“We need to start, now, to reduce CO2 emissions from fossil-fuels, by at least 5% per year. This must happen in order to have a chance to avoid unmanageable & extremely costly climate impacts affecting all people in the world.” PIKs J. Rockström @theguardian.com www.theguardian.com/environment/...

Proud of you, #Charlotte!!

Remember: The oligarchs who control our economy and democracy seek to divide us so they can become more powerful. They want us to turn on each other so we don't look up and see where all the wealth and power have gone. Don't fall for it.

Is that jerk aiming a fully automatic weapon at the ready for someone who allegedly honked a horn? That's assault!

Between Thanksgiving and Cyber Monday, join us in hitting pause on buying from corporations that enable Trump’s fascist agenda: weaintbuyingit.com?utm_source=i...

Das Bild einer Entfremdung: Die Stipendiaten der Deutschlandstiftung Integration verlassen bei der Rede des Bundeskanzlers den Saal. Viele wollen es nicht verstehen oder wahr haben, aber die Äußerungen des Kanzlers haben enorme Kränkungen verursacht.

A House panel is holding a hearing on a proposed ban on Congressional stock trading. This ban is long overdue. Why should members of Congress be able to use privileged information to make money on the stock market, while they’re supposed to be working for you?

Poverty is a policy choice. Concentrated wealth is a policy choice. Inequality is a policy choice. None of it is natural or inevitable. Remember: We have the power to build a system that serves the many, not the powerful few.

The corruption is staggering. As you pay more for health care, groceries, and utilities, Donald Trump and his administration gets kickbacks with your taxpayer dollars.

Five corporations control 90% of the US media market. Airlines merged from 12 major carriers in 1980 to 4 today. Four giants control 80% of meat processing. A handful of companies control the pharmaceutical industry. The evidence of corporate concentration is everywhere.

I voted today! @aftynbehn.bsky.social TN CD-7 Go early!

Pope Leo XIV today backed the U.S. Roman Catholic bishops' rare statement criticizing the Trump administration's immigration and mass deportation policies and called on immigrants to be treated with "dignity."

Again, it is unbelievable that this man is permitted to walk free after causing the deaths of potentially millions of people. www.nytimes.com/2025/11/18/u...

Ted Cruz said "stop attacking pedophiles!" Freudian slip? I don't care- this should be on every Democrats ad campaign! I'm so sick and tired of them leaving very great comebacks and clapbacks on the table. youtu.be/S2kuerg3sN4?...

Die Kürzung der Ticketsteuer fürs Fliegen führt zu Mindereinnahmen von 350.000.000 Euro im Bundeshaushalt. Das ist genau der Betrag, um den die Bundesförderung für das Deutschlandticket gekürzt worden ist. Prioritäten. So wichtig.

Mob boss attacks female reporter again for her “attitude” and says he will ask his FCC commissioner to look into revoking her company’s broadcast license.

Is it appropriate for your family to do business in Saudi Arabia while you’re president? And Your Royal Highness, the U.S. intelligence concluded you orchestrated the brutal murder of a journalist. 9-11 families are furious.. Trump: Fake news. ABC fake news — one of the worst.

I think the President of the US responding to a question about the murder of a journalist with "A lot of people didn't like that gentleman" is probably pretty bad.

REMEMBER THIS FROM 2020❓ A forensic pathologist who observed the autopsy of Jeffrey Epstein tells 60 Minutes the evidence released so far points more to murder than suicide in his view. www.cbsnews.com/news/did-jef...

SNAP is a lifeline for workers in low-wage jobs. Meanwhile, CEOs are paid 280x as much as the typical worker. Don’t be angry at workers for using food stamps. Be angry at the corporations paying them so little that they need them.

How the fuck does Larry Summers still have a job

Grades don’t even remotely work this way. What’s worse, all the data shows that they undercut genuine education. But can’t let that get in the way of punching down at kids with special needs in the name of looking tough on wokeness. So tired of all these “serious people” ghouls.

