Focused on the crises of oligarchy, fascism, climate change, COVID-19, A.I. & related issues.

REMEMBER:

You cannot shop your way out of capitalism.

You cannot vote your way out of fascism.

Direct action is required.

There is no war but the class war.

A little bit of excitement from last night. The northern lights very rarely ever make it down into central California. Had to go out and see what I could capture.

The 400 richest Americans are now worth a record $6.6 trillion, after getting $1.2 trillion richer over the past year alone.

Meanwhile, the rest of the country is getting squeezed by tariffs and high prices for groceries, utilities, and health care.

The system is broken.

What many don't realize, is that Ukrainian strikes from last 2 years on russian refineries are always aiming at specific part of refinery.

Cracking Units.

This basically stops Russia from ability to refine crude into useful fuels.

This is why Russian issue of lack of fuels is snowballing.

We can't settle for Republicans’ promise of later negotiations. Because every time this Administration says something, they go back on their word.

If Republicans need Democratic votes, they need to keep health care premiums from skyrocketing for the American people.

BREAKING: Our client Mario Guevara, an Emmy-winning journalist detained by ICE in retaliation for livestreaming law enforcement activity, will be deported tomorrow to El Salvador.

Mario and his family are being punished for his reporting. This cruelty is meant to stifle our free press.

ICE is running around Chicago harassing people for not being white.

Just a year ago, that was illegal in the United States and now it’s commonplace.

That’s not making America great again.

If this country was truly “pro-life,” we would have Medicare for All, a Green New Deal, gun reform, universal child care, and a living wage.

The right-wing agenda isn’t about “life.”

It’s about control.

I'm hearing multiple reports that veterans are being denied the Covid vaccine at the VA. A friend who is a provider at the VA confirmed they aren't allowed to give vets the vaccine.

Does anyone have any more info on this? RFK Jr's vaccine denialism is going to kill our vets.
