Today's jobs report is a reminder that tax cuts for corporations and the rich don’t create jobs or grow the economy.

What's required is investment in working people — and better wages.

When workers have money to spend, the economy grows and businesses create more jobs.

Remember this.

Your regular reminder: If the Russians stop fighting, the war ends. If the Ukrainians stop fighting, their land will be occupied, their leaders will be killed, their history and language will be erased, their children will be kidnapped to serve Russia.

Dolly was such a generous philanthropist. She gave back so much because I’m sure it gave her immense joy. Anyone that came from so little can easily give so much. Makes you wonder about the likes of Bezos and Musk etc.

There are clear differences in this election, especially when it comes to healthcare. Richard Neal refuses to be in favor of a single payer system that would cut costs and the corporate bloat out of the equation. Jeromie supports and will fight for Medicare for All.

I mean, seriously. Were there politicians back in 1945 who thought "Yeah we should just reform the Schutzstaffel. It would be politically foolish to say we should defund or abolish them. I bet we can reign them in by re-writing laws that already exist. I'm sure they'll follow them this time."

The corporate money that controls so much of our politics is there by design to make you think that progressive ideas aren’t possible, when in reality they are the practical solutions we need for a functioning society.

As health insurance premiums continue to rise and corporate bloat continues to put greed over care, we have to ask ourselves how “affordable” is healthcare?

People from the Berkshires to Belchertown to West Brookfield are joining together to support Jeromie because we love this district enough to vote and fight for it.

You won’t find Jeromie on your November ballot unless you vote for him to be the Democratic Nominee on your September ballot! Make your voting plan for the September Primary and remind 5 friends to do the same. 🗳️

If we want to see more people in Congress who will co-sponsor and fight for Medicare for All, then there is a clear choice in this election. Jeromie Whalen supports Medicare for All, Richard Neal answers to big insurance companies and the pharmaceutical industry.

Jeromie says it. Richie won’t. We need to abolish and prosecute ICE. Then we need to ensure that our immigration system is rooted in humanity, expand the amount of judges hearing cases, and fight back against the administrations harmful policies.

Feeling overwhelmed with all of this. LISTEN. Another Louisiana resident (Marshawn is the only name we have) testifies against the state’s racial gerrymander, speaking truth to power up and down the hearing room and predicts how this story will end.
Speak your truth, fight and believe.

Black people are giving it these Confederates raw and uncut. This is how it’s gonna be now. You wonder what we’re thinking? It’s this.

I went because the law gives Members of Congress the right to inspect these facilities without warning.

We continue having to sue to ensure the administration complies with the law. We continue winning.
Judge restores lawmakers’ unfettered access to ICE detention facilities

I'm not sure how you can be against removing this man from office right now. What will it take? A nuke being dropped? It's too late then. The purpose of impeachment and the 25th Amendment is to prevent that type of thing from happening, not just to react to it.

🚨ENDORSEMENT ALERT🚨 Much love to the College Democrats of Mass for believing in what we’re building. As a teacher, I’ve seen too many moments where younger generations aren’t taken seriously when they deserve the respect and a voice in shaping the direction of this country.
