Republicans: “We believe in free markets.”

Workers: “Ok, I'd like to go work for my firm's competitor without legal threats.”

Republicans: “No, not that free market.”

Lina Khan was appointed by Joe Biden to lead the FTC in 2021. Elections matter and so does who appoints government officials.

This is huge news for workers.

FTC bans noncompete agreements, making it easier for workers to quit. Here's what to know. -

CarolDanvers,

@TonyStark This has happened to me and I’m really thankful to see non-competes go away. They’re terrible for workers.

Let’s all commit to keeping Republicans out of office.

Thanks, President Biden.

This is the future Republicans want for everyone who can become pregnant. And it’s the present in Republican-run states.

In addition to our climate future depending on electing Democrats, your rights and the rights of others depend on it as well. Vote like other people’s lives depend on it. They do.

This will pave the way for better understanding and addressing unique health challenges faced by women, leading to improved health outcomes and equity.

Quite a bit better than what his predecessor is up to.

What would Democrats have done about the SCOTUS? Uh, not appointed 3 right wing wacko justices after the 2016 election? Can’t believe I’m still getting this after 8 years.

CarolDanvers,

@JeanPDeliet @pshread @ginaintheburg @TonyStark The initial toot is about who Democrats would have appointed to SCOTUS. All these people prattling on about their own personal junk really tell you who they are.

Joe Biden is an engaging, intelligent person with a sense of humor and the experience and temperament to be President, as we’ve seen. Trump is a nightmarish, unhinged criminal who wants to rule over America under his fascist dictatorship while he knocks off enemies with no repercussions if he feels like it.

It’s not hyperbole to say that Republicans are trying to rob us of our rights. Not only abortion rights, but Republicans are coming after access to contraception and fertility treatments. Here are 3 bills you can tell your Senators and House Representative to support or you will be working to unseat them.

S. 3612- Access to Family Building Act
https://www.congress.gov/bill/118th-congress/senate-bill/3612

S.1999- Right to Contraception Act

S.701- Women’s Health Protection Act of 2023
https://www.congress.gov/bill/118th-congress/senate-bill/701

CarolDanvers,

@TonyStark Just wait until the women who have to live through the tragedy of miscarriage in 10-15% of pregnancies are called murderers.

Enough is enough. Call your electeds.

“What good things has Joe Biden done?” is a question I see a lot. Here’s 30, including expanded overtime guarantees for millions, the first over-the-counter birth control pill hitting U.S. stores in 2024, gun violence prevention and gun safety got a boost, renewable power is the no. 2 source of electricity in the U.S. — and climbing, plus quite a few more.

One of my favorite political action organizations, Swing Left, has announced a strategy for 2024. They're focused on 12 states that are critical to winning back the House for Democrats, keeping the narrow Democratic majority in the Senate, reelecting Biden-Harris, and building Democratic power in the states.

They plan to double down on supporting and building local grassroots groups, a key to current and future wins. It’s a great organization to get involved with.

Yes, there are 4 Supreme Court justices who are totally fine with Texas making its own laws that go against federal government border sovereignty and also with drowning migrant kids fleeing horrible conditions.

I kind of doubt my followers need this reminder, but I’m writing it anyway. Presidents nominate Supreme Court justices. These 4 were picked by Republicans.

Divided SCOTUS grants Biden administration request to cut Texas’ razor wire:

CarolDanvers,

@TonyStark The way to avoid this is the one with the least amount of trouble attached and also, not coincidentally, the way that Republicans desperately try and suppress: voting for Democrats.

I read Matthew Perry’s book recently. Regardless of what happened, I found his work to overcome addiction inspiring.

I usually avoid saying anything about celebrity deaths, but this is sad.

A wonderfully funny guy.

CarolDanvers,

@TonyStark Can't stop thinking about him and the rest of the cast and crew and his friends and family who must be so sad. What a tragedy. I've been watching Friends as a comfort show for a few months now and those of us in a certain age range grew up with it. It seems strange and unreal.

Only Tom Emmer and Austin Scott didn’t vote to overturn legitimate United States election results.

However, Emmer is a huge proponent of crypto currencies and a libertarian fruitcake.

Can’t imagine at this point who they go with.

@TonyStark NY Congressman Dan Goldman had this to say Saturday morning: “Trump’s allies are endangering national security. That’s an important point to focus on now, as we begin to discuss the upcoming elections. Who makes you feel safer? It’s not the folks who can’t even pick a leader in a moment of crisis.”

It's . With the increase in book banning over last year, we all need to fight for the freedom to read what we want.

Go to your local library. Get involved in local school board meetings.

Ask questions. Fight bans. Stand up for marginalized groups that are most often the targets of bans on books.

Please take action.
