Two former Wells Fargo executives were fined $8.5M by the Biden administration for covering up the bank's infamous fake account scandal.

Trump just slashed those fines to a paltry $150,000 after Wells Fargo gave $1M to his inauguration.

See how this works?

The GOP budget bill could gut the FTC by moving its antitrust authority to the DOJ, limiting the government's ability to bring unfair competition cases. 

It would also let Pam Bondi, an ex-Amazon lobbyist, call the shots on antitrust. 

Big Business must be thrilled.

This is exactly how Hitler talked. It's not even a comparison or analogy, as people claim.

It's a direct connection in ideology as well as a similar approach to governance and relationship to democracy.

This needs to be how we talk about it. They are the ideological descendants of Hitler.

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 📉

It’s been inspiring to see everyone come together for LA,,, but there’s one community I need to highlight.

Not enough is being done for the black families after the LA fires. Ive partnered up with GoFundMe and the BMAC to create ONE main GoFundMe campaign to immediately help those in need.

Remember, today especially, that MLK said America suffers not just from "the vitriolic words and actions of the bad people but for the appalling silence of the good people." Keep the faith. Keep up the fight.
