Tyson is one of just a few companies that controls the entire meat market. Just last month, it paid $85M to settle charges it illegally conspired with other meatpackers to raise pork prices. Corporate monopolies are great for executives and a raw deal for everyone else.

Emmanuel, a 15-year-old with intellectual disabilities, wandered away from his mom’s fruit stand in October. She reported him missing to Houston police. But instead of reuniting them, the city turned him over to ICE. “They’re failing all of us,” his mom said. thebarbedwire.com/2025/11/24/d...

“When you are dying, at least in my limited experience, you start remembering everything.” Tatiana Schlossberg, the daughter of Caroline Kennedy, writes about receiving a terminal diagnosis. https://newyorkermag.visitlink.me/4SkkDI

#BREAKING: Just hours after Texas asked #SCOTUS to pause Tuesday’s ruling that had blocked its new House congressional district maps, Justice Alito has issued a temporary “administrative” stay pausing that ruling (and putting the new maps back into place) while the full Court considers next steps:

The genocide is not over.

How exactly will the Big Beautiful Bill cut taxes for America's richest 1%? CAP's @chusak.bsky.social breaks it down: https://www.americanprogress.org/article/7-ways-the-big-beautiful-bill-cuts-taxes-for-the-rich/

I want people to displace the imaginary depictions of *revolutions* that they have come to create in their heads with the actual small revolutionary acts that happen daily. We might get closer to revolution that way.

A week before he voted to cut Medicaid, Republican Congressman Rob Bresnahan dumped up to $130,000 worth of stock in four companies that manage nearly half of all Medicaid enrollees in the country. www.nbcnews.com/politics/con...

Today would be a great day to ban members of Congress and their families from trading stocks, don't you think?

Bro, we just want the planes to take off and land, on the agreed-upon schedule, can you focus on that?

"“Clearly, Trump has learned something from his good friend MBS: If you don’t like what your political opponents say, execute them,” said Sen. Bernie Sanders. “Unfortunately for Mr. Trump, that’s not what we do in America.” www.commondreams.org/news/trump-s...

THIS IS INCREDIBLY INSPIRING! Please watch and share as Starbucks baristas demonstrate outside the company's biggest distribution hub. They're on DAY 7 of their strike. Baristas and their allies are protesting Starbucks’ serious and unresolved unfair labor practices. REPOST IF YOU SUPPORT THEM

Paid an astronomical amount of $$$ to escort the saudis - other duties as assigned: www.bbc.com/news/article...

ICE should be cracking down on the cartels, not our communities. ICE should be deporting gang members, not small business owners. ICE should be hunting down human traffickers, not moms and babies.

I want to take a moment to thank the entire Elias Law Group team who worked on the Texas redistricting case as well as our fearless clients. The thirteen Black and Latino voters we represented stood up to challenge Texas's unprecedented mid-decade redistricting. We all ow them a debt of gratitude.

1. Raise tariff 2. Collect bribes 3. Reduce tariff

And then think of what a cornered psychopathic human being with the morals and instincts of a rat and control of over five thousand nuclear warheads would do.

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.

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.

hello from outside the ice detention center in broadview, illinois. there’s a decent crowd of protesters already here and more folks trickling in. leaders across faith traditions have organized this morning’s demonstration to demand ice to stop kidnapping community members.

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.

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

RT @jeremykonyndyk.bsky.social : “Please, please, please take 20 minute to watch this incredibly powerful film about the fatal recklessness of Elon Musk and Marco Rubio’s aid cuts. Children are dying from these cuts. This is one of the many, many stories - a South Sudanese refugee child in Uganda.”

A note about this quote attributed to an anonymous HHS official. I have not asked HHS for comment on Jenna's leave status, but I'd be willing to bet good money this came from their comms office. They have a habit of telling reporters — without any mutual agreement — things on background

No firm has closer ties to Noem's political operation than the Strategy Group. It played a central role in her 2022 South Dakota gubernatorial campaign. Corey Lewandowski, her top adviser at DHS and her adulterous paramour, has worked extensively with the firm. It's one hand washing the other...

