6 people have died from a nationwide listeria outbreak.

31 babies have been hospitalized with botulism from contaminated baby formula.

Instead of firing crucial FDA employees & attacking the agency, Trump should be hiring more experts to crack down on these dangerous outbreaks.

Tyson is one of just a few companies that controls the entire meat market.

Just last month, it paid $85M to settle charges it illegally conspired with other meatpackers to raise pork prices.

Corporate monopolies are great for executives and a raw deal for everyone else.
Tyson CEO Donnie King made $22.7 million last year.

The week before Thanksgiving, he told 3,200 workers in Lexington, Nebraska that they're losing their jobs.

We can do away with it without a new Supreme Court. Nor do we need a constitutional amendment. There’s a far simpler way to get rid of Citizens United. Let me explain. https://robertreich.substack.com/p/how-to-get-rid-of-citizens-united

I ran into an advocate who told me that the 9 men detained from Canal Street last month struggled to find legal representation. Historically, Black immigrants experience disproportionately *more* removals than any other group. Anti-Black racism fuels US immigration in *every* way.

"The first mistake was for 77M voters to re-elect a man as dangerously unfit…as Trump, one who was immunized and unleashed by John Roberts’ SCOTUS. But the second and related mistake was for a GOP Senate to confirm a dangerous collection of incompetents"

1/Because Judge Currie says the govt can’t keep appointing acting US Attys after an initial 120 day appt, it’s now up to the local district judges to name an acting us atty. They’re likely to name someone who will stand for the rule of law & not reindict bad cases. But…
And now, the case against Letitia James is dismissed too, same rationale but minus the statute of limitations complication.

MAGA dimwit Pete Hegseth thinks he's pleasing the Audience of One by "fighting back" but all he's doing is drawing more attention to the question of whether Trump is issuing illegal orders, which was the whole point of the Dem video in the first place.

The Trump administration is abusing the military justice system to target its political opponents. A despicable new low for a group that strives everyday to find the moral bottom.
