Amazon announced plans to lay off 14,000 employees as it looks to invest more in AI.

Wall Street cheered the news, sending Amazon stock prices higher.

This will boost Amazon's CEO pay and bolster Jeff Bezos's net worth, which is now $250 billion.

The system is rigged.

Trump's big, ugly budget megabill gave ICE more cops than the FBI, more jails than the federal Bureau of Prisons, and a larger budget than most countries' militaries. Once the bill is fully implemented, nowhere in America will be safe from Trump's secret police state.

This is nothing more than a continuation of the president’s desperate weaponization of our justice system.

I am not fearful β€” I am fearless.

We will fight these baseless charges aggressively, and my office will continue to fiercely protect New Yorkers and their rights..

This unelected billionaire is LYING about Social Security AGAIN.

TAKE NOTE: Elon Musk is spreading insane conspiracy theories in plain view so he can go after the Social Security benefits you pay into your entire life.

NO cuts to Social Security benefits OR staff!

DOGE Has a Math Problem Why the claims of Elon Musk’s government-cutting team are not what they seem.

Since President Trump took office, Elon Musk and DOGE have wielded an unprecedented level of power to cut the government, and they claim to have stopped billions of dollars in wasteful spending.

But those claims are not what they seem, our investigative reporter explains. Listen to "The Daily."

Lutnick Remarks on Removing Government Spending in GDP Data Raises Fears Howard Lutnick, the commerce secretary, suggested government spending should be excluded from data about U.S. economic output.

Comments from a member of President Trump’s cabinet over the weekend have renewed concerns that the new administration could seek to interfere with federal statistics β€” especially if they start to show that the economy is slipping into a recession.

Tesla Paid Zero Federal Income Tax in 2024, Despite $2.3 Billion in Income This brings Tesla’s average tax rate over the past three years to 0.4 percent.

Tesla earned $2.3 billion in the United States in 2024.

You'd think it paid a lot in taxes, right?

Well it paid precisely $0 in federal income taxes last year.

You want waste and fraud? Look at what some big corporations and the rich are getting away with.

This is Oligarchy.

Since Election Day, Elon Musk, Jeff Bezos & Mark Zuckerberg have become $232 billion richer & are now worth $920 billion combined. Meanwhile, 60% of Americans live paycheck to paycheck.

We must fight for an economy that works for all, not just the few.

You want to talk about government efficiency?

We waste hundreds of billions a year on health care administrative expenses that make insurance CEOs and wealthy stockholders incredibly rich.

Expand Medicare to cover every American.
