Five corporations control 90% of the US media market. Airlines merged from 12 major carriers in 1980 to 4 today. Four giants control 80% of meat processing. The evidence of corporate consolidation is everywhere. It means more power for them and less freedom for you.

CARTOON OF THE DAY

Mike Johnson is powerless to stop this:

Every time I get on X I am saddened by the level of hate and stupidity.

Fentanyl. Drug Overdoses, including Fentanyl, are not even in the top 20 causes of death in the USA. Cancer, Diabetes, Covid, Heart Disease all in the top 10, and all have had their research funding cut. They aren't murdering just Venezuelans. However they are killing us much slower.

Sadly relevant today.

🇺🇦President Zelenskyy: Russia started this war and Russia is the only country that can stop this war.

Reposting this everyday until Pete Hagueseth faces justice for his crimes against humanity.

Alina Habba’s parents emigrated to the US from Iraq citing persecution.

In case you’re in the mood for some good news . . .

If telling the troops not to follow illegal orders is “sedition,” what do we call colluding with the Kremlin to manipulate the U.S. President into advancing Russian interests over America’s?

Bolsonaro is what happens when six Supreme Court justices aren't co-conspirators.

Do you know who you won't find in the Epstein Files? Undocumented immigrants.

"The loan changes will hit next July when an open-ended federal loan program known as Grad PLUS will stop making new loans... Med students won't be able to borrow more than $50,000 a year..." Keep advantages to wealthy families, make it impossible for the poor to get ahead 😡 #Pinks

Wow. Keith Boykin really sums it up nicely! 💙 Truth. Facts. Reality check. ✔️

Epstein survivor Haley Robson refutes Mike Johnson: "The survivors that don't want to be public are Jane Does. They've been protected and their names have been redacted the whole time ... I don't care if my name is redacted is not."

Jamal Khashoggi. Say his name.

“Parents who, after consulting with a doctor and a psychologist, allow their 15-year-old child to transition commit child abuse. The child is too young to consent!” --Megyn R. Kelly “Grown men who have sex with your 15-year-old? Big whoop! It’s not like she’s 8. LOL!” --Also Megyn R. Kelly

To all the legal scholars, since the enabling statue did not change the Department of Defense to the Department of War is the bombings in the Caribbean even legal? Is anything they do legal?

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.

Every day there are multiple instances of blatant corruption. Our government policy is for sale to the highest bidder and every bad actor in the world knows it. www.nytimes.com/2025/11/13/w...

BREAKING: BERNIE SANDERS: “If this resolution passes tonight, we are on our way to throwing 15 million Americans off of Medicaid and the affordable care act.”

Not that he didn’t already know, but now Trump knows for sure he can roll the Dems every time and there’s no need to negotiate for anything

Casual reminder that the myth of “pulling yourself up by your bootstraps” is a cruel hoax designed to convince poor people from all walks of life that the injustices they face are a result of their own actions, rather than an oppressive system rigged against them.

Cull the Democratic Party. Systematically chip away all the weak, corporate centrists and corrupt, gutless elected officials who refuse to fight and instead suck at the teat of the oligarchy.

Bernie Sanders: "What this Senate is about to do is make a horrific situation even worse. So let's be clear what this vote is about. If this vote succeeds, over 20 million Americans are gonna see at least a doubling in their premiums in the ACA."

This is really good to see: Miki Sherrill just put out a statement sharply criticizing the Senate Dems' pending cave in the government shutdown, ripping it as "malpractice" and a betrayal of the people who are "counting on us to fight for them." Sherrill knows what drove her victory. Wake up, Dems.

Argentina President Javier Milei doing the "Trump dance" at Mar-a-Lago after getting an $40 billion bailout. Meanwhile, Trump won't renew subsides for American healthcare.

My family has been without half our income for 40 days. It has been.. very hard. We are willing to feel that pain so people can have health care next year, or to undo these illegal recissions. We are not willing to have been put through this for NOTHING.

Senators on the brink of retirement who lived full, wealthy lives and never feared the loss of their own healthcare voting for their constituents to die from their inability to afford the same is treasonous

If I was a Dem rep, I would not only be standing strong for healthcare, but I would be spending my days raising money for food for my constituents.

Take it up with your caucus, @markey.senate.gov. I'm so disillusioned tonight with the news that some of the @democrats.org are lined up to throw away ACA subsidies forever after 8 weeks of holding the line. I'll call my Senators, but come on, people, stand up for us!

No health care, no deal.

Never forget who sold us out: Hassan King Cortez-Masto Shaheen Kaine Fetterman Durbin Rosen

The average SNAP benefit per month is $177 a person. The average ACA benefit per month is up to $550 a person. People want us to hold the line for a reason. This is not a matter of appealing to a base. It’s about people’s lives. And working people want leaders whose word means something to them.

Don’t look away or scroll. A little boy is crying because his mother has been detained and deported by ICE. He doesn’t understand borders or politics—only loss. This is happening right now, in our country, on our watch. Look closer. Speak louder. Silence is complicity.

idk who needs to hear this but the President of the United States of America is APPEALING a judges order forcing him to fully fund SNAP. Yes — DJT is appealing a ruling telling him to NOT starve his own people. Let that simmer.
