@raskin.house.gov Why are you not demanding Mitch McConnell show up?? WTF man

If things are going so great for Trump & Hegseth, why hire conservative influencers (a/k/a butt-kissers) to work for the DOD? New reporting on how American taxpayers may be paying for these civilians to peddle propaganda while punishing those in the military speaking out: youtu.be/pwvSiPzdYIA?...

Target paid its CEO $21.8M last year — 794x the median Target worker's pay of $27,506. Target has also spent $13.9B on stock buybacks since 2019, while remaining among the largest employers of Medicaid and SNAP recipients in America. This is what I mean by a rigged economy.

If you owe a woman $5 million dollars for sexual assault, you also owe the country your resignation.

To anyone writing about or thinking about the so-called "deal" with Venezuela for its oil reserves: It's theft, an "agreement" at the barrel of a gun. Please don't sanitize it. open.substack.com/pub/america/...

“Why didn’t scientists warn us?”

Four months ago, top scientists published a report showing that Himalayan glaciers are losing ice at double the rate since 2000, with some glaciers losing a third of their area in just three decades. "This isn’t a distant problem; it’s a crisis unfolding in real-time," they said. We were warned.

I can guarantee you that right now, Trump is thinking about himself, and not about you. Sad. 😎✨

Mitch McConnell is dead. The burden to prove otherwise rests with the GOP, not us. Let’s proceed accordingly.

White Nationalists are attacking Americans on their own soil White Nationalists are bearing false witness to judges They are starving, torturing & raping inmates They are injuring & murdering protesters They are openly disobeying our judges & our laws They got us into another war while gutting us

"It’s not new that Americans are seen by others as an unserious people. But the willingness to twice elect a man so buffoonish, depraved and hateful to our highest office provokes the belief that Americans...cannot be trusted any longer to do the right thing." open.substack.com/pub/america/...

Goes without saying but the president directing the fcc to “punish” nbc because a poll made him mad would have consumed basically any other White House in endless scandal

"Silicon Valley’s motto is 'move fast and break things,' very much including local laws and regulations," writes Ryan Cooper. "The 'wishes of the community' are just another thing to be trampled underfoot by the tech billionaire class in pursuit of some imagined glorious sci-fi utopia." #AI

Assessing the absence of civility in political rhetoric in America, the Economist finds it isn't a "both sides" sort of thing. Uncivil language, as well as calls for acts of physical violence against other Americans, is very much the province of MAGA, and much of it traces straight to Donald J Trump

Boycott Google, as it shamelessly panders to that idiotic vulgar slob.

Just imagine if a President of the United States was an asset for Russia. Now imagine that President bankrupts and steals from the country to give to oligarch’s. And at the same time, completely depletes the military. This is “just if” of course.
