Cancer drug Revlimid is one of the bestselling pharmaceutical products of all time, with total sales of over $100 billion.

It’s also extraordinarily expensive, costing nearly $1,000 for each pill, even though that pill costs just 25 cents to make.

The Price of Remission: This Cancer Drug Saves Lives — but Costs a Fortune. I Wanted to Know Why.
When I was diagnosed with cancer, I set out to understand why a single pill of Revlimid cost the same as a new iPhone. I’ve covered high drug prices as a reporter for years. What I discovered shocked ...

Mamdani is effectively helping Trump rehabilitate himself as a populist and champion of affordability exactly when his polls are at their lowest precisely because of those very issues. This is perhaps the most opportunistic act by a single politician I've seen in my lifetime.

Anyone interested in a resolution condemning fascism?

Anyone?

Maybe?

No?

Okay.
The House of Representatives voted 285–98 in favor of a resolution condemning socialism.

86 Dems joined Republicans in supporting the measure, incl. House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries.

Disagreement on policy is welcome and reasonable, but calling me a Nazi for cosponsoring an ordinance to ban price-fixing is completely unacceptable. Councilor Ryan edited his post, but did not disclose the edit and explain the nature of the substantive change, so it’s here for posterity.

DSA stands in absolute opposition to the proposed deal to pass Trump's billionaire budget. Healthcare is a right, not a bargaining chip.

not surprising: the democrats are going to cave on the government shutdown and your healthcare costs are going to skyrocket. make no mistake, this is a conscious decision by the party to punish you for mamdani and to remind you of your place

right on the heels of overwhelming victories giving them a clear mandate to continue fighting, party leadership caves asking eight members who are not up for reelection this cycle to take the fall and vote yes. it's not just that the democratic party isn't our "friend" — it's much worse than that

there could literally not be a better time in history for us on the left to reach out to progressive liberals and show them that there is an alternative—that the democratic party is their enemy and is just as subservient to capital as republicans are

In the middle of manufacturing outrage over Omar Fateh and Zohran Mamdani, even Fox News couldn’t help but recognize the rent is too high. We must elect Omar Fateh, and enact a policy that ensures landlords can’t price gouge their tenants and force them out of their communities.

The attempts by Western institutions to normalise Israel since the ceasefire are disgusting and absurd.

First, Israel has not stopped killing Palestinians, and by all accounts is eager to do more of it.

I interviewed @jeffschuhrke.bsky.social about his fantastic new book - out today from @haymarketbooks.org - on the US labor movement, Zionism, and the struggle for Palestine. It's really a must-read for anyone who cares about labor organizing and Palestine solidarity.

For @truthout.org.
The Future of Palestine Solidarity in US Labor Will Come From the Rank and File
Palestine has always been a labor issue — but until recently, many top US union leaders have been on the wrong side.
