“Even business leaders once portrayed as liberal visionaries were swept up in the rising tide of American fascism, becoming some of its most enthusiastic public admirers. Their conversions served as powerful and useful propaganda tools for the regime.”

Next year, Americans will see the biggest jump in health insurance costs in 15 years. Meanwhile, the seven largest health insurance companies made a combined $71B in profits in 2024. It’s far past time for Medicare for All. Here’s what you need to know.

I don't know why we still call them ICE and treat them as a legitimate organization. They are an armed Militia and should be designated as a terrorist group. No other legal force in America wears masks and strips people of due process. They are a terrorist organization

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.

Solidarity with Starbucks workers! Starbucks makes BILLIONS every year. The very least the company owes its workers is good faith negotiations for a fair contract and to END their illegal union-busting. Everyone should be able to organize at work!

open.substack.com/pub/kenklipp... Watch out!

Reminder that Starbucks’ CEO made 6,666x more than the company's median employee in 2024. This was the widest CEO-to-Worker pay gap in the entire S&P 500. And we're supposed to believe Starbucks can't afford to bargain a fair contract with its unionized workers?

Beto Orourk issuing a warning about what is happening in our country…

This video from Portland is a metaphor for what is going on in America. ICE trying so hard to get Americans to cross a line and if they don't, dragging them across the line and violently attacking.

Mike Johnson refuses to swear in Representative-elect Adelita Grijalva - because her vote could force the House to release the Epstein Files. The GOP is doing everything they can to keep Trump's Epstein cover-up going.

open.substack.com/pub/betoorou... Beto O’Rourke in Germany After all, as one conservative member of the Bundestag put it to me, "America liberated our country from fascism. How could we ever believe that you would submit to it yourself?"

There’s nothing more American than saying, NO KINGS‼️ REPUBLICANS ABOUT JANUARY 6: “A gathering of tourists.” REPUBLICANS ABOUT THE NO KINGS PROTEST: “A hate rally.” They praise the mob and condemn the movement. You see what they’re doing, right?

Authoritarians fear only one thing: DEFIANCE‼️ (Downtown Portland)

open.substack.com/pub/defiance... On the horrific leaked chat messages of the Young Republicans, the future leaders of the Republican party. Seems they learned well from their elders.

Maybe Mike meant "stood on" Capitol Police?

Federal agents aren’t trying to keep the peace. They want violence to escalate so that Trump can declare martial law. They shot a reverend in the head with pepper balls while he was praying in front of an ICE facility. If that doesn’t tell you where we are as a country, nothing will.
