15 years ago the Supreme Court decided corporations are people under the First Amendment. Today, billionaire political spending is up 160-fold since that ruling. Citizens United is among the worst decisions in history. It corrupts our system every day.

THREAD: The Trump administration's DOJ has removed a study from the NIJ website that found that immigrants, and particularly undocumented immigrants, commit crimes at significantly lower rates than U.S. citizens. The study is at odds with the Trump regime's propaganda about immigrants & crime. (1)

The top five egg producers own roughly half of all U.S. laying hens. The biggest of those corporations is Cal-Maine, which just announced quarterly profits of $509 million — more than 3x what it made a year ago. Corporate concentration + bird flu = a price-hiking free for all.

If you haven’t seen this, you need to! Trump is short-selling America—deliberately tanking the economy so that businesses and entire industries bend the knee and beg him to save them. Thanks, @chrismurphyct.bsky.social, for sounding the alarm. Now, what is Congress going to do about it?

They fired Navy Vice Admiral Shoshana Chatfield—not because she couldn’t do the job, but because she wouldn’t hang up pictures of Trump and Hegseth. This ain’t about merit—it’s about ego.

Trump just shut down the DOJ's unit that investigates crypto fraud. Remember: Trump and his inner circle stand to profit from their crypto investments and a proposed national crypto reserve — while taxpayers could be left holding the bag. It's a new Golden Age for corruption.

SpaceX just landed a $5.92B contract with the Pentagon for Space Force rocket launches — the largest contract among the three firms who secured deals to send satellites into orbit. While DOGE cuts essential services for you, Musk is getting a taxpayer-funded windfall. Hello?

Am I depressed because of what's happening or am I depressed because of the people who somehow didn't see it coming? Both. It's both.

MUST WATCH: Rümeysa Öztürk’s legal team reads her first statement since detention outside of courthouse. The government must immediately release Rümeysa Öztürk from custody. The First Amendment protects all of us — regardless of citizenship status.

The bloodbaths at IMLS (Institute of Museum and Library Services) and NEH (National Endowment for the Humanities) show that Musk's DOGE has NOTHING TO DO WITH SAVING $. IMLS budget: $295M NEH budget: $211M These are tiny drops in the federal spending bucket. This is about ideological control.
