If the President doesn’t want to be called a Russian asset, perhaps he should stop acting like a Russian asset.

Tyson is closing a Nebraska plant that employs 3,200 workers in order to “right-size” its business.

The meatpacking giant paid its CEO $22.7M last year, 525x its median employee's pay.

It also spent $196M in stock buybacks to reward shareholders.

Textbook corporate greed.

“.. This is X in 2025: Potentially fake accounts crying at other potentially fake accounts that they aren’t real, all while refusing to acknowledge that they themselves aren’t who they say they are — a Russian nesting doll of bullshit.”

The EPA will approve two new pesticides containing “forever chemicals” and relax a reporting rule for companies who make products with forever chemicals.

The moves come after a $60 million lobbying blitz from the forever chemical industry.

Where is the MAHA outcry?

A federal judge didn’t “steal” the Commander-in-Chief’s powers—she ruled that DoD exceeded the limits Congress set. That is the rule of law working as designed. What threatens the Republic isn’t judicial review, but officials who insist they’re above it.

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.

To be clear, I oppose socialism in this country. But I voted no on HCR 58 as it is fundamentally dishonest.

Words matter. By falsely equating socialism with communism, this reso attacks some of our closest allies and compares them to communist tyrants like Stalin and Pol Pot.

Oregon National Guard General Alan Gronewold:

“Yes, if you give an order that directs a soldier to commit a criminal act, they should disobey that."

The only person who thinks the contrary is a 34-count convicted felon, who wouldn't pay himself for the crime committed by the soldier.

Remember: The oligarchs who control our economy and democracy seek to divide us so they can become more powerful.

They want us to turn on each other so we don't look up and see where all the wealth and power have gone.

Don't fall for it.

Public service is an honor, not an opportunity for self-enrichment at the expense of our constituents. 

My bill, the Stock Act 2.0, would ban stock trading for members of Congress, the Judiciary, and the Executive Branch. It’s time to bring accountability back to government.
