People must grasp the idea of “media capture.”
It’s when authoritarian regimes and/or their powerful allies take control of media to stifle independent voices holding the government to account.
It’s one way Hungary’s Viktor Orbán keeps power.
In the U.S., it’s what the Ellisons have done with CBS.

One day something will happen — a wedding, a graduation, a job promotion, Jake Paul getting knocked out, Andrew Tate getting knocked out the next day — and you’ll want the right outfit to celebrate. Buy that special outfit now, so you’re ready when that next unexpected moment arrives.

Despite having an office of hundreds of attorneys, Ken Paxton is frequently opting for private lawyers — many to whom he has personal or political ties — to argue on behalf of Texas.
One attorney cost taxpayers more than $24,000 for a day’s work.

One of the most important things you can do right now is convince family and friends that Trump & Co. threaten the future of everyone they love. It’s not “the same old politics,“ which many people carefully ignore. They’ve got to get involved.

Expiring ACA tax credits will hit small businesses especially hard. Meanwhile, 74% of small business owners are worried that their business won’t survive due to Trump’s tariffs.

Kristi Noem is guilty of crimes against humanity and needs to face justice.
📌 She made the final call to defy a court order to halt deportation flights, sending people into the hellscape of CECOT, a place the UN has compared to a torture chamber.
Prosecute her and everyone involved.

Mike Johnson refused to swear in Adelita Grijalva for months because she was the 218th signature to force a vote on the Epstein files, but sure, Republicans always wanted to release them as they now claim today for the first time.

Starbucks' CEO is paid $95.8 MILLION.
The median worker at Starbucks makes $14,674 a year.
Instead of recognizing its worker union, Starbucks writes off its union-busting expenses on its taxes.
That's why Starbucks workers are striking today.
I won't cross the picket line.

HB289 could mean lawyers, not doctors, will be consulted if a pregnant patient needs health care, including in an emergency. This bill could jeopardize IVF, chemotherapy, and abortion access if the partner, abuser, or even rapist of a pregnant patient is able to sue.

NEW — I spoke to DoorDash about the White House claiming the company's report shows "inflation has been tamed" and whether that's an interpretation one should make. An economist also weighed in, pointing out dictatorships use data obfuscation as a tool, and right now they're "grasping at straws."
WH claims 'inflation tamed,' per DoorDash stats. Company says that's not in its report.
It comes the same week we learned the WH would likely not release key economic reports for October.
