Yessss!! I'm sick of his daily personal grievances being aired. Somebody needs to give the man some duct tape, a hug-me jacket and a padded cell. America's sanity needs to be restored.

ICE attempted
and failed to disappear a food delivery guy.
It needed to be scored.

California made history in 2025. 🌞⚡ Solar is now the state’s #1 electricity source, overtaking gas (83.1 vs 81.6 TWh). In under a decade, solar surged from marginal to dominant. Big kudos to California—proof the clean energy future is not capacity, it’s generation. More to come! #EnergyTransition

Republicans would rather shut down the government than help millions of Americans afford health care. This article tells some of their stories, and is a good reminder of what’s at stake.

It doesn’t get talked about enough that our military rigorously trains people to be ruthless killing machines, subjects them to intensely traumatic situations, and then sends them out into our communities with no therapy or support. It’s astonishing more vets don’t explode into violence like this.

The sleeping giant is awakening After a week of authoritarian excess, the nation is turning on Trump

Friends — Something happened this week. I don't know if you heard it, but I sure did. I believe that America's Sleeping Giant is beginning to awaken. https://robertreich.substack.com/p/the-sleeping-giant-is-awakening

Jeff Bezos was worth $194 billion at the end of 2024.

He’s currently worth $231.5 billion as of today.

It would take him just 17 days to see his net worth increase by $2.5 billion.

Harry Enten: "The more RFK Jr is trying to implement his policies, the further down his net approval rating goes. And at this particular point, 21 points underwater is not a place you want to be."

I miss my 50-year streak of not knowing who the Secretary of Health is or anything about them.

Why Won’t Farmers Rebel Against Trumponomics? Because They’re Rich. The majority of family farmers aren’t working-class strivers. They’re affluent, politically connected businessmen who know when their next bailout is coming.

The majority of “family farmers” aren’t working-class strivers. They’re affluent, politically connected businessmen who know when their next bailout is coming.

Not so fun fact I learned today, NexStar owns The Hill. They bought them in 2021 and we have seen how their reporting and lurched to the right over the last few years. #Voices4Victory #DemVoice1 #USDemocracy #ProudBlue thehill.com

Melania Trump modeled in US prior to getting work visa Melania Trump was paid for 10 modeling jobs in the United States worth $20,056 that she worked in the seven weeks before her attorney says she had legal permission to work in the country, according to...

If the GOP want to continue down their current path (Deport Omar! Deport Mamdani!), then Dems need to start calling for the denaturalization & deportation of Melania, fight fire with fire - plus there are far more unanswered questions about her immigration to the US than either Mamdani or Omar.

The Supreme Court Has Always Been This Bad From allowing segregation to gutting abortion rights, the court’s reactionary streak runs deep. A new collection shows why calls for reform are as old as the court itself.

The Supreme Court’s recent spate of reactionary rulings is a return to the historical norm, writes Richard Kreitner in this excerpt of "The Nine Have Spoken." Proposing ideas for overhauling the court should not be considered particularly radical.

Lord of the Roths: How Tech Mogul Peter Thiel Turned a Retirement Account for the Middle Class Into a $5 Billion Tax-Free Piggy Bank Roth IRAs were intended to help average working Americans save, but IRS records show Thiel and other ultrawealthy investors have used them to amass vast untaxed fortunes.

Over 20 years, Peter Thiel quietly turned his Roth IRA into a gargantuan tax-exempt piggy bank.

Using stock deals unavailable to most people, the billionaire took a retirement account worth less than $2,000 in 1999 and spun it into a $5 billion windfall.
