60 people have now died in ICE custody since Trump's return to office. Our country is set to spend $268 BILLION on mass deportations and detentions through the end of Trump's term. Instead of death and cruelty, imagine what we could have invested that money in instead?

Trump’s attempt to overturn any results of the 2026 election he dislikes took a sharp turn toward authoritarianism when his DOJ asked a federal court to block certification of the Senate election in Alaska if the Republican incumbent narrowly loses. Here's what you should know.

Americans are rightfully fed up with the billionaire robber barons of Big Tech. Are we on the precipice of another age of reform? Here's why we might be... https://robertreich.substack.com/p/the-billionaire-barons-of-big-tech

Very much presaged by the 600-page 2019 NYT bestseller PROOF OF CONSPIRACY—which covers enough of the same ground that few who read the article below will be surprised, if they read that earlier book—but this new book excerpt is nevertheless shocking for further confirming that Kushner is a traitor.

Remember: If your vote didn't matter, billionaires wouldn't be spending their fortunes trying to buy our elections. Stay calm, support good candidates, do whatever you can to get out the vote, and vote as soon as you can. Don't let Big Money win.

How does any leader in any Democracy get away with this?

The world would be a far, far better place if Trump, Putin and Netanyahu were replaced by wise, good leaders,

How does it happen in Victoria that people with a severe mental illness are not taken into care?

I don’t care what side of the aisle you’re on, nobody should support this kind of deception. They created a fake pamphlet to spark trans outrage and sent it to every home in Texas. Then their paid shills continued the outrage on social media. Politics is broken.

Just 10 people have already poured over $1 BILLION into this year’s midterm elections. 90% has gone to Republicans. In the entire 2008 presidential cycle, the last election before Citizens United, total billionaire spending was $16 million. We need to get Big Money out of our democracy.

Watching Barnaby Joyce standing behind Pauline Hanson as she justifies making satire out of a woman’s serious health issue makes you wonder how did he get here. He was better than that.

This old lady had a fall in the street recently. Two small boys (8-10) came running. Are you OK? Can we help? (My husband was with me) As they went on ther way, and a woman caught up with them, one of them turned around and asked with concern. ‘Was the rest of your day OK’?

This is America.

How can any woman vote for this Party? Or any decent man? Or want Pauline Hanson to be our representative on the world stage?

We’re a banana republic And Republicans in Congress endorse every bit of it.

Americans, please don’t worry about your child coming home from school a different sex. Worry about your child not coming home from school because they were shot to death.

Good news: This backlog has been cleared. Bad news: There is now a separate, new backlog. Early voting starts Monday. Story: www.votebeat.org/texas/2026/1...

It is beyond any comprehension that Trump remains President, and has not been removed from Office. No other Democracyy on Earth would tolerate this level of cruelty and stupidity. The tiger stunt being particularly abhorrent.

Trump pardoned a foreign billionaire indicted for bribery. Months earlier, the billionaire’s daughter donated $1.5M to Trump’s super PAC and pledged $2.5M to his ballroom project. Could Trump’s pay-to-pardon scheme get any more corrupt? https://youtu.be/NflcWXdV-B0?si=icf49apE-up1x1xV

Kroger just announced the largest layoffs in its history, with plans to cut 3,000 employees as it ramps up use of AI. Reminder that Kroger has spent $12.3B on stock buybacks since 2019 and paid its CEO $14M last year — 417x its median worker's pay. AI is turbo-charging corporate greed.

I'm voting YES on Prop 40, the California billionaire tax. Here's why.

Remember: Wealth cannot be separated from power. We're seeing in real time how the extreme concentration of wealth is distorting our politics, rigging markets, and granting unprecedented power to a handful of people. Taxing the rich isn't just an economic issue, it's a defense of our democracy.

More than 500 U.S. citizens have been detained by ICE, according to ProPublica. 70% of ICE detainees have no criminal conviction. Trump’s promise to go after the “worst of the worst” was always a lie. It was always a pretext to terrorize Black and brown communities. Remember this.

Early voting is already underway in some states. From now until Nov 3, I urge you all to... 1) Help get out the vote 2) Protect our electoral machinery from interference 3) Not succumb to complacency, defeatism, or cynicism We are the only ones who can end this nightmare.

Stop blaming Trump. Blame Republicans for what America has become. The nastiest Democracy in the world.

The US is responsible for what is happening in Gaza and on the West today Decades of unconditional military and financial support has led to the elimination ~of- Palestinians project Democrats are equally culpable.

The midterms are being flooded with dark money & Trump is doing everything he can to suppress the vote. But remember — WE THE PEOPLE outnumber Trump and his billionaire backers. Keep phoning. Keep canvassing. Keep getting out the vote for candidates on the side of working people. It is essential.
