Himes: "This shows Steve Witkoff almost literally sitting side with the Russians on this ... it's unimaginable to consider the fact that you would propose a peace deal that the Ukrainians didn't even know about."

Neguse: "Many of these Republican members are heading to the exit for a reason. They realize they're going to lose the midterms next year. The president is deeply unpopular. His economic agenda is devastating working families across the country. They'll pay an electoral price in 11 months."

We’d like to end today with a quote from Eleanor Roosevelt:

We do not have to become heroes overnight. Just a step at a time, meeting each thing that comes up, seeing it as not as dreadful as it appears, discovering that we have the strength to stare it down.

Just keep going. Goodnight, heroes.

When Trump unveiled DOGE last year, I warned it would gut programs that help ordinary people, while turning a blind eye to tax loopholes and subsidies for billionaires.

Despite DOGE's demise, my predictions have sadly come to pass. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2hVMghqarHY

If you think Kash Patel was bad, wait until you see the man they want to replace him with. Patel was the chaos. Bailey is the control. And control is always more dangerous.👇

The Trump administration announced that starting Jan. 1, the cost of an annual national park pass for non-U.S. residents will jump from $80 to $250 more than triple the current price.

How to get rid of Citizens United?

We can do away with it without a new Supreme Court. Nor do we need a constitutional amendment.

There’s a far simpler way. Let me explain: https://robertreich.substack.com/p/how-to-get-rid-of-citizens-united

1/ You asked for our take on ultra-processed food, so let's dig in!

What is an “ultra-processed food”?

Industrial formulations w/ lots of added sugar, fat, salt, flavors, emulsifiers -- ingredients not found in your kitchen. Made for long shelf life, convenience, & to keep customers buying more.

Remember when Trump’s sons announced a made-in-the-USA smartphone and a new wireless service, Trump Mobile?

Three months later, the phone’s ship date keeps getting delayed with no explanation — although the company continues to collect $100 deposits.

The grift never ends.
The Trump Mobile phone is nowhere to be found after months of delay
Trump Mobile has posted conflicting photos of the phone and scrubbed mention of its “Made in the USA” promise.

You cannot have a functioning economy when so few people at the top hold so much of the nation’s wealth. It’s not sustainable.

Hollywood loves our trauma. Black actors are more likely to win awards when playing roles tied to slavery, servitude, or trauma.

Lupita Nyong’o opens up about what happened after her Oscar win. Hollywood kept offering her more parts as an enslaved woman, pushing the same stereotype again and again.

The stock market's gains are being overwhelmingly driven by seven Big Tech companies who have invested heavily in AI, which has made tech oligarchs even wealthier.

But when that AI bubble bursts, the rest of us will be stuck holding the bag.

Be warned.

WIRED: “ICE expands plans to outsource immigrant tracking to private surveillance firm… up to $280 MILLION…”

Bounty hunting (nonviolent) immigrants. Cruelty is big business — spending our money to harm our own economy.

An own goal. America’s Brexit.

MAGA Jews spent so much time conflating left wing criticism of Israel’s actions with antisemitism that they overlooked the significant danger that the MAGA coalition poses for Jews who live in America. What did they expect from a party that de-humanizes other minority groups?

This is how our government has been corrupted:

1) Donors give huge sums to elect politicians to office
2) Elected officials rewrite rules in the donors' favor
3) Donors make huge profit
4) Repeat

We must get big money out of politics.

It is the root of our dysfunction.

“Just vote blue in 2026” won’t save us from American fascism. Both parties have been drifting to the right for years. Democrats and Republicans have aligned themselves with corporatocracy and oligarchy, respectively.
