Very interesting conversation with Bernie Sanders on AI's impact on the workforce and more revolutionary solutions to protect workers. worth a listen
I've been saying for awhile that if labor is being decimated by capital--then we have to get more capital in the hands of workers.

Trump’s Spending Abuses Are Out of Control. He Shouldn’t Have That Power in the First Place.
Trump is different. He's gone much further than previous presidents, which explains why the Government Accountability Office has found he violated the law 6 times in a few months.

Yeah it really backfired. We’re reeling. That’s why we were up all night trashing some of our closest former allies on social media, ordering investigations by DOJ of our enemies, delaying a flight to Palm Beach to rant and rave in the WH, while generally melting down. Libs in disarray.
