Almost no new jobs have been added since April and 710,000 more people are unemployed now compared to a year ago.

Meanwhile consumer prices are skyrocketing thanks to Trump's tariffs.

Does this sound like an "A+++++" economy to you?

And just like that, not one of these businesses gets my money ever again.

I mean, obviously we’re boycotting Target but the rest can suck an egg.

The US is losing blue-collar jobs for the first time since the pandemic—year-on-year job losses have hit 65k as manufacturing, transportation, & mining industries lose jobs at a rapid pace while growth in construction has nearly zeroed out . . . So much winning!

Almost no jobs have been added to the American economy since April. In fact, 710,000 more people are unemployed now versus November 2024. More thoughts on today's dismal jobs report — and what it means for America's affordability crisis.

AOC: I want to remind you where the real crime is. It's in the oligarchs taking $170 billion of our money from health care and food assistance and public programs and taking that and funneling it into a secret police program.

Listen, all I’m saying is that I’ve seen more pictures of Donald Trump partying with Jeffrey Epstein than I have of Donald Trump playing with his son Barron.

Buttigieg on Indiana: "The big part of how Trumpism works is to make you feel totally disempowered. To make him feel inevitable. And yet the clear takeaway from this is he is not unstoppable and you are not without power."

If Indiana legislators hold firm on their conscience today, it will among other things be a much-needed rejection of the idea that you can get your way on policy through bullying, intimidation, and threats.

Around 70% of the U.S. economy depends on consumer spending. As wealth concentrates in the richest 10%, the rest of America can’t afford to buy enough to keep the economy running.

This is a huge problem — and even America’s most powerful CEOs are starting to sound the alarm.

"The group rallied amid frigid conditions at the Target store on East Lake Street, alleging it allowed agents to stage raids in the parking lot.

'You cannot celebrate our communities on your commercials while letting ICE stalk them in your parking lot'...”

What I always hear: “We can’t afford to pay our workers more than $15 an hour.”

What I never hear: “We can’t afford to pay our CEO millions of dollars a year.”

Funny how that works.

Layoffs have hit over 1.1M so far this year — the most since the pandemic.

Yet corporate profits continue to hit record highs, with corporations increasingly spending those earnings on stock buybacks to enrich execs and shareholders.

This is what a rigged economy looks like.

Spotify has laid off thousands in recent years, while reportedly paying artists $0.003 per stream.

Spotify profits rose 28% in Q3. Its CEO is worth $9.8 billion. It's making money off ICE recruitment ads.

Don't you think it's time put a wrap on corporate greed and exploitation?

Not sure if Republicans will release Trump’s brain MRI to distract from the Epstein files, or announce he’s on the Epstein list to distract from how bad that MRI is.

How about we worry less, as a society, about whether individuals might be cheating to get a disability accommodation or some help buying food, and more about whether extremely wealthy people and corporations are paying their fair share of taxes?

Listen, if you tell me that “taxation is theft” I’m going to need you to quit driving on highways or walking on sidewalks or attending a public school or using police or fire services or city snow removal.

I would mention libraries, but…

The U.S. has conducted 19 strikes on alleged drug-carrying boats, killing at least 76 people.

Remember: no judge or jury has found these boats were trafficking drugs. We're simply taking Trump's word for it.

He’s unilaterally acting as judge, jury, and executioner.

This is a danger to us all.

Put another way, every crime this woman commits makes her more dangerous—not less. Every crime Pete commits makes him more dangerous—not less. So as much as we can say that these are criminals who in a healthy democracy would be incarcerated, in the world we live in they're more dangerous than ever.
