Walmart and McDonald’s are among the top employers of workers who rely on food stamps.

McDonald's CEO raked in $18.2M last year — over 1,000x the company's median employee pay.

Walmart's CEO pocketed $27.4M — 930x the company's median employee pay.

See the problem?

A note of hope: after the McCarthy scare era, with the Blacklist, and some of the same tactics we are living through today, came 40 years of incredible progress.

It is always darkest before the dawn. Keep hope.

Top lawyers walked out of Paul Weiss to start their own firm—right after the firm cut a shady deal with the White House to dodge an executive order that would’ve limited its business.

Some folks still have a spine.

This is the weaponization of government—full stop.

If you speak out against them—or in this case do your job—they will come for you.

What we’re seeing with @replamonica.bsky.social is a political stunt, and we won’t stand for it.

Phang: And you’ve got to appreciate that the congresswoman was able to say, “Look, this ain’t Fox News, buddy. This is Congress.” So if you’re going to be here and you’re going to try to make an allegation somewhere publicly, you better be able to back it up.
