@rbreich.bsky.socialReposted by @libraryjayne.bsky.socialThis Labor Day (and all other days): Thank the workers who serve you. Appreciate the workers who care for you. Respect the workers who pick up your trash. Salute the workers who get you your mail. Honor the workers who teach your children. Pay all workers a living wage.

I've never seen anything like this in my 50 years in politics.
It makes Nixon look like a boy scout.
@djrothkopf.bsky.socialReposted by @libraryjayne.bsky.socialIn order to stay ahead of the curve here, I'd like to note that the U.S. has no grounds to invade Cuba, arrest or change its leaders, take control or directly influence its actions or, for that matter, to be blockading it right now forcing its people to suffer. Nor is any of that in our interest.
@jamellebouie.netReposted by @libraryjayne.bsky.socialthis is such a great encapsulation of what the various factions of the reactionary right want. i might add that they envision themselves as slave masters and the rest of us, in one way or another, as their slaves. betterdonkey.substack.com/p/the-vra-wa...
