  • House Minority Leader Jeffries, NJ Sen. Booker begin sit-in protest on Capitol steps

  • You do understand that Democrats have minority, right? The Democrats forced multiple 15-day votes that went nowhere. Al Green introduced articles of impeachment that will not get anywhere. What else do you expect them to do while in minority?

  • Right, but I’m saying the benefit is the same. They wouldn’t be able to effectively stop the Republicans from voting by force. It would only increase awareness around the protest of the social programs cuts, just like this sit-in.

  • They could go on strike, but I’m absolutely certain they’d be arrested if they blocked the entrances to the Capitol building. It would only generate awareness, just like this sit-in.

  • What do you think they should they do instead?

  • I’m more getting at tipped worker vs fair wages for servers. The minimum wage in the US is $7.25/hr, but tipped worker minimum wage is $2.13/hr. States that have shifted to fair wages now must pay their workers standard minimum wage. Most eateries in those states have increased their prices 15-20%, and inform customers that the gratuity is now included in the meal price. It’s no different on your wallet, but could account for some of the increase in price point depending on the location of the establishment.

  • Legitimate question here. What’s stopping researchers from creating their own federated publishing system for academic journals?

  • It’s prepared food, so the price also depends on wage increase and changes to tip structure in that state. Several states began fair wage for servers after 2008, so the gratuity may now be included in the price of the meal.

  • Dem Senator Says Party Needs to Stop Attacking ‘Oligarchy’ and Focus on Losing ‘Woke’ Reputation

  • I was only saying it’s possible that’s the message she’s getting from her constituents, which is any resident of Michigan. It was educated speculation, not fact, nor is it my personal opinion of these issues. I’d like to see Democrats become an opposition party, as far from the Republicans as possible, just the same as you.

  • I completely agree, but it’s also likely a reasonable representation of her Michigan constituents. It’s not a terribly diverse state.

  • Confidence in Trump's handling of the U.S. economy plummets, new polls show

  • He’s doing exactly what he’s supposed to do. Run chaotic interference through his cult of personality while signing every executive order The Heritage Foundation writes for him. Oh, and give Musk the keys to the independent agencies that oversee and investigate his businesses as a way to repay him for buying the election.

  • Trump is eligible to become president. The Constitution disqualifies him from being elected president. At least that’s the angle I’ve heard from the far-right.

    Edit: I don’t know what the downvotes are about. I absolutely loathe the man. I’m just sharing why they’re selling the merch. This is what they think.
