After spending a lifetime teaching, I know my proudest legacy is the students who will rebuild this country — making it better, more just, and more equal.

My colleagues at @imcivicaction.bsky.social‬ have announced that tickets are on sale for their film about my last semester teaching.

The oil industry buys off Congress. No action on climate.

The NRA buys off Congress. No action on guns.

Insurance companies buy off Congress. No action on health care.

The list goes on and on.

Money in politics is the root of our dysfunction.

My friends, what the Trump regime has unleashed on America is intolerable. It is time — beyond time — for a national civic uprising. We must take action. https://robertreich.substack.com/p/a-bigger-threat-to-free-speech-than

What’s to stop the Trump regime from arresting American citizens who support any cause the regime doesn’t like?

Where, may I ask, are the “First Amendment absolutists” these days?

Where are all the Republicans who for years have accused liberals of “cancelling” their views?

If I were a billionaire, I'd use my wealth (and my fame) to help people less fortunate than me.

I certainly wouldn't be using it to demonize the less fortunate, and troll and crush them with the social media company I bought.

That's why people hate that fucker.

The institutional Democratic Party is guided by an almost pathological level of conflict avoidance in almost every direction. “What can we do to make the least number of people mad?” is just a bankrupt way to operate.

Republicans cut Democrats entirely out of their process for the CR, didn't want any of our input, and would have been blamed by a majority of the American public for a government shutdown.

There was no reason to cave to them.

Chuck Schumer has to go.

Trump's disgraceful attack on Zelenskyy.

Musk's Cabinet meeting takeover.

Republicans' reverse Robin Hood budget.

A lot happened this week. We get into all of it on today's Coffee Klatch.

DOGE recommended firing workers at:

-FDA, which oversees Neuralink

-FAA, which oversees SpaceX

-USAID, which probed Starlink

-CFPB, which oversees Tesla's financing arm and a potential payment platform on X.

"Conflict of interest" is a severe understatement.

After Trump embraced crypto, Coinbase gave millions to PACs backing pro-Trump candidates.

After Trump's win, they gave $1M to his inaugural and listed his meme coin.

Now, Trump's SEC has dropped a major lawsuit against Coinbase.

See how this works?

Hey, artists, in case you were wondering if your work matters: I'm a scientist working on climate change and biodiversity, and I would not be who I am today without The Lorax, The Secret of NIMH, Watership Down, The Last Unicorn, and The X-Files. I know I'm not alone. Thank you for all you do.

The GOP passed a budget resolution last night that will gut Medicaid, SNAP, and other vital programs — as 60% of Americans live paycheck to paycheck.

Why? To finance tax cuts for the top 1%.

We have socialism in this country for the rich, harsh capitalism for everyone else.

When I saw the disgusting "trump Gaza" video this morning, the bile rose to my throat.

I won't share it. Instead, help me promote this counter narrative by Tala, from Gaza.

"Gaza is not yours to take. Gaza is ours, and we are still here. This is our land."

BRAVO to her strength and DEFIANCE. 🥹💪
