What do these corporations have in common? Netflix Ford Tesla T-Mobile Duke Energy DISH Network Metlife Dominion Energy United States Steel In recent years, they all paid their execs more than they paid in taxes. This is what a corporate-rigged system looks like.

“It's just pure lunacy in the Trump regime. So Donald Trump just returned to Washington, DC after taking yet another vacation in Florida on the taxpayer dime, where he golfed and partied with the billionaire oligarchs.” podcasts.apple.com/se/podcast/t... podcasts.apple.com/se/podcast/t...

Well thankfully we have a constitution and first amendment that will endure long past you fat self

A 5.1 magnitude earthquake just struck San Diego County near Julian, California. I hope everyone is ok!

us government went from telling miners “learn to code” to telling coders “learn to mine” in less than ten years

Oh look. Another bribery and extortion scheme.

"There are daily Russian strikes on our cities. They've attacked over 1,700 schools, killed more than 600 children, and hit 780 medical facilities. We’ve lost 13,000 civilians, and as many as 100,000 of our soldiers. We are paying the highest price possible" Zelensky www.cbsnews.com/news/ukraine...

If the president can spend a quarter of his days in office golfing, corporations can give workers a four-day work week.

Basically: I don’t think people understand that 36 hours from now it’s possible that America will have a formalized system for abducting enemies of the regime and stashing them in foreign gulags, indefinitely. www.thebulwark.com/p/bukele-abr...

Never Forget…..

Watch a major campaign being born.

This is to the shame of our country

Disappearing people without any due process is fascism — full stop. I’m sick to my stomach and we all should be.

The crowd and overflow crowd for the Bernie Sanders/AOC event tonight in Utah. Wow.

The stock portfolios of more than two dozen members of Congress outperformed the market in 2024. This isn't due to luck or skill. Lawmakers can use privileged information to trade stocks while they’re supposed to be working for you. Make no mistake, it’s legalized corruption.

Area Man Claims To Be Strongest Leader in World But Can’t Ask El Salvador a Favor

Palm Sunday Massacre Sumy Ukraine April 13, 2025. So far: 32 civilians murdered including 2 children, 99 wounded, including 11 children. There is a cause / effect correlation between the two pictures, no matter how much people might want to deny it in their own heads.

russians attacked the city as people were going to church. Today, #Ukraine celebrates Palm Sunday. The russians deliberately chose the date and the area of the attack to hit as many victims as possible. 📽️: Суспільне Суми United 24 Media / Instagram

So a POTUS fires judges who ruled against him. Fires Generals who can't stand him. Fires execs who didn't obey him. Destroys cities that didn't vote for him. Imprisons people who speak against him. That POTUS gets a great report from his doc and you believe it? #ProudBlue #Voices4Victory #DemVoice1

Two ballistic missiles struck the heart of the city at around 10:15 a.m. as people gathered to celebrate Palm Sunday, according to officials. www.stripes.com/theaters/eur...

Hitler's concentration camp on the left. Trump's concentration camp on the right.

I can't stop thinking about this.

BREAKING: 36k people showed up in LA for Bernie and AOC’s rally. In the off year. Americans are pissed — and anyone ignoring that is making a big mistake.

Jefferson Griffin is asking North Carolina's courts to retroactively change election rules and throw out 65k ballots so he can win a seat on the state Supreme Court. It's time for federal courts to step in and end his nonsense. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/the-...

#Voices4Victory #DemVoice1 This is the truth. 👇 We have an ignorant, dangerous fool in our WH. Get your shit together and vote better, y’all!

BREAKING: Famed Economist Paul Krugman just told Ari Melber: "This Tariff pause is [still] a tariff rate that is higher overall than Smooth-Hawley. This is a bigger shock to the economy than any trade policy in any country’s history."

England, Germany, France, Denmark, Finland, Belgium, Ireland, The Netherlands, Norway, and Portugal all have new travel advisories for visiting America… It’s. Getting. Worse. ✨

This is fascism. The only good fascist is a dead fascist. The tumor must be excised. #ACAB #TheOnlyGoodFascistIsADeadFascist #HandsOff #ICE #BreakTheICA #DefundICE #DeathToDespots

In recent weeks, the number of people travelling from Europe to the U.S has plummeted — by as much as 35%. The sharp decline in tourism is a direct response to Trump’s punishing policies — including tariffs and the horrific treatment of immigrants and foreigners.

Trump will next sign executive orders targeting media outlets critical of him with sanctions. Those media outlets will then find out that no big law firm will represent them because either they already made a deal with Trump or they fear he will sanction them. Trump is methodically ending democracy.

…in the middle of a "historic" year of disease outbreaks on cruises, including a devastating new strain of norovirus, which has led to 12 cruise outbreaks so far this year. The shocking cuts left health experts "baffled," since this program is paid for by cruise ship fees, NOT taxpayer dollars.

Quite wonderful find by this FT team. A Chinese small business that makes MAGA merch on.ft.com/4cAH6tE

This seems right, and all of this is WRONG.
