My plans for Thanksgiving weekend are clear, I'm not shopping at Target, HomeDepot or Amazon 🚫🚫🚫. I'm so over corporations that back the admins policies, cave to anti-DEI pressure, let ICE terrorize our communities, and chase tax breaks while people go hungry. #WeAintBuyingIt!

If you don’t know Lina Khan, now is a great time to know about her. She’s now on Zohran Mamdani’s transition team. She’s also the former FTC Chair, only 36, & committed to leveling the playing field for everyday Americans. She is an absolute star. This is what hope feels like.

The path to protecting democracy runs through empowered voters and a movement that refuses to back down. We need leaders who will meet the moment, and we’ll be there on the ground and at the polls when they do.

The makers of Tylenol have to weigh the pros and cons. On the one hand, Trump is telling people not to take their product. On the other, he's single-handedly spiking nationwide demand for headache relief.

@leahgreenberg.bsky.social hots the proverbial nail on the head.
This is state-sponsored media shit. Absolutely, shocking, insane dictator overreach

Empowered by the Supreme Court, tech titans appear poised to deploy their vast wealth to try to buy a government that will impose no guardrails on their already powerful industry. What could go wrong?

Globally, roughly a third more power is being generated from the sun this spring than last. If this exponential rate of growth can continue, we will soon live in a very different world, @billmckibben.bsky.social‬ writes.

No Kings Protest @ the waterfront in Portland, OR today. People as far as you could see - united, patriotic, joyful, celebrating community - all there to stand as one to resist, refuse, revolt against this cruel and fascist administration. This is what democracy looks like!

Undocumented immigrants paid an effective federal income tax rate of 5.27% in 2022.

That means they paid a higher effective tax rate than 5 of the richest Americans…and a higher effective tax rate than 55 mega corporations.

So let me ask you: who are the real freeloaders?
