I’m tempted to enjoy the Trump humiliations. But I think it also important to note that as they mount, Trump is becoming even more erratic and dangerous. Beware. https://robertreich.substack.com/p/the-mounting-humiliations-of-dj-trump

We were the only UNIONIZED employees he’d ever had, too.
I am broke as hell now, but I’ll never regret saying this: EAT SHIT, YOU PATHETIC TWERP. No matter how much cash you accrue, you’ll never know the joy of solidarity. Your life is empty, and you’ll be remembered as a warning to children.

While the world’s eyes are on fashion’s biggest night, we’re turning ours to the garment, retail, and warehouse workers who keep the industry running.
From true love found on the picket line to a free tailoring school out of a Brooklyn basement — meet the New Yorkers who make it all possible.

Illinois wrote the playbook on anti-BDS laws in the US. It’s time we fix it.
In 2015, Illinois became the first state to pass a law like this. Other states followed, turning free speech into something that can be punished.
But you can be part of history to repeal this law:

Meta just paid the lowest effective federal tax rate in its history.
Thanks to tax breaks and loopholes, it avoided $13.7B in 2025 federal income taxes.
But now it's planning to lay off 10% of its global workforce (8,000 people) by May 20 — with more job cuts later this year.
Trickle down hoax.

We have gotten to a temporary ceasefire, but Trump's calls for genocide and war crimes show he is completely unhinged. The cabinet must invoke the 25th amendment to remove him - and then we need to remove the entire pro-war apparatus in Washington that got us to this point in the first place.

Some of them have spent more on defeating this than they would have had to pay.
Billionaires are crying foul about California's proposed wealth tax.
Don't fall for their fearmongering.
A one-time, 5% tax on their excessive wealth is essential to funding what millions of Californians need — and to preserving our democracy.

I just called my US rep and senators and told them they have to do everything they can to stop this genocide. I told them I don't care if they're in the minority. They have options. I told them to chain themselves to the White House fence.

The biggest story in the world right now is that the president of the United States is a demented old man who takes pleasure in torturing and killing people and is committing crimes with impunity. And yet most legacy media outlets are too cowardly to tell it like it is.

Wealth inequality is eating this country alive. Concentrated wealth is already endangering our democracy. Wealth doesn’t just beget more wealth — it begets more power.