About half of what it was going to cost to fully fund SNAP in November during the shutdown.

you could fact check this — there aren’t 30 million illegal immigrants and there is no evidence that the presence of an immigrant in say houston has any impact on housing in madison, wisconsin — or you could note straightforwardly that this is just nazi rhetoric

The Zionist campaign of genocide & ethnic cleansing continues ...

An interesting tidbit in the joint status report filed in the Broadview ICE facility case today: ICE says video from inside the facility "between October 19, 2025, and October 31, 2025, has been irretrievably destroyed" and can't be produced in discovery. www.courtlistener.com/docket/71832...

Just throwing this out there for reasons apnews.com/article/2022...

Priorities.

Helpful to keep in mind that lying sack of shit Karoline Leavitt ran for Congress in 2022, and lost. After a lawsuit against her campaign, she was forced to admit that she hid about $326,000 in undisclosed debt. Roughly 200k came from illegal contributions. She's dirty AF, just like her boss.

1/ The challenges in public health are urgent and constant, so it can be far too easy to miss progress when it happens. But one of the things that's been keeping me sane this year has been to pause and acknowledge that progress. So let's showcase some real signs of what public health can accomplish👇

Yesterday, when Bovino announced ICE would be returning to Little Village today, some of us donated and fundraised to buy out street vendors in the neighborhood. This morning, volunteers hit the streets at 6:30 am, looking for vendors to buy out. Tamales make an excellent breakfast.

NEW: The US has deported a longtime Oregon firefighter who was arrested by Border Patrol while deployed at a major wildfire in Washington state. José Bertin Cruz-Estrada, separated from his family, is speaking out from Mexico for the first time: “I feel betrayed ... What am I going to do now?"

Good. Per your prior post, he would be committing 'economic genocide' against a generation. Sharing the math for others: bsky.app/profile/mage...

They’ve laid off so many people that the government is now getting its economic data from DoorDash.

Kind of wild that while food assistance was withheld from millions of families, one Trump-supporting billionaire (Ellison) saw his net worth grow more this year than the entire SNAP budget. And the YTD gains of the other four richest men would’ve fully covered salaries for all 2M federal employees.

In the century leading up to 1975, nearly 6000 freighters went down in the Great Lakes. The Edmund Fitzgerald was the last. The last. In 50 years, not a single commercial freighter has been lost in the Great Lakes. Why? It's NOAA. Of course it's NOAA.

Since 2020, I have been fighting for mail-in voting and the GOP has been fighting against it. A critical court case is now going before the U.S. Supreme Court. I can assure you that I will be there fighting hard to ensure every lawful ballot counts.

Two years ago, I wrote this about how the COP climate summits are designed to fail, and how they could be designed to succeed. Sadly, nothing has changed. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

If you've ever needed a reason to rally behind the BBC then this is it.

SUPERB and angrily unvarnished response, by former BBC chairman, Lord Patten. "I don't think that we should allow ourselves to be bullied into thinking that the BBC is only any good, if it reflects the prejudice of the last person who shouted at it." ~AA

Today the Supreme Court granted review in an important case for the outcome of the 2026 elections. At stake is the fate of tens or even hundreds of thousands of mail-in ballots. No one is covering this as completely as Democracy Docket. Please support its work by subscribing today. hubs.ly/Q03M8rql0

I know the idea that ICE and BP will be prosecuted en mass is comforting but it absolutely isn’t going to happen. If you actually care about this issue you should be more serious about it.

A leader would not have lost eight colleagues tonight. This happened because you let it happen or because you’ve totally lost control of the caucus in one of the most important moments since you’ve been Democratic leader. Either way, it’s on you. You need to step down. We need someone who can lead.

Girl Scouts in a Chicago Suburb hosted a food drive. But the girls encountered masked U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents with weapons. "ICE turned it into a scary and what felt like an unsafe environment for us to be out with these kids" chicago.suntimes.com/immigration/...
