If you’re looking for something to do, start working on overturning citizens united in your state. States control the power corporations have. Take their political power away with a ballot initiative. Here’s how: open.substack.com/pub/robertre...
How to Get Rid of "Citizens United"
We can do away with it without a new Supreme Court. Nor do we need a constitutional amendment. There’s a far simpler way.

May seem mad to a lot of people but if we keep voting for the lesser evil in perpetuity, evil still wins and things will only keep getting worse.

This is not just a current political issue. Charging & punishing these particular perpetrators is vital to keeping the fight against the ongoing abuse & killing of women & children by men in the spotlight. "Me Too" was only a start.

This is how our government has been corrupted:

1) Donors give huge sums to elect politicians to office
2) Elected officials rewrite rules in the donors' favor
3) Donors make huge profit
4) Repeat

We must get big money out of politics.

It is the root of our dysfunction.

Some of us weren’t “high-functioning.”
We were high-masking.
And no one saw the difference until we collapsed.

The 400 richest Americans are now worth a record $6.6 trillion.

The entire bottom 50% of America is worth just $4.2 trillion.

Read that back.

When 400 people control more wealth than half a country’s population, we have a very serious problem.

Sometimes we need a moment, but if you tune out completely, they win. Fascism doesn’t need your support, just your silence.

I feel like a broken record, but I have to keep saying it over and over again: a farmer bailout won’t do much of anything because the market is gone. There will be no incentive to plant next year.

The bailout will help payoff farmer debt to the banks. That’s all.

Pritzker: "In any other country, if federal agents fired upon journalists & protesters when unprovoked what would we call it? If officials marched down streets harassing civilians & demanding their papers, what would we say? I don't think we'd have trouble calling it what it is: authoritarianism"

The hardest part of inertia isn’t the undone task.

It’s the shame story that wraps itself around the stuckness.

That old voice whispering: you’re lazy, you’re failing, you should be able to.

Sometimes the work isn’t finishing the thing.

It’s staying with ourselves when we can’t.

It doesn't matter if they are ever coming for you.

It was always ever already too much that they were coming for anyone.

Something just hit me. Trump’s tactics might have just awakened a sleeping giant.

All day, I’ve been seeing clips of children of immigrants newly activated: speaking up and pushing back harder than their parents ever could.

Future voters.

Today they have crossed a deep red line.

We, the people, must hold the president and his appointees accountable for this outrageous abuse against American liberty.

The disparity btwn what’s actually happening in Los Angeles and the way it’s being mischaracterized is one of the biggest stress tests of modern media in recent memory. Botted socials, AI, old clips, declining literacy—it’s like seeing a broken emergency response system hit by a storm.

NEW: Farmers are dying by suicide at the third-highest rate by vocation in Utah.

But after a federal program offering mental health support ran out of money, the state did not continue it.
