Want health, education, safety, & happiness for everyone. 💙Yes, I’ve been called a bleeding heart liberal and happy to be! I love ‘80s alternative music 🎶 I admire the teachings of Jesus but am suspicious of organised religion. (NO DMs UNLESS I KNOW YOU.)

I wanted to find media that gives just the facts, no opinions, no hyperbole, no propaganda. Just facts. So I found 2 media bias charts, one created by a liberal, another by a conservative. Compared the ones in the center of both charts. Picked the top 2. That’s where I get my news and information.

I know some don’t like reading anything but the headlines but these stories are more comprehensive than what the headlines tell us. There are innocent and decent people in all countries. However, the greedy and corrupt people in charge are the ones who are the problem. 👿

The vicious cycle of monopolization:

1) Corporations argue that their growth is just part of the free market.
2) Use their monopoly power to gouge consumers.
3) Take a portion of their profits to make political donations.
4) Lobby against antitrust enforcement.
5) Repeat.

Today, after months of requests, I toured the Broadview ICE Processing Facility. I want to share what I saw.

The facility has no food vendor, no medical care, and detainees have to use toilets in the middle of shared cells. These are in no way suitable conditions to be holding anyone — period.

Tyson is closing a Nebraska plant that employs 3,200 workers in order to “right-size” its business.

The meatpacking giant paid its CEO $22.7M last year, 525x its median employee's pay.

It also spent $196M in stock buybacks to reward shareholders.

Textbook corporate greed.

The EPA will approve two new pesticides containing “forever chemicals” and relax a reporting rule for companies who make products with forever chemicals.

The moves come after a $60 million lobbying blitz from the forever chemical industry.

Where is the MAHA outcry?

Notice the top post in this 🧵 was from Cory Booker!

Only Democratic lawmakers are speaking out against #ICELawlessness.

But that shouldn't stop you from calling both Republican & Democratic lawmakers alike!

Call often. We're in a national emergency. That's not hyperbole.

Are all politicians the same?

Not one Republican lawmaker is standing up for the Constitution, for due process & for human rights.

It's only Democratic lawmakers standing up for democracy, for rule of law & against #ICELawlessness, injustice & corruption.

Let your kids know there is a difference!

No, I’m not “just shopping somewhere else.” I’m taking back my power. My money goes where my values live, and that sure as hell isn’t Target, Amazon, or Home Depot this week.

Tyson is one of just a few companies that controls the entire meat market.

Just last month, it paid $85M to settle charges it illegally conspired with other meatpackers to raise pork prices.

Corporate monopolies are great for executives and a raw deal for everyone else.
Tyson CEO Donnie King made $22.7 million last year.

The week before Thanksgiving, he told 3,200 workers in Lexington, Nebraska that they're losing their jobs.
