Tyson is closing a Nebraska plant that employs 3,200 workers in order to “right-size” its business.
The meatpacking giant paid its CEO $22.7M last year, 525x its median employee's pay.
It also spent $196M in stock buybacks to reward shareholders.
Textbook corporate greed.
Breaking: An Epstein survivor just silenced press conference attendees when she delivered the following remarks:
“Today we stand in a moment that will decide whether our government belongs to the American people, or to those who prey on them.”
Medicare for All would save $450B a year.
Every dollar spent on food stamps generates $1.50-$1.80 in economic activity.
Each dollar going to low-wage workers adds $1.20 to the economy overall.
It’s not about what this country can or can’t afford.
It’s about priorities.

Donald Trump is destroying the economy. But at least he has a shiny new ballroom paid for by all the rich people he’s making richer with his kleptocracy.
Layoffs are rising to recession-like levels, new report says www.washingtonpost.com/business/202...
Why not deport these homegrown Nazis?
I'm just a poor country political historian and not some big city media fella, but it *does* seem like a slightly big deal that the leader of the United States presented comically faked "evidence" in the Oval Office to justify his power to disappear ordinary people into a Central American prison?
It’s actually Sir William Blackstone but yes, that’s the premise of due process
All this because they didn’t have a hotel pre-booked when they arrived. Insane.
"First protest at age 93..."

Cohen: Take MeidasTouch Network. They’re beating Joe Rogan, they’re beating Fox, they’re beating the lame stream news. So when there’s a march, all you have to do is contact the Meiselas brothers — next thing you know, you’ve got ten million people showing up. That’s an army.
I just landed in San Salvador a little while ago, and I look forward to meeting with the team at the U.S. embassy to discuss the release of Mr. Abrego Garcia.
I also hope to meet with Salvadoran officials and with Kilmar himself. He was illegally abducted and needs to come home.
BREAKING: Senator Chris Van Hollen is taking action on the imprisonment of Kilmar Abrego Garcia and is currently on the ground in El Salvador to demand his release.

The problem is sociopathic corporate greed. 🧐
If Trump can claim a "national emergency" to disappear legal residents without due process, what’s to stop him from doing the same to U.S. citizens who oppose him?
No one is safe — not even people legally in the country, possibly not even American citizens.
Fascism is here.
I spoke to someone at Saturday's protest who voted for rump and he was heartbroken his daughter with stage 4 cancer was denied her meds from Medicare.
Do not normalize children dying from measles. Measles was previously eliminated in the US, thanks to vaccines.
When children die from measles, it means that adults have catastrophically failed to protect them because they have rejected basic science.
Trump is ordering a nearly $100 million military parade for his birthday. My latest for @votevets.org on his wildly stupid idea. Be sure to hit that subscribe button! youtu.be/0-E5eI_2G3I?...
Spectacular view of 100,000 people attending the #HandsOff march in NYC
This is Utah in case anyone’s wondering how pissed off people are. I have never seen anything like this.
This!
