The richest man owns X.
The second and third richest men control Google.
The fourth richest man owns The Washington Post.
The seventh richest man owns Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp.
And now the sixth richest could soon take over both Paramount and Warner Bros.

If Makerfield decide they prefer a dodgy plumber who admits to be a misogynist, rather than a man who fought for Hillsborough survives and successfully championed for the NW of England, then as a nation we are done.

Yesterday on @lbc.co.uk , @mrjamesob.bsky.social asked a deceptively simple question about the Gulf and Strait of Hormuz:
"What has actually changed?"
The more I thought about it, the less my answer had to do with missiles, warships or oil prices.

I had fun reading to some Burke Elementary students at the Chicago Public Library today. When the Obama Presidential Center opens next year, we’ll have a new branch of the library for the community to enjoy.

Trumpnomics: Get tariff money from US consumers on Chinese goods. Our farmers can’t sell their products because the Chinese refuse to pay our tariffs. China buys from farmers in Argentina instead. We send Argentina $20 billion. Then we pay our farmers to throw their crops away.

People of Illinois, we need your help.
Get your cell phones out – record what you see. Put it on social media. Peacefully ask for badge numbers and identification. Speak up for your neighbors.
We need to let the world know this is happening – and that we won’t stand for it.
