Zoran Mamdani proved that in elections, it isn't always money that talks but enthusiasm and organizing. Nelson Rockefeller couldn't buy the presidency and Michael Huntington couldn't buy the CA governorship.

Medicare for All will bankrupt this country if Medicare is not transformed beforehand. Unnecessary very expensive tests, outright fraud perpetuated by doctors and middlemen, unconscionably expensive drugs (insulin was given away by its inventor) will not be sustainable if everybody is eligible.

In Monrovia, California, protesters are purchasing 17¢ ICE scrapers from Home Depot and immediately returning them to create long lines and slow down the entire store. Their aim is to disrupt sales and convey a message opposing ICE raids occurring in their neighborhood.

We need universal basic income. It will function as a cushion for people so that losing a job or not being able to find one doesn't mean zero income, and having basic income will also better enable finding or even creating a new job.
Also, AI is trained on all our work. We should all get our share.

It’s not enough to say you’re going to build 3 million new housing units when in some places where there’s a shortage, it takes a year to get a permit to make a change to an existing property. In San Francisco, it took 20 years to finally break ground on an empty parking lot downtown.

Like most of you, my first reaction to the action of the 8 senators that voted to end the shutdown was very negative. And then, I heard Lawrence O'Donnell's well-informed take and I changed my mind. Please WATCH THIS:

The person being interviewed is Scott Ellis, board member of www.fundforhumanit.org which just published a study in collaboration with the National Science Foundation that predicts AI will eliminate 25% of American jobs within 3 years. One more reason why we have to implement UBI now.

They can indict people left and right because grand juries usually go along with the prosecutors but even in this case, the grand jury refused to charge him with a felony and took it down to a misdemeanor. And then, the juries of 12 people only one of whom has to disagree, will say "NOT GUILTY."
