The richest man on earth owns X. The second richest man on earth is about to be a major owner of TikTok. The third richest man owns Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp. The fourth richest man owns The Washington Post. See the problem here?

Vote with your dollars.

That was fast. This is also why you don’t surrender to autocrats - you fight them and beat them.

“Your critics will say it’s a crackdown on free speech.” Trump: *rants weirdly about people being on drugs*

There is no excuse for political violence in America. And no excuse for a U.S. president using a heinous killing as an occasion to treat his political opponents as accomplices to murder and threatening to use the full power of the government to attack them.

When Charlie Kirk, who put together lists of professors he didn't like so people could target and harass them, used the phrase "free speech", he meant it in the same way creationists talk about "teaching the controversy." For Kirk, it was just another way to bludgeon the left and promote propaganda.

Americans have short memories—keep reminding them. PLEASE SHARE!

There are violent extremists on the left but they are not in charge of the party. You can find them on social media, not in the halls of power. The violent extremists on the right are in congress, on courts, and sitting in the Oval Office.

Reminder: At the start of his legal career, RFK Jr. failed the bar, was forced out as a D.A., and got arrested for heroin. Without the Kennedy name, that story ends there.

Wages of unionized workers are 13% higher than their nonunion counterparts. But unions also set a higher pay standard that all workers enjoy. In high-union-density states, median household income is $12,000 higher than in low-union-density states. This is why unions are vital.

Look at this graph. The share of national income going to the richest 10 percent was lowest (and share to lower 90 percent highest) when union membership was at its highest. As unions have weakened, inequality has widened. This is why we must build back union power.

One of argument against renewable energy often repeated by Trump is that it is unreliable This is nonsense, of course The president is living in 1995 Since then, battery costs have dropped 98%, while energy density has more than quadrupled

A late night message from Gavin Newsom

BREAKING: Trump on Washington D.C: “The homeless have to move out IMMEDIATELY”. Better idea. Take the $200m that you want to spend on putting gold accents in a new pointless White House ballroom, and invest it in the community instead.

worst person in the world etc

Those fine Khristians keep showing you their true Konfederate Kolors

Trump is whining that the job numbers were “rigged” to help Biden then Revised downwards AFTER the election… but this revision happened BEFORE the election.

Weakest 3 months of job growth since 2020.

Virginia Giuffre’s brother: I think we were shocked by it—especially the use of the term “stolen.” Because she’s not an object. She’s a person. Someone who was recruited at Mar-a-Lago—his property… it just kind of makes us wonder… how much he knew

Let them eat cake.

Trump is spending $200 million of our tax dollars on a “golden ballroom” in the White House, but we “can’t afford” pediatric cancer research.

Why is it acceptable for the president to use taxpayer money to fly overseas and cut a ribbon at his own golf course? Don’t normalize this abuse of office. It’s blatant corruption.

lol

They just lie

We remember, Nancy.

A scientist warning about National Weather Service cuts in May: “Sooner or later, people are going to die as a direct result of this”

He’s a liar.

Imagine. If. Biden. Said. This.

Mr. President, you love playing the schoolyard bully but, at age 79, it’s time to cut it out. It’s one thing to steal one kid’s lunch money, but your bill STEALS LUNCH MONEY FROM MILLIONS OF KIDS. Now, that’s real ugly.

Not AI. This is a real tweet from a Republican congressman from Wisconsin. The cruelty is the point.

Mike Johnson just said if you are for reducing the deficit, this bill is for you. The bill adds 3-4 trillion dollars to the deficit. They just lie.

More than 16 million Americans are at risk of losing their health care because Republicans in Congress are rushing to pass a bill that would cut federal funding for Medicaid and weaken the Affordable Care Act.

We are living in precarious times.

The left better start figuring out how to weaponize today's decision rather than just (rightfully) criticizing it. - Go back into Judge Kaczmaryk's court to dissolve all of his nationwide orders. - Pass gun bans and insist any order applies only to plaintiffs.

Trump is closer to his goal of eliminating birthright citizenship. Those with migrant parents who vote Republican are voting for a party that wants to strip them of citizenship and deport them.

BREAKING: @gavinnewsom.bsky.social files a $787 million defamation lawsuit against Fox News. Watch the interview with @governor.ca.gov here:

If the Supreme Court thinks universal injunctions are unconstitutional, to wait until *now* to say that, in this of all cases, with this of all presidents, is a devastating indictment of both its impartiality and its prudence.
