Just saw the movie “Pressure.“ It is absolutely brilliant, one of the best of the year. It’s about Eisenhower and D-Day. Throughout the whole thing I kept thinking, “And we have Trump and Hegseth… G-d help us…”

Roughly 90% of ICE detainees are held for‑profit

I wrote about why the "send Americans exposed to Ebola to Kenya" is such a bad policy Is it cruel? Sure But is it also counterproductive? You bet

Chris Deluzio served under both Bush and Obama. Can you imagine either of them, in the middle of a war, burning nine minutes of a cabinet meeting to talk about reflecting pools?

This corrupt pedophile protector who is currently going through a divorce because he cheated on his wife is saying soon-to-be pastor James Talarico is a threat to Texas' 'values and way of life.'

No snark, I genuinely don’t get it. Trump is one of the least masculine, most juvenile public figures out there. He’s needy, whiny, defensive, terrified of strong women, and visibly intimidated by powerful men. How does his base spin this into the ultimate “strongman” image?

NEWS: Iran has completely rejected the Trump administration’s demand to transfer its enriched uranium stockpile out of the country, one of Washington’s central conditions in ongoing negotiations.

My concern is the internet will suffer irreparable damage as well…. People will not trust using the web anymore..

Trump used to rail against the military industrial complex. Now his family profits from it. Watch.

🚨This video is for people with over $50 million in a trust fund. 🚨 Nurses and firefighters can't avoid paying taxes, so neither should billionaires. Complicated dynasty trusts are just tax avoidance by another name–time to close this loophole, America.

Iran may be thinking about this.

Trump getting chumped. And the whole world's watching. And Americans are paying through the nose because of that fool's incompetency and vanity.

This is creeping privatization folks. Everything's gotta make profits for millionaires and billionaires.

Five months into a pilot program that uses AI to review certain Medicare procedure requests, Washington seniors face new hurdles and worsening health outcomes, according to health care providers and lawmakers.

These offshore tax loopholes are an insult to hardworking Americans being forced to cut back just to make ends meet. There’s no tax dodge for them.

While Americans struggle to afford groceries as a result of the administration’s tariffs and cuts to SNAP, his administration is actively helping rich corporations dodge $40 BILLION in taxes. 🧵

Wall Street Journal reports discussion in the White House about dropping the slush fund and surprise at the level of opposition from Rs, more than 12 of whom have urged Trump to drop the albatross. Doubt that would placate Judge Williams, who wants to investigate whether there was fraud on court.

"As platforms digitally colonize and commodify an ever-greater portion of our time, it becomes harder to find the cracks in capitalism where human culture can flourish and resistance can grow."

Campos: I'd say pretty much everyone in the room supported what I had to say. It's just that oftentimes they lack the courage, or there's too much on the line for them to say something about it.

A quick lesson on privatization in microcosm. I'm setting up a new weather station. I needed 2 more parts from the same source and ordered them on 5/22. Interestingly, one was shipped UPS, the other USPS. The USPS package is arriving today. The UPS one won't be here until Tuesday or Wednesday. 1/

It took four #BrokenTimes reporters to write an attack on Mamdani as the socialist who doesn't care about business that might as well come from the WSJ editorial board. Among Mamdani’s Priorities, Economic Development Seems Low on the List www.nytimes.com/2026/05/29/n...

When a President’s physicians start citing “AI cardiac age” metrics and explaining bilateral bruising from “frequent handshaking,” the line between medical documentation and political messaging disappears.

"Don't pretend like that's an escape plan. "

@neildegrassetyson.com: "The people who want to colonize Mars so that we're a two-planet species, that's a nice thought, but it's not realistic... Go there as a vacation, to enjoy, but don't pretend that's an escape plan. It's simply not realistic given the cost that that would engender."

So, in an effort to "punish" Democratic cities, Trump wants to tank our economy even further. Halting international flights into some of the busiest hubs in the country is not just idiotic, it would spell economic disaster for the ENTIRE country.

Washington state is home to one of the largest communities of Laos refugees in the country. Under the Trump administration, many are facing new scrutiny from Immigration and Customs Enforcement.

A federal judge just ordered Trump's name removed from the Kennedy Center and blocked his planned two-year shutdown of the institution. The bigger question: Is this a one-off defeat, or the beginning of a contagion marking a broader judicial pushback against Trump's reshaping of DC in his image?

What a birthday gift for JFK

"The scales of justice and also the political scales. Republican members of Congress are hearing an uproar from their constituents about this, which persuaded many to leave town without acting on Trump’s second big reconciliation bill."

I asked earlier this week if Trump has finally overplayed his hand. I believe the $1.8 billion fund will be seen as the straw that broke Trump’s legal and political back. Some thoughts... https://robertreich.substack.com/p/he-has-overplayed-his-hand

Meta paid its lowest effective federal tax rate in company history last year. Earlier this month, Meta began laying off 10% of its workforce. More than 8,000 people will lose jobs as it ramps up AI investment. Zuckerberg is now worth $215 billion. Second Gilded Age.

BREAKING: A federal judge in Miami just made a striking turnabout — essentially reopening Trump's $10 billion case against the IRS, saying that she wanted to investigate "grievous allegations" that the hasty deal to resolve it was "premised on deception."

An ICE agent accused by Minnesota prosecutors of shooting a Venezuelan immigrant and lying about it has been arrested in Texas. Christian Castro was taken into custody on charges of assault in the second degree and falsely reporting a crime in connection with the Jan. shooting of Julio Sosa-Celis.
