Last night's Pentagon massacre is much more than realized. Not just firing the black CJCS and first woman CNO but all the senior JAG officers and hiring a man who just joined 3 different crypto firms tied to Kushner and Thiel as Chairman. I did a deep dive into it open.substack.com/pub/fpwellma...

There is no such thing as a humane mass deportation. There will be concentration camps on military bases, separations, assaults, sexual assaults, child molestation, human trafficking & deaths that this administration, Border Patrol, ICE & CBP will attempt to hide.

Drug prices just went up, and Big Pharma wants even more. They’re pushing Congress to weaken cost-saving tools for workers, unions, and employers—all to boost their profits. Here’s what’s at stake: bit.ly/4gu5A86

This is a great read. A strike is really what we need. There is one being organized currently but we need to reach that 3.5 percent which is 11 Million. No easy task. We also need union backing so we can have a strike fund. General Strikes open.substack.com/pub/robpalme...

In 2024, The New Republic and Proof wrote a ton about Yarvin. Now—thankfully—everyone is interested. He's the leader of a cult at least one of the three co-presidents is in, along with the VP and a top lieutenant of yet another co-president. America needs to know how dangerous these cultists are.

Musk traveled to Moscow in 2002 to negotiate the purchase of rockets for his fledgling space program, BUT PASSED OUT DURING A VODKA-HEAVY LUNCH. The sale failed, but his Russian hosts gave Musk a bottle of vodka with his likeness superimposed on a drawing of Mars. archive.is/yzrwe

To be clear: the United States Government deployed this family to a country with substandard healthcare with the promise that help would be on the way if they ever needed it. Now, Donald Trump twice denied this woman a potentially life-saving, embassy-requested medevac.

Have you heard about the SAVE Act? It's the newest effort at voter suppression by the House GOP & it's important for all of us.

The irony of the richest man in the world almost single-handedly destroying an agency designed to help the world’s poor, so that the U.S. federal budget has more room for another giant tax cut for the richest man in the world and his pals, should not be lost on anyone. [Cartoon by Mike Luckovich]

Fascism isn’t coming to America, it’s already here. We are long past the warnings of an approaching existential threat looming on the distant horizon of our story, which many of us spent the past decade imploring people not to ignore. johnpavlovitz.substack.com/p/fascism-is...

The GOP has moved along a budget bill that would strip $880 BILLION from Medicaid. A budget that uses public programs as a piggy bank to fund tax breaks for the wealthy & corporations at the expense of some of our most vulnerable. This CANNOT pass! #HandsOffMyMedicaid #ProudBlue #DemCast

It is perfectly legal to know your rights and to educate others about them, too. EVERYONE in the United States, citizen or not, has rights. I will not allow this administration to intimidate us from helping you know about them. Here’s our shareable guide ⬇️: (pt. 1/2)
