"So there it is, the morbid phenomenon of late Trumpism on full display: Smearing a survivor of child sexual abuse; running an ad featuring a primary enabler of the abuse; and complaining that some decent people in his party are offended by this."

The amount of Amazon workers relying on SNAP and Medicaid has nearly tripled since 2020. — while Amazon’s annual profits soared by over 550%.
It’s the same story everywhere: corporate profits are at record highs, while workers’ share of the economy is at a record low.
We must unrig the system.
El-Sayed: "DOGE never actually resulted in the outcomes that they said it was gonna result in. The dividend never happened. Instead what we got is cyclosporiasis and people sitting on toilets because they gotta dodge lettuce in the United States of America."
In my decades of public service, I have rarely been as angry as I was the day the damning inspector general’s report was released about the EPA's response to the World Trade Center collapse.

The NFL kicks off tonight with the Seahawks taking on the Patriots.
The Seahawks just became the latest team to take on private equity investment.
But private equity isn't just sinking its teeth into the NFL — it's investing in other sports leagues and countless other industries.
Be warned.
So much more than a Country Music Superstar.
Philanthropist, humanitarian, defender of diversity & fierce advocate for the working class, she helped fund the Moderna Covid vaccine & donated 332+ million books to children. Thank you, Dolly. We will always love you.♥️

I spoke with Dr. Annie Andrews, the Democratic candidate for Senate in South Carolina.
Unike Darline Graham, Andrews knows her stuff.
Super impressive candidate in a race that could be surprisingly competitive.
Happy Saturday! 🤗💙

Food companies wanted deregulation. Now there are dozens of recalls across the country.
Mining companies wanted deregulation. Now the black lung rate is at a 45-year high.
Financial companies wanted deregulation. Now financial losses to fraud are the highest on record.
Noticing a pattern?
As the national debt hits 40 TRILLION, Donald Trump does not want to hear about “AFFORDABILITY.” His stupidity and complete disconnect from reality are making the entire nation suffer. This pathetic excuse for a human being should be removed from office before he can do any further damage.
here's today's post: "no one gives a shit about your White House helipad, you out-of-touch fuck" — fix the country you broke, asshole.

In 1971, Daniel Ellsberg leaked The Pentagon Papers exposing the lies told to the public about the disastrous Viet Nam war, forever becoming a hero in history. Now... someone PLEASE leak #TheEPSTEINFiles & end the biggest coverup scandal of all-time! 🙏
Google co-founder Sergey Brin has now pumped over $100M into stopping California's billionaire tax ballot initiative.
So he and his fellow oligarchs can't afford a wealth tax, but they'll spend a fortune buying elections?
The five biggest defense contractors spent more than $100B on buybacks and dividends since 2020.
I have a simple question for defense contractors:
If taxpayers are giving you billions to build military equipment, why are you buying back your own stock?
This needs to stop.
RFK Jr. is not a doctor. He’s a politician lecturing people about medicine while attacking Dr. Anthony Fauci, a physician and infectious disease expert.
Facts matter. Science matters. Expertise matters.
And maybe leave the brain worms out of the medical advice🙄

OPINION: "There is no doubt that the war with Iran that most Americans did not want is going poorly. But it takes a special type of incompetence to be the leader of a military and have a lack of awareness for how badly that affects morale." thehill.com/opinion/nati...
Sen. Mark Kelly: "The president has spent a good portion of his adult life sitting on gold toilets and doesn't know what hardship is, and doesn't understand our service members. In fact, it's insulting what he said -- that the deployment wasn't long enough. He doesn't know sacrifice."
The 60 largest planned data centers could produce the same amount of carbon dioxide emissions as 27 coal plants.
Big Tech CEOs are polluting our planet and selling out our future to line their own pockets.
We need a data center moratorium — now.
