A society that protects and promotes the greedy and the corrupt – despite dire harm to people and the planet  – is a sick society. No wonder so many of us feel ill.

BREAKING: CODEPINK’s Olivia just disrupted Energy Secretary Chris Wright at an AI expo promoting war technology. Inside, company after company was bragging about AI for warfare, surveillance, and destruction while our communities are neglected. No more wars for oil. No more AI for war.

💊 Americans are dying in waiting rooms — forced to skip life-saving care — while we pour billions into endless wars. This is the brutal reality. It’s time to choose: Our people or their bombs. Fund healthcare. Save American lives. 👉 Please share if you agree. #HealthcareNotWarfare

My resolution proposing a constitutional amendment to overturn the Supreme Court’s Citizens United decision now has 79 co-sponsors. You can view the full list at: www.congress.gov/bill/119th-c.... I’ll keep fighting to get it across the finish line!

While the world’s eyes are on fashion’s biggest night, we’re turning ours to the garment, retail, and warehouse workers who keep the industry running. From true love found on the picket line to a free tailoring school out of a Brooklyn basement — meet the New Yorkers who make it all possible.

The 2026 US-Iran conflict has escalated tensions in the Gulf, disrupted oil routes, and driven global price volatility, with rising fuel costs linked to Strait of Hormuz disruptions and ongoing military operations amid an uncertain ceasefire.

CEO pay rose 20 times faster than worker pay in 2025, per Oxfam. Overall, global worker pay declined 12% between 2019 and 2025 — while CEO pay rose 54% during the same time. Trickle-down economics was always a sham. www.theguardian.com/business/202...

"We can have democracy in this country, or we can have great wealth concentrated in the hands of a few, but we can't have both." –Justice Louis Brandeis Words spoken many years ago that are just as relevant today. We must continue the fight to get big money out of politics.

Open fascism.

As a Black woman in America, I’m disgusted with SCOTUS’s ruling yesterday weakening the Voting Rights Act! So awful! My ancestors fought and died for myself and many others to have voting rights

🚨BREAKING: A new lawsuit is challenging Louisiana’s decision to suspend congressional primaries already underway — arguing the state is illegally nullifying votes and plunging an active election into chaos following the Supreme Court’s gutting of the VRA. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

"Why would the Trump administration try to make it harder for families to care for their disabled children? Because they are disgusted by their existence. They want to go back to a world in which such people are sent away."

“Like cigarettes, enormous vehicles can kill those who never used the product…40 years ago, the outrage of secondhand smoke was an eye-opener for many Americans. A similar narrative could help people recognize the havoc that 4-wheeled behemoths now wreak on our streets.”— @davidzipper.bsky.social

“May Day, often referred to as International Workers’ Day, has a long legacy in the labor movement. In the late 1800’s — an era of extreme wealth concentration much like our own — American workers organized a general strike on May 1st demanding an eight-hour workday.”

The #technofascist AI data surveillance company, Palantir, whose leaders OPENLY aim to end democracies (theplotagainstamerica.com) just inked a $300 mil deal with USDA to “safeguard” U.S. food. Modern societies, especially the U.S., are wayyyy past “rational” thinking. @humanitymustwin.bsky.social

Justice Elena Kagan Isn't Mincing Words, About The Voting Rights Act........

OpenAI’s circular deals with other Big Tech giants, worth hundreds of billions of dollars, are helping inflate the stock market. But the company has recently missed its own targets for revenue and new users. If the AI bubble bursts, OpenAI won’t be stuck holding the bag — you will. Watch.

This is one of the problems with the stock market's enthusiastic embrace of AI. To be successful, the AI companies need lots of these data centers built and communities across America are saying "NO".

(Bloomberg) - Compass Datacenters is pulling out of a yearslong effort to build a key part of 2,100-acre data center corridor in Northern Virginia after the development faced intense pushback from local residents. @bloomberg.com www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

We are getting poorer and poorer. On a completely overheating planet. Because >90% of our "economy" only exists to maintain the silly money games of capitalism. Not to serve an economic nor social purpose. Be rational. Protect your children.

Surging gas prices & fascist petrostates + AI surveillance tech in cars = so many reasons to switch to ebike trips wherever & whenever possible. Ebikes: - are far better for your physical & mental health & the environment - build community - fight fascism

So, cars are now going to constantly monitor you and lock the transmission if it thinks you're not fit to drive. www.yahoo.com/news/article...

When a King and direct descendent of King George III has to remind the American government about the utmost importance of checks and balances, you know we're in deep trouble.

"Chevron, Shell, BP, ConocoPhillips, Exxon and TotalEnergies will make $2,967 a second in profits in 2026. It marks an increase of nearly $37 million a day compared to their 2025 profits." Never forget who is benefiting from Trump's deadly, reckless war.

In her latest blog post, UCS’s president and CEO addresses this latest interference with independent science.

What exactly is El Niño, and what makes this year’s event “super”? What happens when El Niño interacts with fossil fuel–driven climate change? UCS’s @marc-alessi.bsky.social breaks it all down in his new blog:

This whole thing is complete bullshit At this point, nobody in the administration can be trusted I’d say there’s about an 80% chance this whole thing was staged to try to prop up his failing presidency

Why are there not 100 million other Americans there with Ben Cohen?

The expenses were “enough to fund Medicaid for 500,000 people for an entire year.”

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.

Amazon, Meta, and Microsoft are all planning huge layoffs. Amazon got $17.5B in federal tax breaks last year. Jeff Bezos is worth $271B. Meta saved $13.7B in taxes. Mark Zuckerberg is worth $231B. Microsoft saved $12.5B last year. Its CEO is worth $1.3B. This is what a rigged economy looks like.

Bernie Sanders and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez have announced the Artificial Intelligence (AI) Data Center Moratorium Act, legislation that would enact a reasonable pause to the development of AI to ensure the safety of humanity. Learn more & support this bill in Congress here: bit.ly/4twnWMU

At our city-owned grocery stores, staples like eggs and bread will actually be affordable. And we're going to do it the right way, without cutting workers' pay or dignity. Because in the wealthiest city in this country, buying groceries shouldn't be an unsolvable equation.

“The Elbows Up for Climate campaign launched today with an open letter signed by more than 100 mayors and councillors from coast to coast to coast…” I applaud this, BUT EVERY ONE OF THOSE MAYORS AND COUNCILLORS better be fighting for CLIMATE ACTION in the land-use & transportation in THEIR cities.

A New Jersey data center will reportedly receive $77 million in tax breaks — while only creating one permanent job. One job, in exchange for higher utility bills, noise pollution, and potential groundwater pollution. Is it any wonder communities are organizing to stop data centers?

The Southern Poverty Law Center, which is best known for its tracking of hate groups, said that the Justice Department has launched a criminal investigation into the nonprofit regarding their use of informants.

I've written repeatedly about the insanity of lying to ourselves that LNG is clean fuel. "If all the planned terminals are built, the LNG produced in the US would generate the same amount of greenhouse gases each year as every EU country combined" Any questions?

#Techlordism #PurgePalantir "As a patriotic company, Palantir is immensely proud that no country in history has, in the name of progress & freedom, committed as many war crimes as the United States.” #Technofascists, humanity’s worst, are seizing power, but most people aren’t paying attention.

Better to have a revolution than live in that hellscape. People are not organising and acting fast enough.

We carry a responsibility to prove that government is worthy of the people it serves. A week ago, we marked our first 100 days. We will work every day to honor the promises we made to New Yorkers — and to fulfill the mission of the movement that brought us here.
