you name the activity or policy, the Regime is reshaping it for profit,

The plan to end the war in Ukraine doesn’t ensure peace—it ensures profits for Trump’s inner circle.

This, too, is on us as consumers to simply not buy into -- and to demand alternatives.

Fossil fuel companies do not have a divine right to exist and be profitable at the expense of everything else.

stop shopping at the techbro and corporate monarchy companies.

Starting with Amazon and Starbucks -- and more important, tell them why you are not buying the shit they sell.
How we beat back the corporate takeover of America:

1. Break up corporate monopolies

2. Continue building union power

3. End Citizens United and get big money out of politics

Let’s keep working to unrig the system.

AI, it's awesome.

Who asked for this surveillance state?
The U.S. Border Patrol is monitoring millions of American drivers nationwide in a secretive program to identify and detain people whose travel patterns it deems suspicious.

The predictive intelligence program has resulted in people being stopped, searched and in some cases arrested.

Today, in Utah, homeowners *or renters* can simply buy a solar panel at Costco, take it home, and plug it in to a wall socket, like an appliance. It just sits there & trims about 15-20% off a residential power bill. If you move to another apt., you can take it with you.

Reuters confirms the new U.S. ‘peace plan’ for Ukraine was lifted from a Russian document, including Moscow’s demands for Ukrainian territory. Washington is now pushing a proposal that mirrors the Kremlin’s terms almost point for point.

all the conditions for the Dirty 30s are being recreated

and without another (Green) New Deal and soil conservation (and farm stabilization) acts, there's likely no way back for at least 40 years, if not longer -- climate and economic migrants will just be the start

BREAKING: new emails CONFIRM my reporting that there are TRAINING VIDEOS instructing FBI personnel on how to review the Epstein Files. Plus, a lot more…
The emails reveal the special training given to FBI personnel working on what it called the “Epstein Transparency Project.” In some instances they referred to it as the “Special Redaction Project.” The training entailed PowerPoint slide presentations and video instruction on how to review the files.

You have to ask, why was Witkoff chosen for this critically important role of special envoy to Putin? He had no diplomatic or foreign policy experience. No education on those subjects. So of all people, why him? I think what we all surmised is clear - Putin wanted Witkoff.

I feel dirty platforming Tucker Carlson even indirectly, but he's got a point: where's the investigation into the Trump assassination attempt (kind of like the Epstein and Kirk deaths)?
