Please join me on Friday November 6th @buffett.northwestern.edu when I talk about my work in #Yemen documenting courageous women working to save threatened cultural heritage during the war. I will show a clip from the work-in-progress documentary: events.humanitix.com/the-yemeni-w...

Dog days are over. Time to vote by November 3rd. Time to win.

Habibi, come on. We cannot have Mike Rogers back in Congress. We can win this for Abdul, but we’ll need your help:

Corporate profits are at record highs — but revenue from corporate taxes has plummeted thanks to the tax cuts in Trump and Republicans’ big, ugly bill. Meanwhile, workers’ wages are stagnant and their share of the nation’s income is at a record low. Trickle-down economics was always a hoax.

For more than 50 years, the Labor Council for Latin American Advancement (LCLAA) has championed a proud tradition of labor organizing, amplified Latino voices within the AFL-CIO, and united workers in the fight for dignity, collective power and solidarity.

Humbled to have the 44th president with us in our movement to demand more for working people in Michigan. Change is in the air. 🤝

Ready for something new. Hungry for something better. Change is in the air.

Meta gave $1M to Trump's inauguration fund — and Mark Zuckerberg himsef has helped bankroll Trump's ballroom. Now Trump's DOJ has halted a years-long criminal investigation into allegedly enabling and profiting from illegal drug sales on its platforms. Funny how that works, huh?

💥 JOIN ONE OF OUR LAST MIDTERM TRIPS! 💥 October 22–25 KAPOW is heading to Wisconsin to knock doors and help flip the state trifecta blue:

Highlight of a brilliant day on Dartmoor, finding several ‘Devil’s Fingers’ (Clatherus archeri). Absolute stunning fungi! #ukfungi #fungi

It's time to defund Elon. robertreich.substack.com/p/defund-musk

You know, Elon, if you just paid your taxes, we could give those kids food and healthcare, things far more valuable than stock in a government-welfare-dependent company that is bound to go bankrupt eventually.

JUST TO CLARIFY…👇 Republicans are trying to win the Midterms by lying about Democrats… Democrats are winning the Midterms by speaking the truth about Republicans. NOW, GO VOTE!! 😎🇺🇸✨

140 days of protests triggered by a corrupt kushner/trump family luxury island deal… yet 🇺🇸 media is essentially crickets 🦗 🦗

I don’t think our founding fathers foresaw a billionaire funding a president controlled by a  KGB agent with extreme Kompromat… Just saying. Now, go VOTE! 😎🇺🇸✨

It’s taking a long time for people to wake up to the fact that these platforms are not public forums but privately owned companies with terrible agendas and total control. If you lay down with these dogs…

Nobody hates free speech more than the fascist tech oligarchs who claimed to care about it more than anyone. What an absolute joke. P.S. they also hate democracy. As we hand them control of the country. www.hollywoodreporter.com/news/politic...

awaii enacted a law that could neuter Citizens United. Montana could soon follow suit via a ballot referendum. Here's what you should know about the plans to get Big Money out of politics — and how they could be replicated where you live. www.youtube.com/watch?v=p1fP...

Folks, I know it’s easy to get excited about all the polls showing Democrats ahead and feel like this election is a done deal. But we can’t take anything for granted. That’s why I’m urging you to take part in a No Kings early voting event today where you live. https://www.nokings.org/

Politicians use their office to get rich. Those days have got to end. No revolving door for lobbyists, no congressional stock trading, no corporate PAC money.

Republican politicians are *obsessed* with schoolchildren coming home a different gender because of pro-trans teachers, WHICH NEVER HAPPENS. But they are completely indifferent to schoolchildren not coming home *at all* because of guns, WHICH HAPPENS ALL THE TIME!

This is awesome. If your vote didn’t matter Republicans wouldn’t be trying so hard to stop you.

Friends — It's time to defund Elon Musk. https://robertreich.substack.com/p/defund-musk

This week I released my proposal to get AI Under Control to combat the growing existential risks of unrestrained artificial intelligence to humanity.

Netflix is laying off 1,000 workers — its largest layoff ever. In 2025, Netflix had a net income of $11 billion (up 26%). Its CEO was paid $53M (255x more than the median employee). And it just raised prices for the second time in just over a year. Corporate greed in a nutshell.

It’s 21 days until the US midterms: This is How We Win My latest for The Guardian: https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2026/oct/09/its-21-days-until-the-us-midterms-this-is-how-we-win

Elon Musk has spent at least $276 million since July to boost Republican candidates, a record-breaking sum. That’s just 0.028% of his total net worth. Oligarchs can rig the system at the expense of everyone else, and only spend pennies doing so. We must get Big Money out of politics.

I urge you to support Ilhan Omar’s campaign for reelection. If Democrats regain control of the House, they must investigate this flagrant abuse of power against her by Trump, Vance, and the Department of Justice. https://robertreich.substack.com/p/trumps-and-vances-islamophobic-target

Very happy to be able to spread some good news about #Yemen. Thank you @buffett.northwestern.edu for this support: buffett.northwestern.edu/news/2026/bu...
