because, they are piranha

There should be a law passed, and enforced, that we will no longer have for profit prisons of any kind! Ever again! Incentivized incarceration should be a crime against humanity and should be retroactively enforced! They know what they are doing is wrong!

We never had to worry about fake news until we had a fake president.

The US Navy fired on and seized an Iranian-flagged cargo ship today.
That's not blockade enforcement. That's a kinetic act on a sovereign vessel.
Anyone still calling this a "limited operation" isn't paying attention.

The fact there was a mass shooting with EIGHT dead today and it barely made the front page of any news site tells you everything you need to know how fucked up we are as a country. www.nytimes.com/2026/04/19/us/shreveport...

Elias Law Group is currently litigating 87 voting and election cases in 44 states and the District of Columbia. It is no exaggeration to say that the future of free and fair elections and democracy is on the docket.

Don’t believe the lies you hear about immigrant and undocumented workers.

The real villains are the greedy corporations that want workers fighting one another while they rake in record profits at all workers’ expense. https://youtu.be/4u_HwUn4bYQ?si=QW7tUu6SRTAremKY

Pete Speaks Live in Tulsa, Oklahoma YouTube video by Pete Buttigieg

However you've lined up politically in the past, if you're worried about where our country is headed, you belong in this conversation.

Here are my full opening remarks from last night in Tulsa, Oklahoma. Thankful to the people of Oklahoma for such a warm welcome back.

The Worst Justice Ever His attack on progressivism last week was the last straw

I’ve long assumed that Samuel Alito was the worst Supreme Court Justice in recent history. But I’ve come to revise my view in light of recent comments made by one judge in particular. Let me explain... robertreich.substack.com/p/the-worst-justice-in-m...

We need 200+ million of US to deliver the message #thetrumpregimeisgoingDOWN

We need 200+ million of US to deliver the message. #theyaregoingdown

Correct. We need 200+million of US in the streets and boycotting wherever possible!

Stupid, stupid, stupid

This regime is so stupid

How can anyone put up with the insanity, the lies, the constant drama, the disrespect, and the downright corruption

Strike, strike, strike!

Make the economy hurt from boycotting every tech company, every media company, etc

If Congress can evict 2 members for "sexual assault"
where is their Impeachment for the President ?

I don't think I'll ever get over Clarence Thomas ruling on cases related to Jan 6 knowing that his wife was an active participant in the attempted coup.

Or ruling on cases related to government regulations and a wealth tax knowing he took gifts from billionaires.

It's a disgrace.

Zohran Mamdani:

To be told a city-run grocery store is implausible, but $500 million/day to kill people in Iran & Lebanon is necessary, speaks to a broken politics.

Effective 2025 federal tax rates paid by these corporations:

Alphabet: 8.01%
AT&T: 4.6%
Meta: 3.57%
General Motors: 3.09%
Amazon: 1.37%
Exxon Mobil: 1.31%
Disney: -1.57%
CVS Health: -3.88%

Income tax rate paid by the typical American: 14.5%

This is what a rigged system looks like.

@whitehouse.senate.gov predicted that BONDI would be fired. He’s now predicting that Kash Patel will be next!

I Thought it was going to be COMRADE TULSI. Kash was my 2nd choice.

Is it Michiganders — who are angry, anxious, and fed up watching us get dragged into a war nobody asked for, burning $2 billion a day, while we're told we can't scrape together money for daycare or a doctor's visit?

BREAKING: Mallory McMorrow just became the first Michigan Senate candidate to submit 30k signatures to get on the ballot.

How the AI oligarchy devoured America

This story is a part of "Power Hungry," our latest package on the AI oligarchs who are upending communities over their plans for massive data centers across the country.

Check it out:

Number go up Our charts tell the story of oligarchy in overdrive.

America’s wealthiest men are spending more money than ever before, in a race against each other that’s leaving the rest of us in the dust.

By 2030, data centers will consume as much energy as 41 million US homes.

The United States is destroying itself | Rebecca Solnit The daily news can’t adequately convey the administration’s sabotaging of our government, economy, alliances and environment

“The United States is being murdered, and it’s an inside job. Every department, every branch, every bureau and function of the federal government is being fatally corrupted or altogether dismantled or disabled.”

📌MEDIA: Stop calling Jared Kushner a "high-level negotiator." He's a damn thief operating in his repulsive family's best interests not ours.
