Poland is NATO’s biggest defense spender, has the EU's largest army, and is spending billions of euros on jets, rockets, tanks, artillery and more.

Now the frontline state is getting its population ready for war. 👉 ow.ly/AmEg50VpvTs

AOC: Fox News and the right-wing would have you believe that these American values are something out of The Communist Manifesto. But let me tell you Fox News, I don’t believe in healthcare, labor, and human rights because I’m a Marxist.. I believe it because I was a waitress.

No matter where you fall on the TikTok ban, the President undoing by “executive order” a law passed by Congress and upheld unanimously by the Supreme Court is an unconstitutional abuse of power.

We must stop mega-donors from warping our democracy. A ban on annual donations over £5,000 would cut the influence of big donors on our politics and protect the interests of ordinary voters. Sign the petition secure.unlockdemocracy.org.uk/page/162623/...

I’m worried that the exodus from Meta and Twitter is what they want. To isolate us from each other.

Isolation is a big part of autocracy. It makes people easier to lie to and abuse.

I don’t have a global answer, but I am working on building a social media space for our podcast listeners.

This is a failure of democracy.

82% of the public want water back into public ownership, but we weren’t part of the decision.
