The ‘scared majority’ could deliver a landslide victory for Trump (rant)

Tina Marie (Ms. Cat)

If you believe that Donald Trump & Co represent the working class, congratulations! They’ve successfully pulled the wool over your eyes! Trump’s tax cuts benefitted the rich and his tariffs (and Biden’s) hurt American consumers, not China!

The author is right about one thing—“fear”. The xenophobic fearmongering about illegal immigrants is outlandish, considering Biden has been deporting them on par with Trump (not to mention the ones being detained at GTMO)!

Another thing, for as long as I’ve been able to vote, neither party has represented the working class! Read about the Powell Memorandum!

Tina Marie (Ms. Cat)

Axios (10/31/23) reported that in a two-week period, TikTok saw “nearly four times the number of views to TikTok posts using the hashtag #StandwithPalestine globally compared to posts using the hashtag #StandwithIsrael.” As a result, the conservative outrage machine kicked into high gear.

The perceived performance of pro-Palestinian content on the platform depends on how you parse TikTok’s data.

Railroads Have Invested Heavily in Congress. They Need Their Payoff in the Senate.

Tina Marie (Ms. Cat)

A showdown over a looming railroad strike heads to the Senate floor this week, after a group of progressive Democrats, led by Rep. Jamaal Bowman, D-N.Y., pushed to modify a tentative agreement to include seven days of sick leave. The expanded agreement passed the House 220-206 on Wednesday, and the fight now moves to the Senate, where it remains unclear if there is enough Republican support to overcome a filibuster and send the agreement to President Joe Biden’s desk.
