Robert Reich Bezos and Musk Vs. Workers | Robert Reich

The far-right 5th Circuit Court of Appeals just sided with SpaceX's claim that the National Labor Relations Board is unconstitutional.

The richest man in the world is one step closer to getting what he's always dreamed of: the destruction of unions once and for all.

Trump said repeatedly he would "end the war in 24 hours." It's been 207 days. No deal.

Just your regular reminder that the Boston Tea Party, which kicked off the American Revolution, was a protest against tariffs…

Yes, ma'am.

The first time Charlie Chaplin used his voice in a film, he wielded it to forcefully condemn the rising forces of fascism around the globe.

Will we listen to his words today?

Exclusive: Hundreds at Alligator Alcatraz have no criminal charges, Miami Herald learns Descriptions of the Everglades detention center as a place for violent criminals tell only part of the story.

250 people detained in the Florida Everglades have no criminal convictions or pending charges.

ICE just got a 265% detention funding boost.

Palantir software is being used to create the federal government’s first national citizenship data bank.

The Trump regime is attacking naturalized citizens and birthright citizenship.

Be warned — Trump’s police state is here.

Medicaid covers...

-40% of births nationwide
-50% of kids with special needs
-72 million people in total

Remember this as Republicans gut the program to finance tax cuts that will overwhelmingly go to the richest 1% of Americans.

Starlink turbocharges lethal jihadist group in Africa In the Sahel region of West Africa, an ascendant jihadist group is using Starlink, SpaceX's high-speed satellite internet service, to increase its operational capabilities, recruiting, and fundraising...

1. Starlink is turbocharging the operations of a lethal jihadist group operating in West Africa, JNIM

Elon Musk has the capability to limit or prevent the use of Starlink by groups like JNIM but has chosen not to, instead prioritizing growth

As a 52-year-old, I grew up with domestic right wing terrorist organizations threatening violence daily, and blowing up buildings and killing people periodically, throughout my whole political life: it was the anti-abortion movement.

Every machine in a Hospital that diagnoses your body without cutting you open is based on a principle of Physics, discovered by a Physicist who had no interest in Medicine.

If you think the world doesn’t need Basic Science, or that somehow Science has failed you, think again.

Trump's idiot followers (ie every Republican Senator) want to sell off FORTY PERCENT of public land? That is 40% of OUR land.

For Trump, a military conflict with Iran would distract from: 

-Sinking poll numbers
-A devastating (and unpopular) budget bill
-Harmful trade wars 
-Unleashing the military on American soil
-Millions of people protesting his authoritarianism

We must remain on high alert.

What we are seeing in Los Angeles right now with #NoKings is after several hours of a massive protest that was 100%, law enforcement—abruptly and without provocation—began firing tear gas, flash bangs and pepper balls at protesters.

It was broadcast live on air. “Unrest” is on them.

Trump Says His Dud of a Parade was all JD Vance’s Idea

Today in Boston.

Even the drone couldn't get it all.

The attendees at Trump’s parade did an amazing job of social distancing

The Trumpists talk a lot about representing “real America.” How much of a bizarre propagandistic lie this is was on full display yesterday - when a vast, heterogeneous coalition of people mobilized in protest while all the regime offered was an embarrassing, lame, sad excuse of a military parade.

Best image of the day:

No notes.

Sen Chris Murphy is out here doing the hard work—town halls, tough questions, real talk.
Trump wasn’t serious about lowering your costs.
He was serious about becoming a dictator. Murphy’s telling the truth.
It’s time we all listen & fight like hell to save democracy💪🏼✊🏾👊

Note to media: For heaven’s sake, fact check Trump’s team Week after week, Trump administration officials repeat the same bad information on Sunday morning talk shows. It doesn't have to be this way.

ABC let Trump’s border czar lie on air. Again. As Josh Levs explains, “When networks know guests will lie—and air them anyway—that’s a failure.”
