The richest man owns X. The second and fourth richest men control Google. The third richest man owns The Washington Post. The fifth richest man owns Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp. And now the sixth richest could soon take over both Paramount and Warner Bros. See the problem here?

Absolutely incredible. NASA Astronaut Reid Wiseman, who commanded Artemis II, took this footage from the far side of the Moon with his iPhone. Watch with sound on.

The effective federal corporate income tax rate: 1950: 50% 1990: 25% 2020: 13% Stop asking "but how we will pay for it?" Restore the corporate tax rate. That is how we will pay for it.

We call ourselves "intelligent," yet the humblest fungus can decompose waste and build soil, a tree can harness solar energy, and a wetland can purify water—all without toxic byproducts. True intelligence is learning from these systems, not bulldozing them.

Nearly twice as old as the dinosaurs, horseshoe crabs have been crawling ashore for over 450 million years. Sadly, their populations have plummeted by more than 70% in recent decades. So we just announced our intent to sue the federal government for denying them #ESA protections. bit.ly/41quLDj

No shit Sherlock. Of course, there's a drop in support. They've been taken over by multi-nationals, they pollute the waterways and nearby coasts, kill seals and waterbirds, use a shit tonne of antibiotics, and impact our wild fish industries and recreational fishers. #politas #auspol

🐋 Our marine mammals are the wild pulse of our ocean, but their home is being wrecked by Big Oil. If we want seas full of life, we must stop expanding fossil fuels into their home 🌊 This #WorldWildlifeDay, choose protection over pollution Act now 👉 act.oceana.org/page/171529/...

This is not getting enough attention!

Rising ocean temps blamed for massive die-off of marine life. "Researchers examined the year-to-year change of 33,000 [fish] populations in the northern hemisphere.... They found the drop in biomass from chronic heating to be as high as 19.8% in a single year." www.theguardian.com/environment/...

So cute 😍 play is universal!

Is there anything more wonderful than a pachyderm pile up? Yes, when it involves two calves born to orphans we’ve reintegrated. Zigi and Sulwe are among 91 tiny trunks born as a direct result of our Orphans’ Project – meet this next generation: sheldrickwildlifetrust.org/o...

It's near-white out conditions in Chicago as the snow comes down, and tonight's anti-ICE/CBP rally is wrapping up in front of city hall. But not before the crowd bounces and chants, "I believe that we will win!"

The march in Chicago has continued on past Trump Tower and is turning back south into downtown. The snow is coming down hard now. As it does, the column chants, "say it once and say it twice, we do not fuck with ICE"

Conservatives, Trump or their corporate allies now own or control: Fox, OANN, Newsmax, RSBN, CBS, X, TikTok, Clear Channel, Sinclair, Meta (FB, Insta), WSJ, WashPost, and thousands of radio stations. They *are* the media. Yet they’ll continue to complain about liberal media bias.

Is there anything cuter?

Meet Kaikai, who has captured every heart at Kaluku. Daphne Sheldrick once said when orphans play, you know they've turned a corner. For Kaikai, who had a heart-breaking start to life, seeing her turn a wave “hello” into a game shows her recovery is well underway. Adopt her: www.swt.bio/kaikai

Five corporations control 90% of the US media market. Airlines merged from 12 major carriers in 1980 to 4 today. Four giants control 80% of meat processing. A handful of companies control the pharmaceutical industry. The evidence of corporate concentration is everywhere.

Most Americans couldn’t pick Peter Thiel out of a lineup, and that’s exactly how he likes it. He’s one of the most powerful, influential, and quietly dangerous men in the world a political engineer with a surveillance empire and a philosophy that reads like a breakup letter to democracy.

I don't understand why I see things so differently. I see a health insurance industry that thinks it's entitled to charge people 1/3rd of their income for healthcare. That industry shouldn't be "fixed." It should be burned to the ground and its ashes pissed on.
