I think Americans have it all wrong. You are blaming CEOs for the poor service they offer. Wrong. You should grab your politicians by the balls and demand consumer protection. It’s literally what they are elected to do. You vote for them to do that but corporations bribe them to ignore your needs.

🚨BREAKING: A reporter asked Mike Johnson today, “Should we bother asking you a question about Jared Kushner treasonously manipulating US foreign policy behind Marco Rubio’s back with billions in laundered bribes sitting in secret bank accounts, or have you not heard about it yet?"

Ossoff: "It's the most corrupt administration of all time & everybody knows it. While the crook president & his crook family rake in billions from all over the world, you pay more for everything... they lied us into war & spent most of the last year covering up for the world's most famous pedophile"

Probably the most brilliant idea i have read on a post..

Every election should have a “none of the above” option and if that gets the most votes then they have to do the election again with new candidates

On this day in 1994, the Clinton administration's heathcare reform plan was declared "dead" by Congress. Over 30 years later, the US is still the only industrialized country without universal healthcare. This should be a national outrage.

One of the worst things Canada imported from the US is car dependency. It is both financially and ecologically unsustainable that is bankrupting our cities. If want to build Canada strong, with more affordable and beautiful neighborhoods, we need to fully reject the US scam of car-centric cities.

The president banned reporters for asking questions. He can’t defend his record. And if you can’t take the heat, then get out of the kitchen.

Your regular reminder: If the Russians stop fighting, the war ends. If the Ukrainians stop fighting, their land will be occupied, their leaders will be killed, their history and language will be erased, their children will be kidnapped to serve Russia.

But what about the freedom to drink uninspected raw milk and pay thousands of dollars in medical bills for uncontrolled diarrhea or possible paralysis or kidney failure? Murika! We don’t need some fancy Frenchman to tell us how to drink our milk safely!!

Chris Mason reposted

FDA (20 years ago): This milk has been sourced from a meticulously inspected dairy farm, and has been through a certified pasteurization process. FDA (today): Look, it's liquid, and it's from a cow. At least that's what they tell us. It's fine, probably.

According to a new UN report, global warming will reach at least 1.8 degrees Celsius, even in the best-case scenario. The authors warn that "there are no good outcomes above 1.5 degrees Celsius."

My grocery store is doing its part to cut prices. They have one aisle now labeled “infectious meat,” another with recalled products, and an “explosive diarrhea” discount vegetable area. #MAHA

For those of you that haven't read it, Chapter 10 of Project 2025 was literally about creating food insecurity by cutting safety nets and slashing regulations and restrictions on food production. No, we weren't overreacting to Project 2025.

Just 10 billionaires have already poured nearly $670 MILLION into this year's midterms. In the entire 2008 presidential cycle, the last election before Citizens United, total billionaire spending was $16 million. If you're wondering what the real threat to "election integrity" is, it's Big Money.

"Donald Trump announced a new 50% tariff on automobiles and crucial raw materials from Canada". I may not be an economist but putting 50% tariffs on the raw materials your factories use only hurts your own economy. But I'm not a stable genius.

I don’t get any of this. She’s roughly the same age MLK when he gave his I Have a Dream speech. It feels like people are saying “poor Natalie” because she’s a white, blond woman. She’s got agency and can make her own decisions. Stop infantilizing her. FFS

When did it become normalized for the President of the United States to threaten to "bomb the shit out of" our allies—our *allies*—without that immediately leading to a serious conversation about whether he's mentally fit to serve as president

Social Security has been America’s most effective anti-poverty program since 1935. Last year, it lifted 23.5 million people out of poverty, including 16.5 million seniors. Remember this when Republican leaders suggest raising the retirement age or cutting your benefits.

There was a time when auto accidents killed over 50,000 Americans each year. Laws mandated seatbelts, which research demonstrated effective, saving hundreds of thousands of lives. Now let’s talk about vaccines.
