Working-class Pennsylvanian. Policy is the genome of politics, process is where it’s expressed. Prosperity trickles out from the workers, not down from the wealthy.

Cecile Richards, former Planned Parenthood president, has died | CNN Cecile Richards, the former president of Planned Parenthood, has died, her family said Monday in a statement. She was 67.

The inherent synchronicty of Cecile Richards passing on this Inauguration Day is disconcerting. Heres hoping she and MLK are looking down on this rendering of the great experiment in democracy . . And plotting. amp.cnn.com/cnn/2025/01/...

'We have harnessed the power of the atom:' Enron parody unveils at-home nuclear reactor Enron, a company that has had a satirical resurrection, unveiled the "Enron Egg," a parody product, on Monday.

As someone who sank my teeth deep into the unfolding corruption of the 2000’s, this parody holds a truly special place in my heart. www.usatoday.com/story/money/...

A nation’s ability to effect systemic change is not effected through the will of her wealthy or elected leaders, it is found within the beating heart of her workers, standing in solidarity as one voice against tyranny.

South Korea: Further protests, strikes likely nationwide through mid-December despite lifting of martial law /update 3 Further protests, strikes likely in South Korea through mid-December despite lifting of martial law. Related disruptions possible.

Imagine living in a country where the largest unions join in solidarity to stop their leadership from emboldening fascism. Trade unions, public sector unions, autoworkers and railroad workers have all united in a statewide labor strike in protest. crisis24.garda.com/alerts/2024/...

GOP lawmaker’s stunning accusation about Gaetz
GOP lawmaker’s stunning accusation about Gaetz YouTube video by CNN

The Sunday pundits replaying Sen. Markwayne Mullins diatribe on Matt Gaetz bragging that he chased his ED meds with Red Bull while showing his colleagues videos of women he’d slept with is oddly redeeming for the Oklahoma GOP after the Ryan Walters video debacle.

If the local western PA republicans do that, I don’t see their elites getting on social media and insulting working-class people constantly.

In Western PA, no the republicans don’t appear to be acquiescing to neoliberal elites at all.

Listening to pundits babble about why we lost PA working-class voters again, only 1 comment has resonated with this steel-town girl: Working people over wealthy elites.” (Rep. Jeffries)

The Dem party spouts “working-families” on the stump while vigilantly placating rich, elitist neoliberals.

Meet Ryan Walters, the Superintendent of Public Instruction in Oklahoma and possibly the nation’s next and last Secretary of Education. (That mug next to him says “if you want peace, prepare for war” in Latin.)

Warren Buffett is building the Noah's Ark of rainy-day funds. Here's why he's stacked up more than $300 billion. Warren Buffett's Berkshire Hathaway has pared key bets such as Apple and spent little on stocks, boosting its cash pile to record levels.

If so many Wall Street moguls thought Trump would be good for greed, why is America’s biggest investor divesting in droves & building what is being called “Noah’s Ark” as Wall Street braces for the impending “lost decade?” #BuyersRemorse www.businessinsider.com/warren-buffe...
