The wages of the richest 1% have skyrocketed 182% since 1979.  Meanwhile, the wages of the bottom 90% have seen just 44% growth.  Trickle down economics was always a hoax.

tesla dealership protests are happening across the country—so i went the palo alto dealership (where the tech oligarchs have mainly made their wealth) to see what their current and former community thinks of them!

"I think Epstein is one of those people who truly knew Donald Trump, knew many secrets about Donald Trump, and was threatening to Donald Trump."

A quick breakdown of why everyone is so mad at Schumer⬇️

We’re bombing Yemen, alienating our allies, and the stock market just lost $5 trillion—but don’t worry! Trump won a rigged golf tournament, so everything is just fine!

Elon Musk claims "the leftists" are bad-mouthing his company. This isn't true. It's ordinary car buyers who are fed the fuck up.

This Weekend in Politics, Bulletin 92. Everything you need to know about what happened this weekend in politics. open.substack.com/pub/meidasto...

Markets falling, investors fleeing the US, retaliatory tariffs hit Trump counties, allies abandon US weapons, environmental rollbacks spark outrage, and Putin stalls peace. This weekend's bulletin is free for all—don't miss it:

🚨BREAKING: Donald Trump is claiming dictatorial power, declaring in a social media post that the pardons issued by former President Biden are null and void—using lies as his justification.

BREAKING: Trump declares presidential pardons Biden gave in final days of office to be "VOID, VACANT, AND OF NO FURTHER FORCE OR EFFECT". Rich coming from the guy who ran a fake university, faked his net worth, and probably faked a doctor’s note to dodge Vietnam.

I wrote about the deadly storm that has brought a mix of tornadoes, wildfires, high-speed winds, flooding, dust storms, and hail to the middle of the country. And how DOGE-cuts threaten to make this event—and ones like it—so, so much worse.

Wolff: Certainly 80, 90, probably 100 hours I have of Epstein on tape. We spent a lot of time talking about Donald Trump and Epstein’s relationship with him, which went on for a good 15 years and was incredibly close—they were each other’s closest friend for a very long time.

The corporate media is too afraid to discuss Michael Wolff’s book about Trump and the author says he’s been virtually blacklisted. So we knew we had to chat with him. Listen on Apple: podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/t... Listen on Spotify: open.spotify.com/episode/6FIg...

NEW: We went to the heart of Silicon Valley to hear what Elon Musk's former community had to say about the tech oligarch takeover. From the frontline of the growing Tesla protest movement and the epicenter of tech bro wealth, this is what Palo Alto wants America to know about their former neighbor:

I don’t like this @gtconway.bsky.social 😵‍💫😵‍💫😵‍💫

this is a golden age for walking out of your lab with a USB key in your pocket getting on a plane and going to Luxembourg

It is genuinely your moral duty, if you’re in the sciences, to violate the terms of your contact and take as much of the research home with you as you can. Today, tomorrow, every day your lab’s still open.

A little sound to start the week. 🎶📢 Because peaceful protest is our right! 😂 #HumanRights

For what it's worth, I am so incredibly proud of this man. Thank you, President Zelenskyy, for showing us what real leadership and strength looks like. #AmericansSupportUkraine #СлаваУкраїні open.substack.com/pub/libraryo...

The biggest entitlement crisis in America is Trump and Musk’s sense of entitlement—they think they own the country. But we’re going to defend Social Security and Medicare against Musk’s chainsaw as the slash-and-burn campaign continues.

House Dems are ready and eager to vote for a 4-week funding extension to block these devastating cuts and keep the government open, allowing us to reach a serious bipartisan compromise.

I introduced legislation to help state and local governments invest in road safety efforts—in memory of Sarah Langenkamp, a fine diplomat, an amazing mother and a beloved friend. I'm grateful to her family for working with me to make our streets and community safer.

One day after Republicans passed a bill to slash NOAA funding, DOGE plans to cut 1,000 jobs from the agency which produces weather data and climate science. Trump thinks he can redirect hurricanes with his Sharpie but you don’t need a weatherman to know this administration blows.

Eyes on the full blood moon late tonight. Total lunar eclipse in all of North America including Canada, US and Mexico. Rather symbolic don't you think? This set of photos taken in 2019. #astronomy #eclipse #moon

Don’t forget, there is a lunar eclipse tonight for the majority of North America. If you’ve never seen one I highly recommend setting an alarm and making an effort to watch. You don’t need anything fancy, you just get to see a big red moon in the sky! science.nasa.gov/solar-system...

I was strolling along the beach, totally lost in thought, when the sky suddenly burst into these incredible colours at sunset. I was so captivated by the scene that I just had to capture it. It felt like a moment too beautiful not to share. What do you think? #nature #sunset

Nothing like some crypto and the need for a pardon to spark a potential business relationship during Trump 2.0

Ruth Marcus spent 40 years at the Washington Post and witnessed the newspaper’s editorial principles erode under the ownership of Jeff Bezos. In a new essay, she writes about why she finally made the decision to quit.
