Turns out allowing pesticide companies to put PFAS and forever chemicals on our food is a really, really bad idea.

Increase in productivity since 1979: 87%

Increase in hourly pay since 1979: 32%

Just so happens that ~25% of workers were unionized in 1979. Today? 10%.

As unions declined, the super-rich have taken a larger share of wealth generated by labor. We must build back union power.

California Democrats really said “what if we made the governor’s race a group project” — and now two Republicans could slide into the top two while the Dems cannibalize each other. Incredible work, everyone.

You know things are bad when Trump changes his trademark “Two weeks” to “6 months to a year.”

The Arc de Triomphe was commissioned to honor Napoleon in 1806. By the time construction had really begun in earnest, Napoleon had suffered a disastrous military defeat and had been forced into exile.
Trump: We’re building an arc like the Arc de Triomphe. It will be like the one in Paris but it blows it away.

Measles didn’t make a comeback on its own.

This is RFK Jr’s anti-vax movement and his disinformation campaign. And equally as disturbing, some people are perfectly fine with this outcome.

Trump says we need to go after drug cartels.

Meanwhile, he disbanded a DOJ task force that took them on.

And he pardoned a former Honduran president convicted of drug trafficking.

Trump doesn't care about drugs — he wants to be able to declare war on anyone he labels an enemy.

It's a power grab.

According to the US Coast Guard, the year prior to Trump changing our policy to summary execution, only 21% of the vessels interdicted by them off the coast of Venezuela suspected of trafficking drugs had drugs on board. The other 79% had nothing. But now we just kill them all.

What load of crap JD is spreading. Investment companies bought up millions of housing units after the 2008 junk mortgage crash & rent them for usurious rents.

Mob boss Trump is not exempt from the rules.

The Senate confirmation process exists to protect us from exactly this kind of corrupt and politicized appointment.

Our state deserves a U.S. Attorney that works for the safety of our citizens, not the President’s interests.

Three babies in Kentucky have died of whooping cough.

They weren’t vaccinated and neither were their mothers.

This is RFK Jr’s legacy. A trail of dead kids who never had a chance.

They didn’t get to decide about vaccination. Adults chose for them & they paid with their life.

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.
