De-Google your life. Not only because they’re removing history and heritage months from their holiday calendars, but also because they track, steal, and sell your data.

the OTHER thing about the white house’s anti-diversity push is that like old fashioned segregation it is explicitly an effort to undermine unions! like c’mon! don’t be stupid!

If you work for the federal government and are tempted to take Musk’s “buyout” offer please know that you’re never going to see that money.

Since the FBI appears to be the only agency that is both still functioning and not headed by a lunatic, the Washington Field Office needs to open an investigation into the breach of the computer systems at Treasury, stat

Jasmine Crockett: "The problem is that Americans thought it was okay to take a full fledged criminal and make him the President of the US and then they want to act aghast when he does criminal things. Let me tell you, we have a thug in charge of the US and if we don't wake up we may not have a US"

honestly think some of the hesitation here is that no one wants to sound like a crank. i was talking at an event last night and even i felt like a crank while i was speaking!

44 states and the federal government are now suing property management companies over their use of an AI pricing tool to raise rents. Utah is the latest state to join the lawsuit accusing over 600 corporate landlords of using RealPage software to form an illegal rent cartel.

This is your mission. We take our power back now at the local and state level. Stop waiting for a national hero. It’s you. Get to work.

Two of the biggest meatpacking companies will pay $8 million after the Department of Labor found migrant children working in slaughterhouses for years. Perdue Farms and JBS had kids operating dangerous tools on the graveyard shift. Some minors were maimed and burned on the job.

One billionaire couple owns almost all the water in California. In 1994, the Resnicks secretly seized control of California’s public water supply. Now their companies use 150 billion gallons every year while working class people suffer under drought conditions. www.youtube.com/watch?v=4B19...

$1,131,794,901 That's how much Big Oil has spent over the last 30 years paying off Congress to look the other way on climate action while the planet burns. Well, the planet is burning. Don't let them look away.

Some firefighters battling the Palisades fire in LA are reporting that hydrants are coming up dry. Southern California has gotten approximately .1 inches of rain since this past May. We need urgent climate action now. www.latimes.com/california/s...

Landlords who collude using potentially illegal algorithms are forcing tenants to pay more. In Denver, renters paid an average of $136 more every month to landlords who used rent-setting algorithms. And nearly 50% of Denver landlords are using them.

While we’re banning books… Finland is teaching children in school how to recognize fake news and propaganda as part of critical thinking and civic responsibility. Some of this will seem very familiar. Be. Like. Finland.

法轮功的神韵用各种方式敛财2.66亿美元,供奉李洪志夫妇,让他们能在美国过上骄奢淫逸的生活。从信用卡记录看,李大师喜欢吃海鲜、打台球、穿名贵衣服、收藏手表和奢侈品。

It’s bizarre how the US ruling class take holidays in European cities where they can enjoy nice public spaces, public transit, pedestrianised streets, mixed-use neighbourhoods, public healthcare and nice architecture, and then go home and deny these things to their citizens.

Wait, hold on. Still thinking of appropriate things I can say of Luigi Mangione here

"The Global South’s workforce provides a staggering 90% of the labor to power the world economy, yet gets only 21% of global income." www.science.org/content/arti...

Well done RollingStone for reporting it accurately.

The first major race of 2025 is fast approaching—and the implications are enormous. This election will determine the balance of the Wisconsin Supreme Court. Susan Crawford is fighting to preserve her seat while her opponent, rightwing extremist Brad Schimel, is trying to grab the tie-breaking vote.

Recently took a peek at Twitter and the disinformation is getting substantially more dangerous. Someone could get killed. The tactics of constantly repeating outright lies, targeting specific people, repurposing years-old footage and presenting them as new is getting to another level. It’s scary.

Even though most people use Chrome/Chromium, I've found _at least_ 22 different browsers, many I had never heard of before. Here's my ongoing list, ranging from niche to absurdly common. https://docs.google.com/document/d/1qe0ahB7RnyYzkZ03OltkiYYJqmt0zhsFTqEa6Q83Cg4/edit?tab=t.0

Whoever controls production, and the surplus we produce, determines the shape and direction of our civilisation. If we do not have democratic control over our surplus then we can hardly say we live in a democracy.

Execute women for having abortions? How about, “Executing men for proposing a bill to execute women for having abortions”?

The world's richest man managed to take $190 million away from a *child cancer research center* with his posts yesterday. Funding now stripped in the new bill.

Billionaires have more money than they could ever need but never enough to fill the holes in their souls. They would send every last one of you into an early grave if it meant paying one cent less in taxes.

Thank God Vanity Fair is keeping it REAL!

After failing to merge with Albertsons and create the biggest supermarket chain in the country, Kroger quickly launched a $7.5 billion stock buyback to enrich wealthy shareholders. In response, unions are calling for the CEO to be replaced. www.reuters.com/business/ret...

The 12 richest people in America have a combined wealth of over $2 trillion. In contrast the poorer 50% of America, about 167,000,000 people, have a combined net worth of $3.8 trillion. inequality.org/article/twel...

Remember the FBI informant who claimed President Biden took millions in bribes from Burisma? He admitted today in federal court that he made the whole thing up. And that he started spinning new lies after meeting with Russian intelligence. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

A Florida woman was charged Tuesday after police said she ended a call with BlueCross BlueShield with the words, “Delay, Deny, Depose. You people are next.” She was charged with threats to conduct a mass shooting or an act of terrorism, and her bond was set at $100,000. www.wfla.com/news/polk-co...

So Luigi Mangione could just run for president and have the charges dropped if he wins, is that how it works?

What the hell are we even doing? Normalizing & green-lighting another psychotic madman. That’s what we’re doing. It’s f’ing insane.

The Biden administration today awarded $135 million to help California communities clean up air pollution and combat climate change by replacing diesel and gas-powered buses and trucks with electric vehicles. calmatters.org/environment/... 📝 @gauchoesque.bsky.social

It's rare you get such a clear illustration of whose lives have value in America and whose don't

In an extraordinary display of political retribution, California’s card room industry spent over $3 million targeting four lawmakers as payback for their votes on a gambling bill. Three of the lawmakers lost. cal.news/4g7KGML 📝 Ryan Sabalow

Last week, the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) announced a historic $1.8 BILLION settlement for 4.3 million people who were charged illegal fees or defrauded by credit repair companies. Remember this the next time a billionaire says they want to get rid of the CFPB.

BREAKING: In an unprecedented move, more than 75 Nobel Prize winners have signed a letter urging senators not to confirm Robert F. Kennedy Jr. as head of the Department of Health and Human Services. It's the first time in history that Nobel laureates have come together to oppose a Cabinet choice.

Amid the backdrop that more than a dozen members of Trump's Cabinet are billionaires, a reminder that this is what happened to income inequality in this country once the tax rate for top earners was slashed after 1980. Trickle down does not work and top earners' priority is themselves.
