All politics is economics. If the Supreme Court Citizens United decision grants more political power to those with more money, then to defeat them, it is essential that we target the sources of their wealth. Yes, that means you should sell your Tesla and get off X. open.substack.com/pub/davidrot...

Such hostile nonsense from Americans in power just now. I wish we would listen to people who have suffered for reporting the truth, like Stanislav Aseyev, combat veteran and survivor of a Russian torture camp.

US farmers sold $2 billion of food to USAID. Not any more. - US farmers provided 41% of food delivered by USAID - $340M of purchases/shipments are now paused. Over 680,000 tonnes. - Food stranded in Houston - Aid stopped in transit. The world’s poor starving, food rotting & US farmers screwed.

I've been encountering over the past few days the claim that the planet is warming twice as fast as predicted. This is entirely untruthful and unhelpful. The planet is warming AS fast as predicted, which is cause enough for dramatic action. The truth is bad enough!

Just because the other side cherry-picks short-term fluctuations to deny the climate crisis doesn't mean we should do the same thing to exaggerate it. The truth is bad enough. It's reason enough for dramatic action.

Any news outlet reporting Mexico conceded anything to Trump to get him to delay tariffs has not done its homework. Trump boasts he got Mexico to commit to stationing 10K troops at our border. Apparently he didn't realize Mexico already has 15K troops deployed there prami.ibero.mx/informes-y-i...

Trump is a poor man's idea of a rich man. Elon is dumb man's idea of a smart man. Hegseth is a cowards idea of a brave man. RFKJr is a brain worm's idea of a healthy man. And right now, the USA is an evil man's idea of a just country.

It is truly pathetic that Dems in Congress are trying to work with Trump right now. He's shut down large parts of the government, keeping people from getting health care and preventing large parts of the economy from functioning properly.
