The IRS's free tax filing tool is now reportedly "gone," according to Trump's IRS chief.

This comes after Intuit, the maker of TurboTax, lobbied the government for years to block IRS free file.

Intuit donated $1 million to Trump’s inauguration.

See how this works?

EPA moves to end climate regulation under Clean Air Act The agency proposal would rescind the landmark “endangerment finding,” which states that greenhouse gases are a threat to public health.

This was announced as 150 million people across the country were under heat alerts.

Fossil fuel interests spent nearly $100 million on Trump's re-election. Then the industry pumped $19 million into his inaugural fund.

They're cashing in at the expense of the rest of us.

Trump is gutting the police that stop corporations from looting — the EPA, IRS, SEC, Labor Department, Federal Trade Commission, Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, Consumer Product Safety Commission, FDA, and Equal Employment Opportunity Commission.

Be warned.

America needs its Eduardo Porters, Stephen Colberts, and all others in the media and in academia who have helped the nation understand just how truly dangerous Trump is.

Shame on any media outlet or university that allows Trump to silence it. https://robertreich.substack.com/p/the-silencing

Immigration agents told a teenage US citizen: ‘You’ve got no rights.’ He secretly recorded his brutal arrest Video from Kenny Laynez-Ambrosio, 18, puts fresh scrutiny on the harsh tactics used to reach the Trump administration’s ambitious enforcement targets

-A living wage
-Guaranteed healthcare
-The right to join a union
-The right to vote
-The right to choose when, how, and with whom you start a family
-The right for you and your family to live free from gun violence

These are the foundations of real freedom.

The fundamental choice has not been as stark since World War II: democracy and freedom, or dictatorship and tyranny.

Trump and his sycophants are siding with the latter. The rest of us must loudly, proudly, and boldly proclaim our allegiance to the former.

"A Prince, whose character is thus marked by every act which may define a Tyrant, is unfit to be the ruler of a free people."

A Dedicated FEMA Fund Will Pay for 'Alligator Alcatraz' - FactCheck.org Q: Are FEMA funds being used to construct an immigrant detention facility in the Everglades? A: Yes, the immigrant dete

Let me get this straight: Trump is using millions in FEMA shelter and services funds to build the cruel and unnecessary "Alligator Alcatraz" immigrant detention facility. 

The cruelty is staggering.

One of our highest priorities must be to protect the people who are doing the most right now to push back against Trump’s tyranny: our judiciary.

Here’s what should be done. https://robertreich.substack.com/p/protecting-our-judges

Trump ran on lowering costs for everyday Americans.

Now, Walmart says they’ll have to raise prices in response to his chaotic tariffs and consumer sentiment is plummeting. More retailers are sure to follow suit.

Is this the "New Golden Age" he promised?

Trying for a little 🌞 feel today

The IRS unit that audits ultrawealthy earners has lost 38% of its employees this year.

This will starve the government of revenue by making it easier for the rich to evade taxes — which the top 1% already do to the tune of $163B a year.

See what DOGE is really about?

100 billionaire families spent $2.6 billion in the 2024 election.

70% of these donations went to Republicans.

Now, Republicans in Congress are gearing up to slash essential programs to pay for another round of tax cuts for the rich.

This is what oligarchy looks like.

"Somewhere I read that the greatness of America is the right to protest for rights."

In the final speech of his life, Martin Luther King Jr. emphasized the importance of freedom of speech and assembly.
