Gavin Newsom is wrong, we need to tax the rich.
There are now 2,900 billionaires, and they hold $15.8 trillion.
The wealth of the bottom 50% of the global population, over 4 billion people, is estimated at $3.7 trillion.
The Democratic Party must stand for something.

Bakersfield California was being secretly raided by Ice.
Boston, Chicago, New York, and Wshington cities are major targets.

What a load of nonsense from yet another corrupt mouthpiece of a corrupt institution.
United CEO Andrew Witty gave an address to the company today (leaked to me), telling employees "we guard against...unnecessary care" and that "There are very few people in the history of the U. S. healthcare industry who had a bigger positive effect on American healthcare than Brian [Thompson]."

Woke up early, on the right side of bed, with pep in my step… I wonder why… could it be because a sociopathic CEO monster was put down, and the communal response from ALL the people is - We Want More! Eat The Rich! …funny how they say we are divided, yet we are all in unison on this. Rallying Cry..

I know there are a lot of self-described moderate Democrats over here on BlueSky, many who may not agree with me on a lot.
I’d like to put the idea out there that we all should be able to agree that corporate money has no place in the Democratic Party.
Can we agree on that? Genuine question.

It is truly madness what corporate concentration had brought us to… this is just so inefficient. But I think that is the point… Late stage capitalism makes no sense for regular people; as long as it is milking your time, attention and wallet, it is doing its job…
Oh look! It’s a gallery of things I must now order online because it takes 20 minutes to find the Keeper of the Deodorant Key
I get the need to safeguard from shoplifting but this CVS setup is insane.

This is entirely true. A lot of the high value posters have moved here, people who intelligently discuss important topics, report on news that major media outlets are often so slow on, and whats more... the trolls, hate comments, and slurs are a tiny fraction of what they are on Elon's twitter.
Others have noted it but I will too: The big reason Bluesky is so hot right now is that the people who add value to social media - the frequent posters in specific fields - are here now, talking to each other and creating the "spectator value" that draws users and attention.
Twitter’s heir apparent isn’t X or Threads — it’s Bluesky

Since the merger SAG-AFTRA has been increasingly shady about this. They essentially lied to us during the commercial contracts vote and only told us AFTER ratification we no longer get residuals in commercials. The distrust being sowed right now with the union is a huge misstep.
