Didn’t we acknowledge that this was a poor policy decades ago and break up and make laws to prevent monopolies…. Funny how when they control the narrative things move back into their favor…
America has 925 billionaires as of this year. Collectively they have a record $6.9 trillion in wealth.

The bottom 50% of Americans control $4.2 trillion in wealth.

When 925 people control more wealth than half a country’s population, we have a very serious problem.

Unbelievable!
I don’t wanna hear a single word about conservatives caring about the safety of women. Full stop. Absolute treacherous liars

Call to action…
This’s a long one.

TLDR: What needs to be done requires us to get more comfortable w/contradictions & complexity, but doing the right thing, loving your neighbor through your actions, taking collective action to build & sustain our power, & reveal & make evil uncomfortable, is pretty damn simple.

Wanted to send a note about Harvard capitulation—as an employee etc I emailed the H pres to support him for standing strong the first time and got a personal response. It’s worth emailing him and I believe it makes a real impact. He is paying attention.

MAYOR BASS: “They need to leave right now. This is UNACCEPTABLE.”

The mayor showed up as Trump’s Gestapo/ICE marched through MacArthur Park like an invading army. Ridiculous.

They left. (h/t FOX LA)

It's incredible that neither the president nor VP was here. The politicization of all facets of American life is coming from the White House. No other American president would have failed to pay their respects. www.washingtonpost.com/nation/2025/...

Here's your periodic reminder that political centrism is nonsense. There is no middle ground between democracy and oligarchy.

In the words of Nelson Mandela: it always seems impossible until it’s done.

My friends, it is done. And you are the ones who did it.

I am honored to be your Democratic nominee for the Mayor of New York City.

I’ve been in politics for over a half-century. I’ve watched as corporations and the super-rich flooded D.C. with campaign cash and ransacked our system.

It won't be easy, but here’s how we break the corporate oligarchy and return power to the people. https://youtu.be/sP0pRIBRcDk?si=o8uynfvuoVhcX7p8

When people keep saying you are telling lies, at some point we need to start doubting you!!
This is brutal. India says Trump is lying about a trade deal and says he also lied about brokering a peace deal between India and Pakistan. We are a joke around the world. bsky.app/profile/meid...
Holy shit. India’s Foreign Secretary just shut down Trump’s claim he brokered peace between India and Pakistan. Modi told him: “There was never any discussion… about a trade deal or U.S. mediation… India has neither accepted mediation, nor does it do so—and never will.”

Trump announced his first presidential campaign 10 years ago today.

If we really want to prevent future Trumps from coming to power, we will need to address the root causes of his rise. https://youtu.be/zTQoc5Jrciw?si=YUwHCh8OvNAKdBhA

This is an important reminder: even the LAPD acknowledged yesterday that everything was peaceful.

Then Trump brought the chaos.

He is responsible.

The President is lying! The “agents” are not trained law enforcement officers. They are disappearing people!
Hello. I live in Los Angeles. The president is lying.
