Public resources are becoming privatized and commodified by corporate oligarchs. pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/...

When and if sane and honest people ever again control the U.S. government, one of the first things they should do is enact a tax on large accumulations of wealth. https://robertreich.substack.com/p/if-the-market-were-working-well-we

Read this. The goal of the Conservative Movement is the privatization of the public good. This is a good example. www.counterpunch.org/2025/12/04/t...

Al Jazeera’s Gaza journalists and their families have been repeatedly targeted by the Israeli army since the start of the war on Gaza. Yet they continue to report, undeterred. Watch the film, The Price of Truth EP 2: aje.me/thepriceoftr...

Republicans just held a closed hearing with Special Counsel Jack Smith who still wants public hearings. If Trump were exonerated the GOP would agree. But they are still refusing. Are they trying to hide Trump's guilt? www.politico.com/news/2025/12...

Exclusive: The Trump administration is moving to dismantle the National Center for Atmospheric Research in Colorado, according to a senior White House official, taking aim at one of the world's leading climate research labs.

Right wing lunatics are destroying the country and the MAGA morons are loving it.

"It should not be torn down quietly. Its destruction should be a public event. It should be pledged on the campaign trail by Democratic candidates...." And restore the Rose Garden too! www.hamiltonnolan.com/p/if-he-buil...

This. This was the formative event of my generation & our entire politics in 🇺🇸. The structural break after which we were no longer a full democracy, when 5 Wizards In Robes decided they were a super-legislature & counting all the actual votes didn’t matter. The rest has been 25 years of commentary.

“Second Strike? All of the US Strikes in the Caribbean Are Illegal, Legal Experts Say” Lawmakers are focused on the double-tap strike, but they're missing the point. All the attacks on boats in the Caribbean violate both US and international law. zeteo.com/p/second-str...

If you're against Antifa, then you're PRO-fascist! Conservatives are pro-fascist!

Quid pro peace prize.

Most corrupt President in history!

Now hear this!

Larry Ellison, the world’s 2nd-richest man, predicts an AI surveillance state where “we’re constantly recording & reporting everything.” Are we headed toward a future where every call, text, email & search is tracked by billionaires? That's not democracy. It's authoritarianism.

The Supreme Court, Presidency, Senate and two party system are all quite anti-democratic institutions as presently constructed. Our institutions are not only incapable of preventing tyranny—they’re currently enabling it. When democracy returns, we need to reform our political system.

#GVerse via @calltoactivism.bsky.social 🚨ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME?? Mike Johnson waited 50 DAYS to swear in Adelita Grijalva but he swore in Matt Van Epps from Tennessee 48 HOURS after his special election. Mike Johnson is a piece of shit.

When I give money to the poor, they call me a saint. When I ask why the poor have no money, they call me a communist. Apologies to Bishop Helder Camara www.counterpunch.org/2025/12/04/t...

I dropped out of high school. Now, I’m living my dream as a fish scientist "In that moment, I realized I couldn’t keep doing these kinds of jobs for the rest of my life. I needed a career I was passionate about—and my biggest passion was fish." www.science.org/content/arti...

Gavin Newsom is spot-fucking-on. 🎯🎯🎯👇

At this year's U.N. climate talks in Brazil, negotiators avoided the total collapse of the framework established in the Paris Agreement 10 years earlier. But the result still disappointed many, including nations in the Global South bearing the brunt of the climate crisis.

Break up the monopolies!

The shittiest voters are also the dumbest in both the UK and the USA.

Wild animals are not populations to be managed for our benefit, but are individuals who value their own lives. These individuals have more of a claim to life and to freedom from harm than humans have claim to kill them. www.currentaffairs.org/news/wild-an...

How we beat back the corporate takeover of America: 1. Break up corporate monopolies 2. Continue building union power 3. End Citizens United and get big money out of politics Let’s keep working to unrig the system.

We'd have real free speech in this country if we had just as many ads on TV explaining how Medicare Advantage is a scam as there are ads hawking Medicare Advantage plans. Who has time to watch a 30 minute post about that? I do recommend that you do though! youtu.be/Ejoi9yfLVCc?...

Hey conservatives, you've been lied to, you just won't admit it.

A message for The Felon.

The Trump administration is illegitimate. It has repeatedly broken laws and violated the Constitution. It has actively worked to harm the people and has abused its power to to enrich the Trump family. It threatens political opponents, and critics and violates court orders. This is a rogue govt!

Breaking: An Epstein survivor just silenced press conference attendees when she delivered the following remarks: “Today we stand in a moment that will decide whether our government belongs to the American people, or to those who prey on them.”

The mass extinction at the end of the Permian was so bad that people call it the "Great Dying." But, it turns out marine life didn't take long to rebound. That story and more of the best from @science.org and science in this edition of #ScienceAdviser: www.science.org/content/arti... 🧪

Remember: The richest 1% evade over $160 billion in taxes every year. That amount would fund SNAP for a year with money to spare. Ask yourself who the real freeloaders are.

He lies like a rug

So true. Break up the monopolies!

Poverty is a policy decision. Concentrated wealth is a policy decision. Inequality is a policy decision. Remember this.

ahem

Voters want a Democratic Party that fights back against the forces that have rigged the system and made their lives more difficult. A party that comforts the afflicted and afflicts the comfortable —not a party that buckles and capitulates. When will party leadership learn this lesson?

The plan: Take money any way they can. 1) Delete departments 2) End all Social Programs 3) Use tariffs to build up the Treasury 4) Comingle $$ with crypto 5) Give tax breaks to the rich, again 6) Become trillionaires 7) Laugh all the way to the bank while we suffer. #P2025 #EvilMusk #Criminals

Layoffs are reaching their highest levels since the pandemic, but America's corporate elite have never been doing better. Is it any wonder why so many think the system is rigged?

This is what oligarchy looks like: If you're Elon Musk, the richest man alive, Tesla gives you a $1 trillion pay package & Trump gives you a huge tax break. If you're a poor kid on SNAP, Trump appeals a court decision that would have prevented you from going hungry. Obscene.

If at least 26 billionaires can waste at least $27 million trying to defeat Zohran Mamdani, then those same billionaires can afford to pay an extra 2% on their income over $1 million to make New York a better, thriving city for everyone — including themselves.

I love MAGA tears! 😆
