What a pathetic, idiotic fool!

According to a new study, members of Congressional leadership perform 47% better in stock market trades than their rank-and-file peers, thanks to access to nonpublic information.

Today would be a great day to ban ALL elected officials from trading stock, don't you think?

🚨Life saving vaccination recommendations voted down by a panel hand-picked by RFK Jr.

This radical agenda is going to leave infants open to dangerous, but preventable, diseases.

I'm writing articles of impeachment against him. He's gotta go.

Donald Trump Jr-backed start-up scores $600mn US federal government deal President’s son’s fund 1789 Capital poised to capitalise from father’s administration

In Nov. 2024, Trump Jr. joined Unusual Machines, a drone maker, as an "advisor.” In October, they won a big contract from the Army.

On Dec. 3rd, Vulcan Elements, a start-up, got a $620 million loan from the DOD. You won't guess who invested back in August!

Join me in Polk County on December 15 for our next town hall.
Leadership matters, and so does hearing directly from you. I’m looking forward to an honest conversation about the future of Northwest Georgia and the work ahead.

Robert Reich The Secret Behind High Gas Prices

1 million acres of pristine public land in Alaska will now be open to fossil fuel drilling, thanks to Republicans in Congress.

Big Oil spent nearly $500 million lobbying and boosting friendly candidates last year — and now they're getting a big return on their investment.

Speaker Mike Johnson Working Behind Scenes to Slash IVF Provision From NDAA The claim by disabled Army veteran and Sen. Tammy Duckworth comes as both chambers of Congress seek a final version of the NDAA.

Trying to secretly rip IVF protections out of the NDAA is a slap in the face to every service member and military family who needs help starting a family.

This republican Congress’s war on healthcare for veterans is disgusting. And it must be stopped.

Layoffs have hit over 1.1M so far this year — the most since the pandemic.

Yet corporate profits continue to hit record highs, with corporations increasingly spending those earnings on stock buybacks to enrich execs and shareholders.

This is what a rigged economy looks like.

Robert Reich The Illusion of Choice: How Big Business Controls Your Life (ft. Lina Khan)

Netflix is planning to buy Warner Bros for $72 billion, allowing it to acquire its major competitor HBO Max.

This corporate monopoly will be great for Netflix’s executives and a raw deal for everyone else.

Lina Khan explains the danger of corporate concentration.

The media and entertainment industry is already highly consolidated. I have serious concerns about acquisitions in this sector that could further limit consumer choice, raise prices, and harm artists. We need more competition—in streaming and across the broader economy—not less.

We’ve seen that American capitalism is one of the harshest forms of capitalism on the planet. How did it get so bad?

Robert Reich Why I'm Voting YES On Prop 50

SCOTUS is allowing Texas to redistrict early.

Remember that California responded by passing Prop 50 last month.

Other states must also counteract Trump's attempt to steal the 2026 midterms.

This isn’t a race to the bottom. It’s a means of avoiding the bottom.

US vaccine advisers say not all babies need a hepatitis B shot at birth A federal vaccine advisory committee has voted to end a longstanding recommendation that all U.S. babies get the hepatitis B vaccine on the day they’re born.

The Trump Administration finds new ways to pull the rug out from under Americans every day.

And now they're putting babies in danger.

Illinois just enacted a law to provide our own science-based recommendations to protect access to vaccines so families get the care they need.

"It is alleged that Viv is a woman from Slovakia that Tate groomed, trafficked, and raped from the age of 15 and distributed child rape media of her when she was 17 years old. Tate is charged with trafficking an unidentified minor also 17 years old." #OpDeathEaters

Getting shit done for Michigan! 💪

The DOJ is hemorrhaging staff, morale and commitment, as experienced prosecutors are sacked and replaced by unqualified political sycophants.

Trump's Gangster State endangers public safety and national security.

Democrats must show America that they can be better trusted than Republicans to bring prices down and real wages up by fighting for these 10 things. https://robertreich.substack.com/p/what-democrats-must-pledge-to-america

Every dot on this map is a New Yorker who chipped in for the Transition to make sure we can hit the ground running on Day 1.

$3 million raised from all five boroughs. $1 million to go.
Thank you for powering this transition. Let's cross that finish line together.

The collective 7.5% tax rate paid over 7 years by American, Delta, JetBlue, Southwest and United is about half the 14.5% paid by the average U.S. household in 2022.

Counting only Delta, Southwest and United—the collective tax rate declines to 4%.

The tax code is rigged.

Childhood vaccination rates were falling before Trump took office.

But RFK Jr.'s latest attacks on vaccines will make new outbreaks of old diseases even more deadly.

I'm old enough to remember when polio put my friends into iron lungs. We do not want to go back to that era.

Marjorie Taylor Greene is leaving Congress and I need your help to flip this district. I am live now:

Across Michigan, grocery prices are too damn high. We needed to do something about it so I wrote the No Tariffs on Groceries Act, to get YOUR dollars back in YOUR pockets!

I’ll always fight for the Ohioans who serve this country and work to make sure they have the resources they need when they come home.

What happened to this RFK Jr.?

It’s not the start of an oligarchy. — We’re in the thick of it.

Reminder about Jan 6:

it really happened
It was a horror
140+ police were injured
A range of violent weapons were used by attackers
Chants to hang Mike Pence were heard
There was a gallows and guns
Pipe bombs diverted police as mob approached
