Donald Trump is killing our judicial system, killing our constitution. Killing the laws based on that Constitution.
I think I see the problem, he took a oath to execute the laws.
And he's killing them off one by one.

Five corporations control 90% of the US media market.
Airlines merged from 12 major carriers in 1980 to 4 today.
Four giants control 80% of meat processing.
The evidence of corporate consolidation is everywhere.
It means more power for them and less freedom for you.

Netflix's $83 billion takeover of Warner Bros Discovery would mean more corporate consolidation.
Netflix, by far the #1 streamer, would take over HBO Max, the #3 streaming service.
This giant merger could violate antitrust law and hurt consumers.

New in PN: A war criminal without a war
"We’re watching the flimsy justifications fall apart in real time. They can try to shift the blame. They can try to say that people clinging to wreckage for dear life are somehow an active threat. But in the end, it’s just murder."

A 27 year old man in end stage kidney failure was told if he wanted his dialysis he has to sign self deportation papers.
“If you want to leave, sign. If not, you're going to die here."
Withholding of life saving medical treatment should be considered torture.

I think what really pisses me off about this - other than the obvious human suffering that is built into this system - is that Albo knows that the world is on a fascist knife's edge, but he's pulling shit like this, and the Tassal deal, and approving new gas deals.
