NYT found the “big beautiful bill” would be the largest transfer from the poor to the rich in a single law since at least 1990. In fact, it would be the largest transfer *ever.* Reagan’s low-income cuts were MUCH smaller - and his tax cuts were done separately. And before him, nothing comes close.

I am in downtown Los Angeles right now and it is completely surreal to hear that Trump is sending Marines here. We are listening to mariachi music. People have dogs. There are teenagers here. It is utterly and completely peaceful. Please tell your friends.

This is an important reminder: even the LAPD acknowledged yesterday that everything was peaceful. Then Trump brought the chaos. He is responsible.

Dozens of journalists were assaulted by law enforcement in Los Angeles this weekend. The press were just doing their job -- a sacred one explicitly protected by law. Press rights orgs will follow up collectively tomorrow. Tonight, I emailed evidence to local/state/federal officials. My sign off:

The regime is looking to provoke violence so they have an excuse to invoke the Insurrection Act, criminalize dissent, and federalize the National Guard. The movement can win with mass participation if we maintain non-violent discipline and win defections from the security forces.

just that period reminder that content posted to Bluesky is public to *anybody*. if you don't want to see it used in a court of law, don't post it here. and DMs here are not E2EE, they can be subpoened. a great use for bsky DMs is to share secure comms and move the conversation there.

i was just in paramount basically a block away from ground zero of the confrontation, there is no civil unrest, nothing is wrong. people are going about their business heading to dinner and parties.

Los Angeles school worker shares frustration over parents having to leave their children’s graduation ceremony because ICE raided an elementary school’s graduation today

Wait... is this the best meme ever made?

Next to Trump and Musk, Shatner and I look like adoring newlyweds.

I don’t aspire to be rich. I aspire to have enough. I want my neighbors to have enough. I want everyone to have shelter, education, homes, healthcare. I don’t have much in common with folks who are not for the working class bc I am working class.

@jamescomey.bsky.social is still a turd streaked with misogyny.

This is your regular reminder that executive orders are not royal decrees. Because America has no king.

Huge shoutout to everyone this is what a global boycott looks like. Tesla just reported a staggering 71% drop in profits compared to Q1 of 2024. It’s working. Keep the pressure on.

@aerlingus.bsky.social is this actually the company or a fraud account?

@cantwell.senate.gov @murray.senate.gov I was able to log into my SS account last week. This week, here's what happens when I log in:

if we want to rebuild american institutions and earn back the world’s trust after this we cannot settle for half-measures. lots of people need to go prison. lots more need to be permanently stripped of wealth and power.

"I didn't vote for" you did. Sorry. You did. Should have listened to the woke libtards instead of your roided out imaginary friends who told you kids were pooping in kitty litter at school

Deactivated my Twitter account.

@aerlingus.bsky.social has an IMPOSSIBLE process for refunds. mostly no human interaction, only AI/automated messages. I've been routed through "chat" tools that never have humans involved, and no phone number to call. It's going to be months to get my refund...

BREAKING NEWS: ELECTIONS STILL MATTER!!! CUT THE NIHILISM AND GET TO WORK!!!!

@nytimes.com are you reporting on booker?

This is Rumeysa Ozturk. I feel chills looking at her, wondering where ICE has taken her. Since Elon's tweet about me I've feared getting picked up like her. But I (still) have some level of protection as a citizen. But for how long? Being here on a visa doesn't mean you have no rights.

Join me tomorrow at the Bellevue 20th St location!
