Mockler: I used to go to Trump rallies and I would debate with his supporters. There was this one woman… I asked her who her favorite podcaster was. She said Dan Bongino. I asked her if she would vote for Putin or Kamala if she could choose. She said I'd vote for Vladimir Putin…

Forty years ago, 90% of media outlets were spread across 50 companies.
Now, just 5 companies control 90% of the media market.
This consolidation hurts consumers and helps oligarchs. 🧵

Trump 1.0 left Biden the 9% inflation rate, and Biden had to work to get it down to 2.9% and handed it off to Trump 2.0, so he could and IS screw up our economy AGAIN.
It will get worse and will only be corrected with the removal of Trump in 2028.

Layoffs have hit over 1.1M so far this year — the most since the pandemic.
Yet corporate profits continue to hit record highs, with corporations increasingly spending those earnings on stock buybacks to enrich execs and shareholders.
This is what a rigged economy looks like.

Netflix's $83 billion takeover of Warner Bros Discovery would mean more corporate consolidation.
Netflix, by far the #1 streamer, would take over HBO Max, the #3 streaming service.
This giant merger could violate antitrust law and hurt consumers.
