Journalist Edward R. Murrow used his platform on CBS to criticize the witch hunts led by Senator Joseph McCarthy in the 1950s.

This is what real journalism should do β€” hold power to account, not capitulate to it.

Opinion | How to Save the American Experiment

The Great Depression &WWII forced America to take from the rich & give to everybody else. It was that income redistribution that created the largest middle class in US history. We need to do it again if we are going to save US now

Energy Dept. Cancels $7.5 Billion for Hundreds of Projects, Mostly in Blue States

It is beyond the point that blue states stop funding red states. We provide much of their federal subsidy &get absolutely nothing but lies &destruction from them &the people they elect.

In Cali - Kaiser rates going up 12-31%. Some services dropped & in addition to the premium hikes many services also increasing 10-33%.

This is what the Billionaire tax cuts are doing to 95% of the country’s citizens.

Ignorance is obedience…

Managing partner previously supported Obama.

IMHO they’re silent & cowering to try & limit the target on them.

They are supporting money now & know they will lose some fans - but they still have thousands more who will fill those spots.

They are not true supporters anymore if freedom. Sad 😒

keep me in solidarity with the baristas.
The individual who purchases the good can write on the company's product whatever they want. This for me and many others is truly a bridge too far.
Would this push a gun store owner to engrave the name of a politician we don't like when purchasing ammunition?

Opinion | Why Are My Fellow Baristas Being Used as Props in a Dangerous Culture War Stunt?

NIMBY started in Petaluma,CA in the 70’s. The town looks the same on the west side today - teast side has 1000s of homes & very little new business, light industrial or commercial.

Politics is always swayed by $ & power.

These towns occupants have largely remained the same.

Progress < NIMBY.

Can renters evade eviction if DOGE and Trump delay Social Security benefits? Gov. Gavin Newsom is weighing legislation that would allow California renters to fight eviction if their Social Security checks are disrupted by DOGE and Trump

This one’s quite the buzzsaw…no one wins but everyone could lo$e - it’s all about $$$$$$$$$.

What a government shutdown will mean for Californians, from Social Security to national parks Critical benefits from the Social Security Administration and Medicare will keep flowing in a government shutdown. You could notice delays if it drags on.

The shutdown will happen for many reasons. Here’s how it may impact our fellow Cali residents.

Hunker down.

Every time I see a post by Mark Cuban on BlueSky, I ask why he & other multi millionaires need so much $. I’ve yet to receive a response…

The attached is from a reader on the income disparity gap we have in this country.

I think we’re intelligent enough to know who’s saying what.

Project 2025 is meant to destroy almost everything in the country & remake what’s left under their complete control - just like the president’s failed (if not for tax breaks) businesses…

Our sr. neighbors ? us to review their EOC today that came in the mail. Kaiser Permanente Senior rates up 30%. The monthly is up $30 & their Medicare advantage went down $1 but they’re removing some benefits & raising many others. See the daily hospital $ on the last line

Interesting-thought I was being paranoid during visit to my dentist in NorCal earlier this yr. He came in after my cleaning & asked how r things. I said not sure β€˜we r living in pardons r us now…’ He tensed up & ignored the dental hygienist areas of concern-said two of my other teeth need crowns.IDK

I'm not surprised by the lengths they are willing to go to stop us from seeing the Epstein Files. Just look at how far they were willing to go to stop us from ever hearing from Jeffrey Epstein again.

Trump just ordered the military into Portland, and he’s giving them the green light to use lethal force on American citizens.

Authoritarianism is an abstract concept but Trump is making its impacts real and tangible. Let’s be real about it: This is the beginning of dictatorship in America.
