The fiduciary duty of corporate officers to their share holders (aka their legal responsibility to make as much money as possible) makes it corporate policy to bow to fascists when they gain power and use that power to threaten corporate profits. We see this with Disney’s decision to pull Kimmel.

Trump’s America:
Economy crashing
Contagious disease on the rise
Racism run rampant
Secret police in the streets

I am grieving the barbarism that is going to unfurl from all this. People are going to die. Livelihoods gone. All to feed a corrupt kleptocracy.
I see every day up close how different it is from the first time around. There are no guardrails. A disaster. I’m sorry we have to live through this.

Trump said again he’s open to sending U.S. citizens to a Salvadoran prison. There is no constitutional basis for this—such an act would be a direct violation of the Constitution.

After we published a public audit on Saturday, Elon Musk’s DOGE deleted hundreds more claims from its mistake-plagued “wall of receipts,” wiping out an additional $4 billion in so-called savings that the group had claimed to secure for U.S. taxpayers.
