The amount of Amazon workers relying on SNAP and Medicaid has nearly tripled since 2020 — while Amazon’s annual profits soared by over 550%. It’s the same story everywhere: corporate profits are at record highs, while workers’ share of the economy is at a record low. We must unrig the system.

The 400 richest Americans are now worth a record $8 trillion. The entire bottom 50% of American households is worth just $4.27 trillion. Read that back. Remember: Wealth can’t be separated from power. Power begets wealth and wealth begets power.

Happy belated 102nd birthday to the first Black pitcher in Cardinals history, Bill Greason! From being one of the first Black Marines and fighting in the Battle of Iwo Jima, to the last surviving Negro Leagues player, to a pastor for 50 years, Bill is a LEGEND and an inspiration. Happy birthday!

She’s a BW in Florida and she already has an uphill battle. Let’s do what we can to help pull her over the finish line.

I was 17 in 1990 visiting San Diego for the summer. Went to a drag bar called #1 on 5th in Hillcrest with my drag boyfriend. Went to Topsy’s for food after. A woman with a bad wig walked in, and Chad Michaels (Cher) yelled “WIG!!!” That’s what I hear in my head when I see recent Trump pictures.

THURSDAY: A federal judge is opening a public phone line. You can listen….live…as Katie Phang’s suit against Todd Blanche over the Epstein files goes before Judge Sullivan. No spin. No panel. No press release. Just YOU, a phone, and a judge who isn’t taking DOJ’s word for it. Dial in.

This is Katie Phang From the Midastouch network. Pulitzer is inevitable, but more important, she is hanging the DOJ and Todd Blanche out to dry. Well done Katie, a true hero. -Jack Cannon

This is cross hatching, layering parallel lines at different angles to build shadow and volume with no blending, a technique printmakers have used since Durer in the 15th century.

I have a question for those who study the media: Does anyone in corporate owned media wonder if their declining audience and trust is the product of events like we saw last night? Because, as someone who started an independent media outlet, it is definitely part of our growth.

For most of us, seeing the Klan 2.0, a.k.a. Patriot Front, march through Washington, D.C., unchallenged by authorities overshadowed any celebration of America’s 250th anniversary. My ancestors lived through this. And no one today can say with a straight face that racism is behind us.
