertain the base... https://t.co/Sw6AuUCJ2u
Really, really useful ... because he clearly shares those race-based anxieties and rages... https://t.co/mlsG1zjGSc
Thanks to Trump, D.C. Swamp Republicans have milked y'all's immigration panic, Fear of a Black Planet, freakout over liberated women, wig-outs over gay marriage and trans people in the bathroom etc. to deliver everything the real billionaires wanted. https://t.co/z2WU4B5dnH
So it should come as no surprise to you all that the Supreme Court justices Mitch snatched up like a constant Grinchly Christmas? They don't work for Trump. They work for their real bosses... the Federalist Society and you guessed it ... the super rich. https://t.co/hFMkhERxDi
Once Trump handed Gorsuch that stolen seat, and signed off on Schlitz Malt Whimper and the handmaid getting lifetime seats? They could give a damn about him and his frantic quest to stay president. So really? They were never gonna help him. Like ... ever. https://t.co/Zt4nnGUEim
Trump is likely to continue putting on his "overthrow the government" show for you guys ... but you should know that that's just because he's terrified of being prosecuted and also to get you to give him money. Don't say you weren't warned! https://t.co/XmMFWQHCRS
And all that your 126 Republican legislators at the federal level and your anti-voting state AGs will have accomplished will have been to subvert our democracy, destroy their own legacies and likely foment violence, and you'll take some of the blame for that. It's a catastrophe.
And all for literally nothing. Nothing but mass viral death in numbers equivalent to World War II, Cancer and Heart Disease, economic misery on a Great Depression-like scale, global humiliation and the collapse of a once great political party into a white nationalist mess.

1/ Imagine that as soon as the referendum result the EU announced that it was looking forward to the end of free movement of UK citizens in the EU


2/ Imagine if the EU said finally all those retired Brits in the EU27 could go home

3/ Imagine if the EU said finally all those Brits in the EU could stop driving down wages, taking jobs and stop sending benefits back to the UK

4/ Imagine if the EU said it was looking to use UK citizens as “bargaining chips” to get a better trade deal

5/ Imagine if the EU told UK citizens in the EU27 that they could no longer rely on established legal rights and they would have to apply for a new status which they have to pay for for less rights
We’ve been getting calls and outreach from Queens residents all day about this.

The community’s response? Outrage.


Amazon is a billion-dollar company. The idea that it will receive hundreds of millions of dollars in tax breaks at a time when our subway is crumbling and our communities need MORE investment, not less, is extremely concerning to residents here.

When we talk about bringing jobs to the community, we need to dig deep:
- Has the company promised to hire in the existing community?
- What’s the quality of jobs + how many are promised? Are these jobs low-wage or high wage? Are there benefits? Can people collectively bargain?

Displacement is not community development. Investing in luxury condos is not the same thing as investing in people and families.

Shuffling working class people out of a community does not improve their quality of life.

We need to focus on good healthcare, living wages, affordable rent. Corporations that offer none of those things should be met w/ skepticism.

It’s possible to establish economic partnerships w/ real opportunities for working families, instead of a race-to-the-bottom competition.