NEW: Epstein survivors release the most powerful PSA I have ever seen. Make this go viral so every member of the House of Representatives sees it.

When former Harvard President Lawrence H. Summers was pursuing a romantic relationship with a woman he described as a mentee, he turned to a longtime associate for guidance: Jeffrey E. Epstein. Dhruv T. Patel and Cam N. Srivastava report.

Larry Summers is a grotesque buffoon who has repeatedly been granted power over others he didn’t deserve and that he abused. He’s also much closer to the internal norm and ideal of the intensely predatory, opportunistic, and vapid academic field of economics than his colleagues want to concede.

The Harvard Crimson has ID'ed and published the name of a well-known economist who was the subject of emails between Larry Summers and Epstein. Born in China, she did her B.A. – Ph.D. at Harvard. The code name that Summers and Epstein used in their emails about her was "peril." What a vile pig.

“Parents who, after consulting with a doctor and a psychologist, allow their 15-year-old child to transition commit child abuse. The child is too young to consent!” --Megyn R. Kelly “Grown men who have sex with your 15-year-old? Big whoop! It’s not like she’s 8. LOL!” --Also Megyn R. Kelly

Hey Megyn Kelly, 14-year-old Eloise would like a word: “If my voice makes you uncomfortable, good… because the minute adults start defending predators by defending the age of a child, you’re not protecting the truth, you’re protecting the predator.” Sound up! 🔥🔊 1/2

Amazon announced 14,000 layoffs. Its CEO made over $40M last year. UPS announced 48,000 layoffs. Its CEO made over $24M last year. Intel announced 20,000 layoffs. Its new CEO's pay package is valued at nearly $69M. This is what I mean when I say the system is rigged.

Turns out the guy that is saying everybody is going to leave NYC is engaged for 4 years to a woman (so her ex-husband has to keep paying alimony and child support) that lives in NYC and will stay there. Interesting how many MAGA don't live together. www.irishstar.com/culture/ente...

Starbucks’ CEO makes 6,666x what the average @sbworkersunited.org barista does. It would take less than one day of sales to finalize a fair contract. Baristas at Starbucks corporate stores nationwide are on strike to fight this corporate greed and get the fair contract they deserve.

🤬🤬

Official U.S. Government account refers to its citizens as "imbecilic morons".

Melania Trump at the very least witnessed Jeffrey Epstein’s sex trafficking of children. It is creepy that such a person would be involved in rescuing Ukrainian children who are kidnapped by Putin or have anything to do with foster care children.

Disney has hiked prices and laid off hundreds of workers this year. Yet Disney paid its CEO $41B in 2024. It just reported a 36% increase in net profits for parks and streaming. And it plans to double stock buybacks next year. Remember this as Disney turns to AI.

Priorities.

The American left is still to the right of most of the European spectrum.

You hate to see it. ::looks again::

It’s almost that time for a vote to release the #EpsteinFiles

AOC: "It is unconscionable that what we are debating right now is legislation that will give 8 senators over $1 million a piece & we're robbing people of their food assistance & healthcare to pay for it. How can we vote to enrich ourselves by stealing from the American people?"

As more and more files come out, Ghislaine Maxwell has less and less leverage for a pardon or commutation. Things are really going to start heating up.

If **Jeffrey Epstein** thinks you're a evil and demented sociopath, the odds are overwhelming that you are, in fact, an evil and demented sociopath.

This is way worse for civic rights and German democracy than you might fathom.

HRW: Israel responsible for crimes of its soldiers and officers - https://www.middleeasteye.net/live-blog/live-blog-update/hrw-israel-responsible-crimes-its-soldiers-and-officers

People are saying Schumer caved to keep the Filibuster, or because the Airline busses threatened to jank contributions to the 8 Trump supporters. Are these the best explanations? Or could something else be at play?

Missouri's governor recently authorized the state's National Guard to assist ICE with clerical duties. Black police officers fear the trust they've built with communities of color could take years to rebuild. n.pr/3XqycYF
