Rob Reiner and his work will be forever remembered for how he/it shaped America for the betterment of all.

This is exactly what the guy in the Oval Office so desperately craves…but will never have.

Pepsi allegedly gave Walmart discounts on its products, while charging other retailers higher prices.

Biden's FTC filed a complaint. Trump's FTC later dropped it.

This is a prime example of how monopoly-like power takes away our freedom of choice. Lina Khan explains.

The chemical industry has launched a multi-million dollar lobbying blitz to influence Trump, including on regulations related to "forever chemicals."

Trump's EPA has also recently added chemical lobbyists to regulatory positions.

Increase in productivity since 1979: 87%

Increase in hourly pay since 1979: 32%

Just so happens that ~25% of workers were unionized in 1979. Today? 10%.

As unions declined, the super-rich have taken a larger share of wealth generated by labor. We must build back union power.

A huge outbreak of Measles in South Carolina continues to accelerate and has resulted in hundreds of mostly unvaccinated people being placed in quarantine.

And thanks to fascist republicans, a deranged anti-vax chaos agent like RFK Jr was given the power to destroy US Health.

A quick sidenote about this; one reason I stay on X is specifically because of exchanges like this, where @davidjbier.bsky.social and I got a prominent government official to make a claim so outrageous that it’s now ricocheting around the internet and actively undermining official PR campaigns.
Bovino, the man overseeing mass deportations, publicly declared that we must all have our papers on us, at all times, or we could be stopped, harassed, kidnapped, and detained, as they did with the man in this case, who is a US citizen.

Disney has hiked prices and laid off hundreds of workers this year.

Yet Disney paid its CEO $41B in 2024. It just reported a 36% increase in net profits for parks and streaming. And it plans to double stock buybacks next year.

Remember this as Disney turns to AI.

Today the Republicans in Congress voted to allow health insurance premiums to spike, making it unaffordable for millions of Americans.

This does NOT take into account the $1T(yes, that is a T) in Medicaid cuts that won't go into effect until after the midterms.
