Elon Musk’s net worth has now surpassed $600 billion, just weeks after Tesla approved his 10-year, $1 trillion pay package.
That could amount to $100 billion per year — more than 1.4 million elementary school teachers’ paychecks combined.
Still wondering if inequality is out of control?

Tomorrow is the Epstein file release day. Reports are the DOJ is still redacting documents as of tonight, so expectations for tomorrow remain low.

What’s happening at the Supreme Court this week is bigger than just one FTC commissioner. The majority seems ready to endorse the “unitary executive” theory, giving Trump the power to purge agency staffers and replace them with loyalists. It’s a frightening prospect we should be paying attention to.

Today, journalist Jimmy Lai should be home celebrating his birthday with family. Instead, this brave free speech and democracy advocate languishes in prison. The world demands Jimmy Lai be released and his sham charges dropped.

Neither Netflix nor the Paramount/Trump/Saudi Arabia group should own Warner Bros. Both deals are absurd - terrible for consumers and democracy.
This is a story about corruption - Trump using government power to screw consumers and gain control of the media. A red alert moment.

While several media reports have suggested that DOGE has all but fizzled out, it’s far from dead. DOGE affiliates are scattered across the federal government. Meanwhile, the DOGE ethos remains fully in force.
