When my Hold All These Motherfuckers Accountable party is assembling its national agenda, piratic old monopoly utilities are high on the list of targets.
In one of the poorest states in the nation, people have no choice but to buy electricity from a monopoly utility that rakes in record profits from residential bills that are among the highest in the nation. Great article on how Alabama Power and its captured regulator got where they are today.

Voters want a Democratic Party that fights back against the forces that have rigged the system and made their lives more difficult.
A party that comforts the afflicted and afflicts the comfortable —not a party that buckles and capitulates.
When will party leadership learn this lesson?

Walmart, McDonalds and Amazon are the largest employers of people who require SNAP assistance.
The CEOs earned between 18-40 million last year, 1000x their median employee income.
They took billions in profits, while their workers relied on SNAP to survive.

Fix that.

Madagascar and Nepal just ousted their heads of state after weeks of Gen Z protests. Morocco has also been rocked by protests. I firmly believe in dialogue and debate, but direct action has power too. America taught the world to do it, and the world has learned well.

Reminder that @governor.ca.gov is reportedly considering vetoing SB79, the best housing bill to clear the CA legislature in decades.
It would be a *disaster*, substantively & for Newsom's political future. Really hope he doesn't self-immolate.

This is due to a law signed by Ronald Reagan and has nothing to do with this shutdown fight.
But consider this...
Emergency Medicaid spending in 2023 cost $3.8 billion — just 0.4% of total Medicaid spending.
Now what about the $20 billion taxpayers are giving to Argentina?

Well, there it is. Sinclair is digging in for a fight, so please help push back -- find stations in your area, watch their local news to see what ads they run, then write those advertisers to tell them you're boycotting as long as they're on a Sinclair station.

A worker making $50,000 a year contributes to Social Security on 100% of their income.
A CEO making $20 million a year contributes to Social Security on less than 1% of their income.
Instead of raising the retirement age, we should scrap the Social Security tax cap.

BREAKING: Trump's head of Social Security says raising the retirement age "will be considered."
That's a betrayal of Trump's campaign promise to protect Social Security.

What I love most about the insincere religiosity of the right these days is how they keep making it crystal clear they don't actually read the Bible.
There were twelve *apostles* and, even then, there was one (Matthias) who replaced Judas and was known as the 13th apostle.
Otherwise, great work.
