Some personal news:

- MASTER PLAN is now #1 in its category despite no big publisher, no giant PR machine & us self-publishing the book under our own label.

- The Lever's subscribership has increased 25% in 90 days.

We built our entire reader-supported news outlet from scratch. This is amazing.

"Maria" is rolling up raisins under the hot Madera sun. To earn $70, she has to roll 1,000 sheets! Each row has around 250 sheet. It's hard grueling work walking on the burning sand for hours rolling one sheet after another. #WeFeedYou

Quick reminder: Billionaires who made their money fleecing people and amassing disproportionate political power typically fund organizations that studiously avoid suggesting that billionaires should be prevented from fleecing people and amassing disproportionate political power.

Democracies do not use their military to try and intimidate their own citizens with “shows of presence”.

This is fascism.
Military documents confirm that the LA operation today was a “show of presence” intended to send a message to LA residents about the power of the federal government.

After staging with armed soldiers and Border Patrol agents on horse, they packed up and left after a short walk.

Nothing says #July4 like a big juicy slice of watermelon. This yummy fruit doesn't just appear on our picnic table. It takes a lot of work. An average watermelon weighs 20 pounds. Can you imagine harvesting them in a 98° Bakersfield area field like these workers?

I got permission to share this, and I'm extremely grateful for that.

The Onion got this letter from one of our subscribers in Alaska. She works with dementia patients and decided to leave a copy in the car for each one.

This email made my year. Read it and you'll see what I mean. People are good.

Affectionate nicknames are commonly used in all work teams. This bucket belongs to an onion harvesting worker who is paid a piece rate per bucket to harvest the onions you’ll slice for your #July4 BBQ. #WeFeedYou

Trump’s 1st term happened because Obama lied about what he’d try to do, then sold out to Wall St & then put thumb on scale for Clinton.

Trump’s 2nd term happened because Biden & Dems lied about his cognition, then put thumb on scale for Harris.

All involved got rich & will face no consequences.

The wages of the richest 1% have skyrocketed 182% since 1979. 

Meanwhile, the wages of the bottom 90% have seen just 44% growth. 

Trickle down economics was always a hoax.

A reminder that this entire Trans Panic thing is just another shitty step in a long history of fake panics completely invented by political hacks.

Trans people are very likely not affecting your lives at all and they certainly are not the cause of any problems on a national level. It's BULLSHIT.
