BREAKING: Today, I'm introducing a bill to BAN corporate takeovers of your doctor's office. Doctors should be able to care for their patients without greedy private equity investors getting in the way. Let's get this done.

Zillionaire @nickhanauer.bsky.social exposes one of the core lies of neoliberal capitalism: you are worth what you are paid. Watch more at @TheDiaryOfACEO.
In 2014, Nick Hanauer wrote a now-famous article in Politico warning his fellow plutocrats that the pitchforks were coming. He was right. The only question is what comes next.
Host Nick Hanauer has a simple Social Security fix. It would permanently secure funding, give 95% of Americans a raise, and drive economic growth across the country. How do you think we should solve Social Security's financial shortfall?

37-year-old lifelong New Yorker here. You know, growing up, I don’t remember being trapped inside by toxic wildfire smoke. Certainly not with this regularity. I have a toddler. I am beyond outraged over the state of the planet he will inherit—a crisis fueled by greedy businessmen and their allies

You’ve probably had your limit at this point, please read this explanation of what happened yesterday and share it widely. It’s more important than ever to make sure people understand why we have to vote for democracy and we have to get started now if we want to be able to vote.
