Five corporations control 90% of the US media market.

Airlines merged from 12 major carriers in 1980 to 4 today.

Four giants control 80% of meat processing.

The evidence of corporate consolidation is everywhere.

It means more power for them and less freedom for you.

After DEMANDING that Hillary Clinton's testimony on the Epstein scandal be held behind closed doors, and even threatening her with contempt for her insistence that reporters be allowed in, the GOP has been sending out photos and info to far-right influencers.

Hypocrisy is the GOP brand.

They trained for 47 days and get to wear military uniforms?!?!

Kristi Noem and Corey Lewandowski have been flying around on a taxpayer-funded f**k plane

Justice Department withheld and removed some Epstein files related to Trump An NPR investigation finds the public database of Epstein files is missing dozens of pages related to sexual abuse accusations against President Trump.

“I heard the officer say ‘that ain’t shit’.”

NASHVILLE — ICE shatter a car window in front of a newborn, refuse to look at man’s license & work visa… drag him out of his car, hit him, mock him for being Guatemalan (he’s from Mexico), laugh when he begs to say goodbye.

🎯🎯

$413,000 per bed. Insanity.

While they cut health care, food assistance, etc.

Since October, federal courts have ruled more than 4,400 times that ICE is illegally jailing immigrants.

Now the agency wants to spend $38B to turn warehouses across the country into detention camps.

Remember that some of Trump's biggest supporters are private prison companies running these camps.

Meanwhile, in Germany, the public weighs in on what they think of the Epstein Administration.

PSA:
If you didn't vote in '24 but have the gall to tell me "Thanks for your service", I'm not hearing you. Don't insult me or other veterans like that. We served so you would have the right to vote. Anything less than voting is offensive.

Trump tells soldiers to vote GOP in campaign-style rally at Fort Bragg Army policy prohibits partisan displays, and most service members refrained from cheering.

Trump can fly to Bragg, give a campaign rally in front of uniformed troops, and tell them how to vote—and that’s just “patriotic.” But 6 veterans in Congress remind the same troops they must refuse illegal orders, and his DOJ tries to brand it sedition. It’s authoritarian hypocrisy.

Yesterday morning kids were sent running from their bus stop in panic because ICE showed up. This guy at today’s ICE Out of Lindenwold protest is a must watch 😭. @maddow.bsky.social

Now Hegseth wants to decide where troops can take college classes in their off-duty time. I’m glad I was able to use this program while on active duty to go to the accredited school of my choice.

When will Republicans, veterans organizations, & retired military officers speak up about this? No president in the history of the Republic has done this. Yet Trump, Vance, & Hegseth do it constantly. It betrays the most important core value of our military-no partisan politics.

An executive order isn’t the same as a law and can’t by itself change election rules set by Congress. Trump said on Truth Social that there “will be Voter I.D. for the Midterm Elections, whether approved by Congress or not,” and that he’d issue an executive order if the SAVE America Act fails.

AG Keith Ellison: "The surge is contributing to violent crime. Two of the three homicides committed in Minneapolis in 2026 have come at the hands of federal immigration agents."

NEW: A page from Bondi's burn book. This is a list of the searches by Rep Jayapal of the unredacted Epstein files. That means the DOJ grabbed her search terms from the computers they set up for members of congress to view the Epstein files to use as ammunition. The photo is from Reuters.

NEGUSE: AG Bondi, that man works for you now, right? The man in that video from J6 yelling 'kill them!' at cops. His name is Jared Wise.

BONDI: He does work for us, yes. I believe he was pardoned

NEGUSE: And you expect hard-working police officers to believe you take law enforcement seriously?

This is utterly deranged behavior from a U.S. attorney general

Goldman: "Will the survivors and victims who are here please stand up one more time. By show of hands, how many of you or your loved ones actually have met with the DOJ? None ... How many of you were ignored by the DOJ? All of them." (Bondi responds by smearing Goldman.)

Massie: "She didn't answer anything. She came here ready to talk about the Dow Jones and the Nasdaq, which seems kind of crazy to me."

wow -- Bondi throws a fit in response to Nadler's question about how many of Epstein's co-conspirators, if any, she's investigating, aggressively pointing at him and yelling. The hearing then devolves into chaos and Raskin and Bondi start yelling at each other.

Raskin to Bondi: "You're not showing a lot interest in the victims. Whether it's Epstein's human trafficking ring or the homicidal government violence against citizens in Minneapolis, as AG you're siding with the perpetrators and ignoring the victims."
