I'm guessing no one at Twitter ever saw a dime of severance

Reminder that Starbucks’ CEO made 6,666x more than the company's median employee in 2024.

Now, Starbucks is lifting a cap on the CEO's use of a private jet to commute from California to Seattle.

It's been four years since Starbucks stores began unionizing and workers still don't have a contract.

Yeah, there are a few words I don't think men get to use. For this very reason.

The Kids Trump Sent to ICE’s Dilley Detention Center ProPublica went inside the immigrant detention center for families in Dilley, Texas. Children held there told us about t

The Dilley family detention center is run by CoreCivic, a major Trump donor who has raked in millions from federal contracts already.

Never forget who is profiting from this cruelty.

This was my first thought

We need some updates on the constitution anyway

Oh, what a beautiful thought! You're so right.

If I have any credibility with you from 20 years of reporting on rightwing & fascist movements, please listen when I beg you not to celebrate Charlie Kirk getting shot. Leave aside morality: this isn’t a match in dry grass, it’s a torch. We do not want what this could ignite & we would not win.

OH. MY. GOD. I don't know whether his staff did this or someone else did, but if people are jumping on the bandwagon, all the better.

I haven't read the book yet, but something I thought the show did well was acknowledge the horrors without unnecessary depictions of Black trauma. It demonstrates how even subtle forms of oppression were and are their own forms of violence.

BREAKING: Israeli Settlers Kill American Citizen in Occupied West Bank, Family Says Sayfollah Musallet was visiting his family in the village of Al-Mazra'a ash-Sharqiya when settlers allegedly beat him unconscious and blocked an ambulance from reaching him for hours.

If Hamas had just killed an Israeli-American there’d be wall to wall coverage in the US media. But Israeli settlers just killed a Palestinian-American so you’ll read about it at Zeteo but not many other places:

Ex-CIA Whistleblower: "The NSA Audited The 2024 Election, Kamala Harris Won" Math doesn’t lie—people do. A buried NSA‑authorized audit paved the way for this unelected illegitimate regime.

I have often said, it could only be an utter hellscape. White people have historically fled every country without color. Melanin deficiency is no basis for a culture.

What an important point by @jkbjournalist.bsky.social back in February and ever more relevant.

"Pam Bondi was Florida's attorney general 2011-2109 ... So questions should be asked about why she didn't take up the [Epstein] case -- or launch a probe -- when she was attorney general in Florida."

Guess what Trump did to the U.S. Attorney in Southern Florida who went behind victims' backs, over line prosecutor's head, & approved an arguably-illegal 2008 nonprosecution agreement with Epstein.

Trump made him U.S. Secretary of Labor in 2017.

a study in 2020 (www.cnbc.com/amp/2020/11/...) found huge companies like Walmart and McDonald’s paid such low wages that their employees were among the top enrollees of medicaid and food stamps.

tell companies to stop freeloading off the system and take care of their employees. problem solved!

The department of education was created to prevent individual states from disobeying federal orders to integrate schools and provide equal access to education for students of all colors. Anyone arguing that today’s ruling it’s about anything but a segregationist agenda is lying to you.

Recently, my book THEY CALLED US ENEMY was banned – again – in Tennessee. Book bans are out of control. Huge parts of American history are being restricted.

Congress Gives ICE More Money Than It Could Have Ever Imagined It’s impossible to overstate how much power ICE just got from Trump’s budget.

Republicans just took away your healthcare so they can fund their secret police: newrepublic.com/post/197612/...

White supremacy has convinced too many of you that basic human decency has to be earned

Then the coal company came with the world's largest shovel
And they tortured the timber and stripped all the land
Well, they dug for their coal till the land was forsaken
