resistance through art

Our billionaire President put an airline lobbyist in charge of the Department of Transportation. So no, this is not a surprise.

The 100 lowest-paying US corporations spent $644B on stock buybacks from 2019 to 2024. Buybacks artificially boost share prices and inflate CEO pay. The typical worker at these companies earned $35k last year. Meanwhile, the average CEO was paid $17.2M See the problem?

Losers then, losers now.

Next they'll be rewriting textbooks to say Japanese American internment camps were delightful summer resorts.

Bless these brave women!

Mike Johnson makes clear that when Congress returns next week he's going to work tirelessly to cover up the Epstein files

THIS IS NOT NORMAL.

When a president decides to disregard the will of the American people, you’re right, that’s the mark of authoritarian rule. The White House has notified Congress that it plans to cancel $4.9 billion in foreign aid funding that lawmakers had already approved, doing so without their consent.

holy shit

Dems don’t win by getting cross-over Reaganites. They win by mobilizing the Democratic base in a Democratic Party that is still the majority party in the US…by quite a margin. open.substack.com/pub/davidrot...

MAJOR BREAKING: A massive report exposes that Trump purchased $100,000,000 in bonds tied to companies DIRECTLY impacted by his policies. That smells like insider trading and is IMPEACHABLE. Overall, Trump has made $3.4 BILLION in the last 8 months. #BlueCrew #ProudBlue #Resist #ImpeachTrumpNOW

The clearest picture of corporate greed in this country is CEO-to-worker pay ratios. At the 100 lowest-paying major US companies, CEO pay averaged $17.2M in 2024. Median worker pay at these companies was just $35,570. That’s a ratio of 632 to 1. How can anyone defend this?

Art of the deal.

The redacted Epstein files is just a blank page titled: “Trust Us, Everyone You Suspect Is In Here.”

I don't think you can really say that Dems walking out of Texas and going back was pointless when it seems to have given California the time to move the ball on their retaliatory measures.

What real leadership looks like. Thank you, President Barack Obama, for standing strong with California, defending our rights, and fighting for the people of this nation.

@gavinnewsom.bsky.social: "Let's go. This is it. We need to wake up. We cannot survive if he rigs not just Texas, but he goes to Indiana, goes to Missouri, goes to Ohio, goes to Florida. We have to have other governors of like mind, and there are many, to now do something, not just say something."

Yes, Yes and YES.

So deeply embarrassing for the United States. Trump legitimized Putin and his illegal war on the world stage and got absolutely nothing in return. Not even a single step toward peace. Everyone involved in this charade should be ashamed.
