100% rage bait to distract from the Elon mess of yesterday.

America’s 2nd-largest private employer. 👀 @businessinsider.com $AMZN www.businessinsider.com/amazon-freez...

Trump is calling all the networks to tell everyone he's not thinking about Musk. Not at all. Nuh uh.

Next week’s Robotaxi drama getting an early start. 🤡 @reuters $TSLA www.reuters.com/business/aut...

“Today, only about a fifth of American movies and shows are filmed in L.A. .. None of 2024’s ten highest-grossing live-action movies was shot in L.A. Nor was a single one of this year’s Best Picture nominees — the first time that’s happened since 1971.” @vulture.com www.vulture.com/article/holl...

As of April, there was about one unemployed job seeker for every job opening in the US economy.

The budget bill passed by the house would increase deficits (and debt) by at least $2.4T over 10 years. That is, indeed, outrageous. My @morningjoe-msnbc.bsky.social Chart

We’re already on track for the national debt to soar further above our GDP. The House bill is just going to make that problem worse. My @morningjoe-msnbc.bsky.social Chart

The House bill is sending America deep into the red in the long term for the short-term political gain of pandering tax cuts. My @morningjoe-msnbc.bsky.social Chart

Trump promised a lot of tax cuts, but Congress, like Musk, couldn’t find enough to cut. My @morningjoe-msnbc.bsky.social Chart

When it comes to the debt, the GOP needs to learn that tax cuts are just as irresponsible as spending increases. My @morningjoe-msnbc.bsky.social Chart

It’s surprising that someone whose businesses depend so heavily on government support would choose to pick a fight with a famously vindictive president.

Trump is closing a major airport to accommodate a military parade for his birthday – the parade is estimated to cost as much as $45 million. This coming from the president who said little girls are fine with 2 dolls not 30. www.washingtonpost.com/business/202...

US payrolls growth dropped to 139K in May.

Unemployment remained at 4.2% for the third month in a row in May.

Trump’s quest to ‘bring back’ American manufacturing isn’t going to make Americans better off. In my latest for @nytopinion.nytimes.com , I explain why. www.nytimes.com/2025/06/06/o...

giggle ... the narcissists are at war.

Only 1/2 of employers pay health care ... never mind gig workers who have no employers.

I said recently that AI is now hot dogs made up from ground-up hot dogs made from ground-up hot dogs ad infinitum. The data supports this. AI is cannibalizing its own output. For the machines, their own nonsense is now canon

These gents are absolutely spoiling for an opportunity to re-enact Kent State

If you missed it, her response to the destruction of what little health care poor folks can get was 'we're all going to die'. Here, she doubles down.

Trump administration to vet social media accounts of student visa applicants It won't end there.

6/1/2025- Free Speech www.timesfreepress.com/news/2025/ma...

Busting up big corporations and tackling Wall Street’s greed. Getting big money out of politics.  Strengthening unions and fighting for higher wages. Medicare for all, paid leave, universal childcare... This is the progressive populist agenda we need in America.

As the climate crisis brings on increasingly hotter summers, keeping our homes cool can be a matter of life or death. Meanwhile, Trump is trying to eliminate a program that helps millions of people pay their energy bills and keep the AC on. Hello?

Trump's SEC has dropped a major lawsuit against Binance, the world's largest crypto exchange. This comes just weeks after the Trump family's crypto venture (World Liberty Financial) helped broker a $2B deal between Binance and a UAE state-backed firm. It's all out in the open.

GOP legislatures in Alaska, Nebraska, and Missouri are trying overturn voter-approved referenda requiring paid sick leave. And in 9 other red states, Republican lawmakers are trying to restrict citizen-led ballot measures altogether. The GOP can't stand the will of the people.
