Working class hitting the streets of London today. Teachers, railworkers, ppl being robbed by the rich every single day of their lives. But we have the power to change things. If we stand together. If we fight. This is huge. This is what solidarity looks like. #EnoughlsEnough pic.twitter.com/D2uluV5PEP

The struggle is real
My shade-tree mechanic, the guy who keeps my cars alive, took possession of my old Accord almost two months ago. He’s a really sweet man, and the other day, he and his wife went shopping at one of the big regional malls. (One that’s known as a center for tri-state car theft rings.)
You guessed it: The car got stolen. In fact, the ’97 Accord is the most stolen car in America.
All his tools and his new baby’s carseat were in the car. I feel so bad for him. He juggles an assortment of part-time jobs just to stay afloat. It will take him a while to bounce back from this.
Poverty sucks.
It just shouldn’t be this hard to survive
In the richest nation on earth, a man died in the freezing cold Mississippi woods on Christmas Day while trying to walk home to his family.
They had been unable to wire money to him or help him get a bus ticket because he didn’t have a current ID.https://t.co/50kYKEP3r9

Hertz so bad
A lawsuit! None of the people responsible for this will ever be arrested or prosecuted. When people say crime is a social construct this is what they mean: when a corporation accuses you of stealing you’re caged. When a corporation lies and has you caged, they hand over some cash pic.twitter.com/sqkE01822U

More stupid showboating from Adams
Who decides if they’re mentally ill? Cops? And what about their rights?
New from me and @njvadala: New York Mayor Eric Adams announced a plan for law enforcement to involuntarily hospitalize people experiencing homelessness and mental illness. We break down what it means and where Philly stands on the approach. https://t.co/9BNGurasro

Same old, same old
Because if they’re not for destroying Social Security and Medicare, what are they good for?

They feed us
And they don’t get paid enough for it:
Can you believe it? These NY state farm workers were harvesting cabbages last week for 8 hours on a day that temps ranged between 28°-40°. They earn $10 a one ton bin. They say the rate hasn't gone up for more than 5 years. #WeFeedYou pic.twitter.com/NeJncwjhOf

Like Dachau
They did abortions on women without their knowledge or consent.
BREAKING: An 18-month Senate investigation finds that migrant women detained at the Irwin County Detention Center endured excessive, unnecessary gynecological procedures, often without consent.
This confirms earlier reports by Project South & partners.https://t.co/9V3Jq12LuP
