Microsoft: $101 BILLION in profits. $12.5 BILLION in tax breaks. $176 BILLION in stock buybacks. 4,800 workers fired this week. 9,000 workers fired last year. Please don't tell me trickle-down economics works. It never did. Nothing trickles down.

This Thursday, SpaceX insiders will be released from their first post-IPO stock lockup and can cash out early. As I've been saying, this has all the hallmarks of a Ponzi scheme.

If it wasn’t for truck drivers, we’d starve. If it wasn’t for sanitation workers, we’d be overrun by rats and disease. If it wasn’t for construction workers, we wouldn’t have roads and the economy would collapse. Just because a job isn’t glorious doesn’t mean it’s not existentially important.

The effective federal corporate income tax rate: 1950: 50% 1990: 25% 2020: 13% Stop asking "but how we will pay for it?" Restore the corporate tax rate. That is how we will pay for it.

Actually disgusting that nurses were treated like utter shit, overworked and dying during the pandemic and now RFK is on TV telling everyone that didn't happen. I can't even imagine a more thankless, hostile job right now.

RFK Jr.: “You probably don’t understand this as you’re not a scientist.” Dana Bash: “You’re not a scientist either.”

RFK Jr and wife had a soiree at their Hollywood mansion during COVID and required proof of COVID vaccination with RSVP. Watch what they do, not what they say. –Rachel Maddow

I know things are bad but please don't pass up adopting that puppy or kitty that you've been thinking about. My house and my rescue foster network are so full that we are passing up on lives that we could save because adoptions have trickled to a stop in 2026. And we're not the only rescue affected.

Why so serious? Today I surprised a group of young New Yorkers working at the CityArts Bronx mural project for the summer. Their task? Giving the Bronx's famous Joker Stairs a new chapter as the Shakespeare steps.

"Taxing the rich doesn't work." Tell that to Massachusetts. Their millionaire tax has raised $3.1 BILLION so far. It's funding bridges, buses, teachers, free community college, and free school meals. This isn't theory. It's working. We've got the receipts.

Senator John McCain warned us about Rand Paul when he said, “The senator from Kentucky is now working for Vladimir Putin.”
