More #ICELawlessness: in Herndon, Virginia, Trump's ICE thugs drew firearms & aimed them into a vehicle containing a family, including a 3-year-old child.

Then these thugs dropped the toddler & injured her as agents pulled her mother from the car.

How can we let our government do this?

Look at this graph.

The share of national income going to the richest 10 percent was lowest (and share to lower 90 percent highest) when union membership was at its highest. As unions have weakened, inequality has widened.

This is why we must build back union power.

Heads up:

Taylor Farms lettuce is sold under these brand names:

Marketside (sold at Walmart)

Earthbound Farm (owned by Taylor Farms)

Cross Valley Farms (owned by US Foods)

Private labels for Target, Whole Foods (365), and Amazon Fresh.

I'll summarize this: Mamdani asked NYers to keep air conditioning at 78 degrees. A wave criticism hit online. A MSNBC broadcast pointed out the US Department of Energy recommends that 78 degree figure.

Immediately after, the US Department of Energy deleted 6,000 web pages related to energy saving.

The Supreme Court didn’t side with a drug user. It sided with promoting further unfettered access to guns. The decision wasn’t about personal liberty—it was about enabling our nation’s insane firearms fetish.

"The mere existence of trillionaires is a major political and economic problem, probably the defining issue of our time," writes @gabrielzucman.bsky.social.

"When the power of wealth is wielded by sociopaths, the consequences are a matter of life and death."
The era of trillionaires will be dire for democracy. Here is how we can fight back | Gabriel Zucman
There is a fundamental tension between extreme wealth and the very possibility of democracy. That’s because extreme wealth is always an extreme power

For those who have forgotten the past 40 years:

Tax cuts for the rich
...don’t trickle down

Boosting military spending
...doesn’t bring peace

Slashing regulations
...doesn’t create jobs

Folks, we’ve seen this all before.

Remember how dignified the White House used to look before flashy new-money white-trash moved in? The British in the War of 1812 treated the building with more respect.

If you were to count out a million seconds, it would take you 11 and a half days.

A billion seconds would take you 31.7 years.

But a trillion seconds would take 31,700 years — to reach that point today, you would have needed to start counting around the time that neanderthals went extinct.
A trillion dollars is a stupid amount of money
No one man should have all that power.
