Musk, worth $829 billion, owns X.

Bezos, worth $234 billion, owns The Washington Post & Twitch.

Zuckerberg, worth $231 billion, owns Facebook, Instagram & WhatsApp.

And now Larry Ellison, worth $202 billion, is about to control CNN, CBS, TikTok & HBO.

Yes, this is oligarchy.

The United States gave Netanyahu over $24 billion in taxpayer dollars to fund his horrific war in Gaza.

That wasn't enough. Netanyahu wanted war with Iran. Trump gave him one.

The American people — not Netanyahu’s right-wing government — should determine U.S. foreign policy.

Incredibly normal to be banging on the door of the Quakers repeatedly but allowing literal organisations such as Britain first to stalk homes of refugees and domestic violence survivors every weekend.

Totally normal is this government. Not worried at all.
Yesterday evening, for the second time in a year, the Met Police raided Westminster Quaker Meeting House and arrested a number of young nonviolent activists.

*No Other Land* airs on *Channel 4 at 11.15pm, Tuesday 4 March.* Please share widely so as many people as possible can witness how Israel steals Palestinian land and destroys homes and lives, shown through the eyes of Basel, a Palestinian filmmaker, and Yuval, an Israeli journalist.

Working class Americans have a significantly shorter lifespan than people who are wealthy.

Why? Economic stress can have a major impact upon your body, your mind & how long you live.

I’d love to hear from you: How has stress affected your heath?

Conservative billionaires are funding a coordinated effort to dismantle public education to pay for private school vouchers that largely benefit wealthy families and enable corporations to avoid their fair share in taxes.

Now they have a friend in the White House.

Trump/Musk regime has cut funds for the International Rescue Committee- founded by Albert Einstein,providing assistance in 40 countries to refugees and those displaced by war, persecution, or natural disaster. The most vulnerable people will suffer as a result. A good time to donate

Auschwitz was at the end of a long process. It did not start from gas chambers.

This hatred was gradually developed by humans. From ideas, words, stereotypes & prejudice through legal exclusion, dehumanization & escalating violence... to systematic and industrial murder.

Auschwitz took time.

Only an emboldened psychopath could look at Gaza -the devastation, anguish of civilians- of children, of burn victims, starvation, dying babies,child amputees- in short the immeasurable suffering - and think what “great real estate”! Trump & Kushner are without humanity

I really hope everyone understands what is going on with Elon and Wikipedia.

Wikipedia is one of our last remaining bastions of evidence-based consensus reality.

The MAGA narrative is fundamentally threatened by evidence-based fact, and Wikipedia is a repository of evidence-based fact.
This is ABSOLUTELY factual! Musk’s gesture WAS compared to a Nazi salute or a fascist salute. Musk DID deny any meaning behind the gesture. Musk’s argument appears to be with reality.

BREAKING -- Trump RAISES prescription drug costs.

He just reversed all the cost caps that had been negotiated for anyone on Medicare or Medicaid -- over 120 MILLION Americans.

He's pro Big Pharma -- and pro Big Insurance.

He doesn't care about you. It was all LIES.
