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.

Let's hang Farage's "ICE-style enforcement" around his neck like a concrete albatross. Let's show people what that looks like. A majority does not want this.
Is this the "ICE style deportation enforcement" that Farage has in mind? Does this seem like a happier, safer place to you? Machine-gun armed militias, with faces covered, yanking people into unmarked cars?

Might I encourage you to listen to Parts I & II of Aesop, before the final part is out next week? And maybe to recommend it to someone who you think might enjoy it?

He is the most political topic I have tackled, and the most accessible, so a perfect introduction to this podcast.
📜 New AESOP I - Virtue Signaller or Fake News Merchant? 🏛️

Part One of Three: Stories have had a moral for as long as we've had stories. So why is Aesop, enduringly, one of the few moralists we accept can dish it out?

First disabled adults, now children with SEND…. Great article by @johnharris1969.bsky.social 👏

“Labour needs to stop sowing fear and dread among people whose lives are already full of those things”.

I’m done with #Labour

After disability benefits, is Labour really about to target the educational rights of special needs children? | John Harris
Noise has been building about restricting help for kids who badly need it. As a special needs parent, I can tell you: it’s terrifying, says Guardian columnist John Harris

Today the order banning #PalestineAction as "terrorists" came into effect. But they are not terrorists. They are protesters trying to stop a genocide. This is a "first they came for ..." situation. Unless we stand in solidarity against this assault on our freedom, they will pick us off one by one.

No “President” has a right to strip citizenship and deport people who challenge his policies. That’s fascism, not America.

The top word is English followed by how it is written in the Cherokee language followed by how it is spelled in English then how to pronounce it phonetically.

The American people were lied to about Vietnam, with tragic consequences.

The American people are being lied to again today. We cannot allow history to repeat itself.

The New York Times covers trans issues the way Fox News covers ICE protests.

Both lead the country to believe there is a conflagration by highlighting a few fires over and over, while ignoring the fact that most people just want to live their lives without the government in their faces.
