The world is drowning in plastic. Experts say we need to stop making so much. But the plastics industry is peddling a "solution" that works like magic. Don't be fooled. (Published June 2024)

A Muslim son of immigrants might become mayor of NYC in part because he cross endorsed and supported a Jewish candidate and Black candidate, and vice versa. It's a beautiful American story for the rest of us. A nightmare for all the right people ;) It's so New York.

I just dislike how EVERY holiday turns into at least a week of firework noise from the moment the sun sets until after midnight. Can you NOT?

Jeff Bezos is worth $230 billion and is reportedly spending $20 million on a three-day wedding in Venice while sailing around on his $500 million yacht. If he can afford to do that, he can afford a wealth tax and to pay Amazon workers a living wage. Hello?

Oh, so Trump told Iran it was "fine" to shoot missiles at our troops? I can't wait to read all about it in Jake Tapper's next book due out in 2029

HOLY SHIT!! 💩 The Pentagon created fake Iran war plans because they knew Trump would leak the real one on Truth social. That's like giving a toddler a toy steering wheel while you drive the car… Insane, but not entirely unsurprising, is it?! 😎✨

Donald Trump lost the 2020 election by 7 million votes but still says he won. Are people really stupid enough to believe what he says about Iran's nuclear program?

What traitorous shit has Dump said now...oh ya! Trump: “Iran was very nice, they gave us warning. They said we’re going to shoot them. Is 1 o’clock ok? I said it’s fine… and everybody was emptied off the base, so they couldn’t get hurt.” So Dump says it's ok to shoot at Americans. Got it. WTAF!!

Budzinski: Families making over $700,000 a year will see a boost of $12,000 almost entirely from tax cuts. Shockingly, households making $23,000 a year or less are set to lose about $1600 a year, mostly due to deep cuts to Medicaid and food assistance

I have been receiving a ton of emails about the ethics report showing Stephen Miller owning stock in Palantir - lining his pockets off his unlawful mass-deportation agenda. Tomorrow I'll be interviewing the author of that report. Subscribe for free: podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/t...

They’re planning on building a detention center for migrants in the middle of the fetid swamps of Florida. If you think this is something new, the first internment camp they sent me and my family to in 1942 was a barbed wire prison called Rohwer. It was located in the swamps of Arkansas.

NO. Americans won’t just ‘get over it’ - they’ll face pain, higher costs and gut wrenching choices about their health care. We all need to stand up against this bill.

People in wheelchairs are getting arrested right now in the Russell Senate Office Building in DC. They showed up to tell Congress not to cut their Medicaid, because they cant afford health care without it. If you look closely you can see the zip ties on their hands. #WeWontGetOverLosingMedicaid

UPDATE: “The man who impersonated ICE to intimidate the employees of a Philly auto repair center — and steal about $1,000 — will face numerous felony and misdemeanor charges…”: www.phillyvoice.com/philly-robbe... Fake ICE agents were inevitable. How can cities be proactive about this?

Sen. Blumenthal: Did you speak with Stephen Miller before you issued the memo to dismiss Eric Adams' case? Bove: I refuse to answer that question because it isn't appropriate for me to discuss it with you.

This is oligarchy. This is obscene. While 60% live paycheck to paycheck & kids go hungry, Jeff Bezos, worth $230 billion, goes to Venice on his $500 million yacht for a $20 million wedding & spends $5 million on a ring while his real tax rate is just 1.1%. End this oligarchy.

Here's your periodic reminder that political centrism is nonsense. There is no middle ground between democracy and oligarchy.

Socialism is what they called public power. Socialism is what they called social security. Socialism is what they called the growth of free and independent labor organizations. Socialism is their name for almost anything that helps all the people. —Harry Truman, 1952
