Five corporations control 90% of the US media market.

Airlines merged from 12 major carriers in 1980 to 4 today.

Four giants control 80% of meat processing.

A handful of companies control the pharmaceutical industry.

The evidence of corporate concentration is everywhere.

"trans rights just aren't a winning issue" -Dems after 2024 👀
Trans rights are human rights, and human rights are always a winning issue in my book. 2025 agrees 😊
Too many news outlets & pols framing Tuesday as affordability *Instead Of* "woke"/"DEI"/whatever the fuck when Mamdani & Sherrill both *explicitly* embraced trans & other LGBTQ+ rights, VA solidly rejected Republicans' virulent anti-trans attack adz, & a PA elected their 1st trans mayor.

While I greatly appreciate the thinking about women’s reproductive health, I’m so tired of white folx completely missing the truth of race, particularly when it comes to Black lives.

There is a difference and it is important to identify and grapple with that rather than ignore it. This is erasure.

1.) more expensive groceries
2.) fight (hard) to not fund food stamps
3.) Stop tracking hunger

Unreal how anyone in this country could see this administration as anything but evil.

Groceries saw their biggest jump in nearly three years last month, a worrisome sign for inflation-weary shoppers. Tariffs are contributing to higher prices for imported staples like bananas and coffee.
Grocery prices have jumped up, and there's no relief in sight

And so, Happy Indigenous Peoples Day!
You don't have to judge Columbus by the standards of today. His tenure as governor of Hispaniola was so horrific that he was dragged back to Spain in chains to answer for his many crimes.

Plus he never set foot on any land that would ever be a part of the United States of America.

@illinoisdems.bsky.social who's running against Bost? Actively preventing troops from being paid should be political suicide, but he knows it won't matter.
I know it's deep red down here but we shouldn't let him get away with things like this without a fight.

Is this the new Red Scare?

McCarthy didn't actually prove anyone was a communist, but people lost their jobs and garnered public condemnation. What would that look like today? I don't think it takes too much imagination. It ain't pretty.

800 detainees are missing after being held in Alligator Alcatraz in July, showing no record of their location in ICE’s database.

Other detainees have been mistakenly deported or sent to detention centers thousands of miles away.

The cruelty is the point.

As a hiring manager I can track progress on an open requisition as it moves through HR. Let your applicants have that same courtesy 🥴
