Please focus attention that one of the biggest and most dangerous parts of the bill survived Parliamentarian review. Section 43201(c) seals off any states or political agencies from setting any regulations on AI. This is a gift to Thiel and Palantir who currently hold our data in their claws.

Follow the money and see where it goes. Elon Musk was just awarded a $5.9 billion taxpayer-funded SpaceX contract by Trump—the largest in a new package of space deals. Trump ensured Musk got the money, fully aware he’s facing “steep personal cost.”

Late last night, the Administration cancelled collective bargaining rights for 1M federal workers in an illegal attack on working people, just weeks after cancelling the TSA contract.

This is an attack on all union contracts & all workers who want a union contract.

I joined Ali Velshi last night on MSNBC’s The Eleventh Hour to discuss the Chief Justice’s rebuke of the President. I explained that America is in a constitutional crisis when, rather than faithfully executing the laws, the President of the United States is defying the laws.

This is your regular reminder that if unions didn't work, giant corporations wouldn’t spend millions and millions of dollars trying to stop workers from making them.

Unions give workers power, and billionaire CEOs don't like that.
