Forty years ago, 90% of media outlets were spread across 50 companies.
Now, just 5 companies control 90% of the media market.
This consolidation hurts consumers and helps oligarchs. 🧵

The Roberts Six have thoroughly politicized the Court and turned it into a reliable arm of the RNC.
Democrats should have no reservations about calling them out for it, demanding resignations from these bought-off hacks and running on a promise to enact sweeping reforms.

Democrats need to lay the groundwork for reform by attacking the villains on the Supreme Court - loudly, angrily, personally, relentlessly. And they should start now.

Democrats Need to Treat the Supreme Court Like the Villain It Is
The Court is out of control, and we'll never see reform unless we build the case for it. Starting now.

I don't understand this. Even if they believe a king would be better, why would they give *him* all these new powers? Because he's done so much good for the country with the ones he has? Because they're hoping the next Democratic President will create a utopia?
WTF are they thinking⁉️

SCOTUS is poised to give Donald J. Trump sweeping, near-dictatorial control: broad removal powers over independent agencies and unchecked authority over vast areas of the executive — undermining Congress’s role, stripping regulatory independence, and weakening democratic checks and balances.

“It’s troubling watching a political movement elevate unaccomplished heirs as historical giants. This isn’t patriotism — it’s a cult craving monarchy. Celebrating a teenager with no record or voice as a world conqueror reveals how detached from reality they’ve become.”

Correct. The Federalists have blood on their hands. Plain and simple. The Federalists and the Rethuglikkkans, Executive, Judicial, and Legislative, up and down the ballot, need to be relegated to the dustbin of history.
The Supreme Court paved the way for a felon to return to the presidency — where, behind the shield of office, that felon has ordered a string of murders.
The boat was split in half. 9 men were dead. 2 more clung to a floating piece of wreckage and tried desperately to flip it over for 41 minutes straight. There was no possible way they were going anywhere.
Then they were killed in cold blood by the U.S. military.

Let's not forget G. W. Bush also used this tactic, and he wasn't nearly as authoritarian - overtly.
When a White House claims political opponents “side with narcoterrorists,” it’s not policy—it’s authoritarian conditioning. Governments use this tactic to frame dissent as treason. Once that line is crossed, worse abuses always follow.

In plain English — “voter-roll cleanup” in MAGA-speak is a euphemism. It sounds like routine maintenance. But in the way they use it, it usually means:
Purging voters who are disproportionately young, poor, urban, or non-white — the groups least likely to vote for them.

It's almost like they are trying to scuttle the credibility of SCOTUS. Good news, Federalists...you succeeded.

This is my question…nearly every Trump appointee, including the SC darlings, have committed perjury during their hearings or additional testimony. Is perjury no longer going to be prosecuted? Should I feel free to commit perjury if ever sworn in?

Highly recommended reading for anyone who still thinks Trump won't hurt them.
He's eyeing Venezuela for its oil fields, people.
And he's taking lessons from Putin on how to maintain an unpopular war with mass casualties: at least 1,000,000 RUSSIAN military killed/wounded since the invasion.

I am told that internal Ukrainian army information shows that more than 26,000 Russian soldiers were killed or critically wounded in the month of November. Confirmed by videos. No wonder Putin wants to get Trump to give him territory for free
