Fellow goths ask: can she inform on her coworkers to s...

TODAY: Alex is joined by Jacob Morrison of the excellent Valley Labor Report to discuss the recent Longshoremen strike, their tentative agreement after winning higher wages, and the continued fight for the future of their jobs.

"Anyone who murders Kamala Harris would be an American hero" (preview)

#654 They can debunk it all. Go ahead, call us racist bigots! We're spreading misinformation !!!!!

TODAY: We cover the right’s response to Kamala’s overperformance in the debate, with the cope reaching “Haitian pogrom” levels. Did Kamala hire a rogue gaffer to distract Trump with lights?

#651 You'd be well served to kiss my ass you jerk off (preview)
