If Jeff Bezos was actually a feminist instead of letting Katy Perry buy a ticket to space he'd use his vast financial resources to oppose the president who is stripping abortion rights and bodily autonomy from women across the country

Jimmy Kimmel left X with 11.9M followers. Now imagine top influencers officially coordinating a date & time to all leave at once. One last post: why they’re leaving + “I’m on BlueSky, follow me there.” Their fans follow, X stock tanks. Who’s bold enough to make it happen?

When oligarchs talk of “personal liberties and free markets” they mean their own liberties to become even richer and more powerful.

When oligarchs speak of “freedom,” what they actually seek is freedom from accountability.

Know the truth.

For 50 years, the median wage of hourly workers stagnated or declined while the stock market and CEO pay skyrocketed.

Is it any wonder so many feel abandoned by the system? People lose faith, and a demagogue fills the void.

This is why we must fix the system.

Trump's CFPB just dropped its lawsuits against:

-Capital One, for cheating depositors out of $2B+ in interest
-Rocket Homes, for providing kickbacks to agents and brokers
-Vanderbilt Mortgage, for trapping customers in risky loans 

It's open season for corporate crooks.
