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.

The Social Security Expansion Act, intro'd by @sanders.senate.gov today, would:

- Make Social Security solvent for the next 75 years.

- Lift millions of seniors out of poverty

- Expand benefits for seniors and people with disabilities by $2400 a year

DOGE recommends cuts to the FAA.

Hundreds of workers get fired, including those tasked with producing air traffic navigation maps.

Now Starlink is reportedly in line to take over a $2 billion contract to upgrade the nation's air traffic control systems.

See how this works?

NOAA is an absolute mess, and it’ll be worse tomorrow. Please help us. There have already been over 1,000 terminations. It’s not just layoffs—Elon Musk and his staffers are trying to completely dismantle us. Today, there were tons of firings, and more are coming tomorrow.

Congrats, everyone—the Elon boycott is working! Reports indicate that Tesla inventory is swelling, especially with Cybertrucks piling up outside their factory. Keep the boycott going, and don’t forget—today is the Economic Blackout!

A grassroots movement is calling on all Americans to abstain from shopping with major retailers tomorrow, February 28, as part of an “economic blackout.”

I encourage you to join. https://robertreich.substack.com/p/boycott

The GOP passed a budget resolution last night that will gut Medicaid, SNAP, and other vital programs — as 60% of Americans live paycheck to paycheck.

Why? To finance tax cuts for the top 1%.

We have socialism in this country for the rich, harsh capitalism for everyone else.

Since Trump has claimed Elon doesn’t run DOGE, we wanted to make sure you know who is running our government. This list has been updated with 15 names.

DOGE recommended firing workers at:

-FDA, which oversees Neuralink

-FAA, which oversees SpaceX

-USAID, which probed Starlink

-CFPB, which oversees Tesla's financing arm and a potential payment platform on X.

"Conflict of interest" is a severe understatement.

😡

Tesla earned $2.3 billion in the United States in 2024.

You'd think it paid a lot in taxes, right?

Well it paid precisely $0 in federal income taxes last year.

You want waste and fraud? Look at what some big corporations and the rich are getting away with.

RFK Jr. is a dangerous conspiracy theorist and science denier who would be an unmitigated disaster for our communities and public health.

The Senate must reject him and ALL of Trump's nominees. ❌ #NoTrumpNominees

Yes, this administration is dangerous and cruel, but they are also shockingly dim and incompetent.

Opportunities are everywhere.

Make everything as hard as possible. Resist every demand. Refuse entry without a warrant. Don’t take the buyout. Their problem solving skills are 📉

The bishop who pleaded at the inaugural prayer service for President Trump to “have mercy” defends her sermon.

The Trump administration warned federal employees of “adverse consequences” for not reporting colleagues resisting orders to eliminate diversity, equity, and inclusion programs, giving a 10-day deadline to report via a special email account.

🚨 BIG NEWS: Bloomberg Philanthropies and others are covering the United States' climate obligations to the UN after Trump's Paris withdrawal.

Now, more than ever, we need states, cities, organizations, and individuals to step up for our planet.

Thank you, @michaelrbloomberg.bsky.social 👏
