Robert Reich The Big Picture: How We Got Into This Mess, And How We Get Out of It | Robert Reich

I’ve been in or around politics for over a half-century now.

I’ve watched as corporations and the super-rich flooded D.C. with campaign cash and ransacked our system.

It won't be easy, but here’s how we break the corporate oligarchy and return power to the people.

We all get that we have to worry about the upcoming elections. Especially with the Dominion purchase. And we are.

But can we at least start addressing the active coup?

The regime is doing all it can to kill renewable energy.
It is deeply in the pocket of the fossil fuel industry.
To all our detriment.

A federal judge didn’t “steal” the Commander-in-Chief’s powers—she ruled that DoD exceeded the limits Congress set. That is the rule of law working as designed. What threatens the Republic isn’t judicial review, but officials who insist they’re above it.

Hope you had a nice Sunday. Everything here still stands.👇

Flanagan: This is what happens when our “leaders” prioritize corporate interests over all of us in real time. They’re like, “Just wait — this year we’re going to take care of all the billionaires, and then maybe next year we’ll focus on the things you need to keep food on the table and pay the rent”

Texas Republicans have gerrymandered their way into a corner If the courts don’t stop them, Hispanic voters may punish them

Polls have consistently shown that the demographic groups with whom Donald Trump gained the most ground in 2024, namely young and Latino voters, have also been the quickest to sour on him

As I spent more and more of my life under the care of doctors, nurses, and researchers striving to improve the lives of others, I watched as Bobby cut nearly a half billion dollars for research into mRNA vaccines, technology that could be used against certain cancers; slashed billions in funding from the National Institutes of Health, the world's largest sponsor of medical research; and threatened to oust the panel of medical experts charged with recommending preventive cancer screenings. Hundreds of N.I.H. grants and clinical trials were cancelled, affecting thousands of patients. I worried about funding for leukemia and bone-marrow research at Memorial Sloan Kettering. I worried about the trials that were my only shot at remission. Early in my illness, when I

"I don't feel like I'm particularly political. I'm certainly not weighing in on lots of specific policies....I mean, look, maybe it's a policy disagreement to say masked men should not be forcing Americans to show their papers."

My MVP for this week: I've discovered some folks who could do a much better job running American trade policy. #Econ101 #GoBlue #TeachEcon

If I’m understanding this correctly, X is owned by a white nationalist who pays poor people of color in developing countries to pretend to be working class white Americans to scare other white Americans into being afraid poor people of color from developing countries are going to ruin America?

1) Start the worst European war since 1945 and commit every imaginable war crime
2) Decide how you want to be rewarded for your aggression
3) Leak the list of your desiderata to the US press
4) Wait for the US president to enforce your wish list on your victim.

"’Trump’s plan to force Ukraine to give up more territory, to cut its Army by more than half, to never join NATO nor let foreign troops in its territory is an abomination’, Rep Bacon wrote. ‘This agreement weakens Ukraine and leaves them vulnerable to new Russian invasions in years to come’.”

I still can't get over this photo.

COP30 overpromised, underdelivered, empowered distractions, backtracked on issues and once again gave big oil and big ag a free pass.

Unfortunately, the suspicions of climate scientists (here in Brazil and abroad) were confirmed again.

Tell Congress: Support discharge petition to force vote on ACA tax credits Contact Congress today!

Mike Johnson is big mad that we forced through a petition and forced a vote on releasing the Epstein files.

So let’s do it again. This time to restore the ACA credits he stole from us:

EPA just approved new ‘forever chemical’ pesticides for use on food Critics warn the EPA’s approvals of new PFAS pesticides could expose more Americans to “forever chemicals” through their food.

What? How can this be?
So scary.

This is my kind of good trouble.

It’s crazy to think about the crimes we’re going to learn about after this regime ends.

We’re already hearing about Watergate level crimes every week. Imagine what will come out after it’s over.

We’re going to need a full accounting of all that’s been done in violation of the constitution.

Kleptocracy

Too late. Marco Rubio already spilled the truth. The so called peace plan was Russia’s wish list, not something the US drafted. He’s trying to walk it back but the damage is done.

He’s scrambling.

Just so we're clear. Bombing or starting a war with Venezuela without Congressional approval would be an illegal act. Military officers are within their rights to refuse such an order.

Americans are largely opposed to attacking Venezuela.
