We are now learning how much oppression and abuse Americans will tolerate. The day will come when enough Americans will decide enough is enough and this lawless regime must be stopped. But right now too many are willing to let the lawless abuse continue.

I continue to sincerely want the term โ€œKavanaugh Stopโ€ to be a badge of shame for the rest of Brett Kavanaughโ€™s days; the only bit of writing heโ€™s known or remembered for; his sole contribution to the Law; for him to perceive, in little stabs of self-awareness, that this will be his rancid legacy.

Donald Trump is telling his DOJ to prosecute people involved in defeating him in 2020. He will claim the 2025 California referendum was fraudulent. He is going to try to impose voter ID and ban mail-in and early voting for 2026.

I will do everything I can in the courtroom and in public to stop him.

During the shutdown, Trump could find $40 billion to bail out Argentina & $300 million for a ballroom to host dinner parties with billionaires, but he wonโ€™t tap emergency funds to prevent millions of American kids from going hungry?

How cruel is that?

The Shady World of Surveillance Pricing (Ft. Lina Khan)
Robert Reich The Shady World of Surveillance Pricing (Ft. Lina Khan)

A new report finds corporations like Kroger and McDonald's are using digital loyalty programs to track your data and potentially charge you more.

It's a tactic known as surveillance pricing.

Early voting in the NYC mayoral election begins TODAY.

If you're a New Yorker, I urge you to vote for Zohran Mamdani โ€” the only candidate who will stand up to the oligarchy and fight for working people.

Listen to his inspiring words from primary night.

โ€œAn attack on anyoneโ€™s fundamental rights is an attack on all of us.โ€

We have more power than they do, if we choose to exercise it.

Stop shopping as much as possible.

Call big box stores and tell them why.
