I can’t believe I have to say this: The President should not financially benefit from the very government he controls. I’ve got a bill to stop Trump’s corruption.

DHS will require every green card applicant to leave the country before applying, even if they qualify for a green card or leaving would disqualify them. The agency has already cut green card approvals in half over the past year. Remember: it was never about legal immigration.

Food prices are skyrocketing thanks to drought conditions, Trump’s tariffs, and his war on Iran. On top of that, consolidation in our food system allows dominant firms to take advantage of these shocks and jack up prices even higher. Everyone gets squeezed while Big Ag rakes it in.

—Guy gets a potato egg and cheese taco —republicans decide to make it a campaign issue —they call him vegan instead of vegetarian even though vegans don’t eat eggs or cheese, because vegan sounds “worse” —guy isn’t even vegetarian, he just likes tacos

Trump says "everything checked out perfectly" at his Walter Reed medical exam today. But to the rest of us, it's increasingly obvious that he's become dangerously mentally unstable.

Was this Donald Trump’s most corrupt week yet? Why is the cancellation of Stephen Colbert’s show so dangerous? And why is one of the richest men in the world attacking me on Twitter? Join us on the Coffee Klatch to discuss. https://youtu.be/apR3thMMBQw

I feel like it should be a bigger deal that this is just normal process

NEW: The Israel lobby, crypto industry, and AI companies are spending millions to buy this year's midterm elections. And they're using shady campaign finance tactics to hide their involvement from the public. Watch.

Stephen Colbert aired his final show last night after Paramount fired him to appease Trump. The Ellisons are now eyeing Warner Bros — and Trump is eager to give it to them. His takeover of the media is happening in broad daylight. Here's what we can do about it.

A history of the top marginal tax rates on the wealthiest Americans: 1940: 81% 1950: 84% 1960: 91% 1970: 72% 1980: 70% 1990: 28% 2000: 40% 2010: 35% For 50 years, corporate backed politicians in Congress have slashed taxes to line the pockets of their wealthy donors.

A recent study found that AI-assisted police reports are less accurate than ones drafted by real people. This is unacceptably dangerous. We cannot allow law enforcement's insatiable desire for new technologies endanger our rights.

While Trump is turning the Republican Party into his own criminal organization, he's also creating problems for himself over the next six months. Let me explain. https://robertreich.substack.com/p/why-trumps-revenge-tour-will-come

AOC: This is what drinking water in Georgia looks like after Meta began data center construction in the community.

Corruption just right out in the open. www.nytimes.com/2026/05/20/u...

Tobacco company Reynolds American donated $5 million to Trump’s super PAC. Then, an executive and two of their lobbyists had lunch with Trump. Days later, the FDA rolled out new guidance that would allow tobacco companies to start selling e-cigarettes. Everything is for sale.

#Chlorpyrifos is a potent, broad-spectrum organophosphate insecticide used on a variety of agricultural & non-agricultural crops. While historically popular for pest control, it has faced significant regulatory restrictions & legal battles due to its well-documented neurotoxicity and health hazards.

President Trump's $1.776 billion settlement with the IRS is one of the single most corrupt acts in American history. They moved fast to avoid the scrutiny of the judicial process, and very likely violated the Constitution. This is an outrage.

Friends, a madman is in charge of the country — but almost no Republican member of Congress, no major CEO or university president or head of a major foundation seems willing to sound the alarm. These people are all cowards. Where are America's leaders? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MC0vKzRmPos

Three fertilizer producers control 90% of the market in North America. Thanks to their dominance, they can take advantage of shocks (like Trump's Iran War) and jack up prices on farmers. Nutrien, one of the biggest, saw earnings increase 631% in Q1. Farmers get squeezed while Big Ag rakes it in.

Looks like it's time for California to make good on the threat to cut off sending the tax dollars to the federal government they use to prop up the red states.

In this 1997 commencement speech, I offered a warning that America's growing economic divide would undermine the common good. If you're curious how that speech holds up 29 years later (or what I look like without a beard), watch this.

Americans are facing the highest jump in healthcare costs in 15 years, as millions struggle to cover increased costs. Meanwhile, the top six health insurers just reported $15.4 billion in first quarter earnings. Is it any wonder that 63% of Americans now support Medicare for All?

Of course, Scalise makes an Idiotic Argument…..

Abusing the authority of DOJ to charge political opponents threatens our liberty and undermines the department’s credibility. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026...

Private prison company GEO Group gave $1M+ to Trump's Super PAC in 2024 and his inauguration the following year. Not only has Trump since rewarded GEO with billions in ICE contracts, but a top former GEO executive has now been named acting ICE director. Cashing in on cruelty.

Last month's Supreme Court ruling opened the door for states to draw maps that dilute the power of voters of color. That doesn't change the fact it's discriminatory and undemocratic for politicians to manipulate elections through redistricting. Our Voting Right Project director shares the latest.

Yesterday's CPI report found inflation is now wiping out wage gains. Today's PPI report confirms that wholesale inflation has seen its highest annual increase in four years. Food, gas, and shelter costs are skyrocketing, fueled by one man's unilateral decision to go to war.

Trump hired a company that had previously worked on his private golf club for this job repainting the Reflecting Pool in DC. The company was given a no-bid contract that, according to documents reviewed by the New York Times, included a 20 percent profit margin Remember DOGE?

The national debt just crossed a once-unthinkable threshold: It now exceeds 100% of America’s GDP. But there's an important piece missing from the conversation about the debt that you should know about. Let me explain... https://robertreich.substack.com/p/what-no-one-will-tell-you-about-the

NEW: Trump claimed that drugs entering the U.S. by sea have decreased by 97% due to illegal U.S. boat strikes. The administration’s own data contradicts this claim. “It wouldn’t be the first time this administration just made something up," said IPS scholar @sanho.bsky.social in @commondreams.org.

The Trump administration's illegal cancellation of the Digital Equity Act leaves underserved communities without means to bridge the digital divide. Congress must fight for people's ability to access and navigate the Internet by reinstating grantees' funding and guarding against future budget cuts.

Key words: “by the school.” In Hollywood 80 years ago, we had very clear ideas about how to treat HUAC lapdogs and informers. No one involved in this choice should hold a job in education ever again.

The only politician that every single person in Los Angeles loves, whether they're left or right, is Kenneth Mejia. He's the city controller and his only job is to audit the city budget. That's it. He's just everyone's favorite accountant. He also has a corgi and his billboards look like this:

Congress is still debating reauthorizing Section 702 of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act, a law the government has repeatedly abused to spy on Americans without a warrant. If passed without meaningful reforms, all of our rights are in danger. Congress must vote NO.

Our media is controlled by just a handful of billionaires and their corporations. And Trump is making things even worse. Here's how we stop it.

50 years ago, the Supreme Court made a consequential ruling on campaign finance reform that doesn't get enough attention today. But it opened the floodgates to big money spending in our elections — and the corporate takeover of American politics. Here's what you should know.
