did you know the IRS hasn't actually measured tax evasion in over a decade? due to lack of budget and workforce, the IRS is incapable of performing the random audits necessary to estimate tax evasion they've been forced to reuse the same numbers from 2016

I’m looking at my Social Security retirement statement and it looks like if I make it to 2034 Social Security will only be able to pay $830 of every $1000 in benefits scheduled. They’re being explicit that it’s not gonna be there for us. This should be a bigger conversation. #socialsecurity

Unbelievable

Poland’s Foreign Minister Sikorski: basically calling Trump a liar. “The US no longer finances this war since January of last year. In other words, for more than a year and a half. The US has not contributed a single cent to the defense of Ukraine. We are doing it. Europe.”

I was honored to get to speak at a small No Kings protest in Sierra Madre, CA today. It was awesome, the energy was great, and most of the people there had ALREADY VOTED! I love the courage of patriotic Americans who are doing all they can to save democracy through…democratic action! It’s glorious!

There’s a chance you’re getting ripped off at the grocery store. My name is Clayton Tucker. I’m running for TX Ag Commissioner to stop the corporations from ripping you off. Please make a plan to vote, and like, follow, and share this video! #food #groceries #texas #prices

People have to stop using #Uline. So many people who do not want to support fascism order from their huge catalogues.

Uline CEO Richard Uihlein put close to $67 million more into his Restoration of America PAC, which distributed the money to multiple other SuperPACs

Fuckheads. You know this is happening.

Surviving an alleged attempted femicide by Cerimedo (an ally of Brad Parscale), Nadia Beller claims Cerimedo collaborated w/ Meta & the Bolsonaros to suppress President Lula’s visibility. (Meta denies, blames glitches.) Meanwhile, the Trump admin has targeted Ceremido’s prosecutor. 1/

Democrats will have their hands full if they take back control of Congress. @timothysnyder.bsky.social argues that there’s one issue they must take on first — or else they’re handing Trump a massive gift.

This is completely outrageous and disgusting. This must immediately be blocked by Congress and Trump should be impeached for this. The US is now funding Putin’s war machine as he murders civilians including children. We are lost as a country.

“We’re going through some dark times and I feel like my voice matters.”

Governor JB Pritzker@govpritzker.illinois.gov

Marimar Martinez was shot five times by a Border Patrol agent and branded a “domestic terrorist” by DHS — all for just warning her neighbors and speaking her truth during Operation Midway Blitz. She deserves true justice and accountability from the federal government.

Today's jobs report is a reminder that tax cuts for corporations and the rich don’t create jobs or grow the economy. What's required is investment in working people — and better wages. When workers have money to spend, the economy grows and businesses create more jobs. Remember this.

Visitors to the US are on track to drop by almost two million year-on-year. “We’re the only major country in the world losing visitation,” the head of the US Travel Association said. “It’s mind-boggling.” www.semafor.com/article/09/2...

Proximity. If you live next to the river, you definitely know how to swim. Well done, Mayor.

Last month, we refurbished 10 tennis courts in Crotona Park — the only public tennis courts in the Bronx with lights for night play. We stopped by recently to see how things were going. Thank you to NYJTL, USTA and Yonex for helping us deliver high-quality public spaces that New Yorkers deserve.

Surveillance is not safety. Flock cameras are tracking Texans everywhere they drive, all without a warrant. Our freedom and privacy shouldn't be the price we pay for Big Tech's surveillance network.

DoorDash spent $1.4M trying to stop Zohran Mamdani from becoming mayor. This week's historic $131.5M enforcement action against DoorDash for underpaying NYC delivery workers shows why. Yet another reminder that the only thing that can beat organized money is organized people.

For those who have forgotten the past 40 years: Tax cuts for the rich ...don’t trickle down Boosting military spending ...doesn’t bring peace Slashing regulations ...doesn’t create jobs Folks, we’ve seen this all before.

Huge corporations like Amazon, Walmart, and Uber are among the top employers of SNAP and Medicaid recipients. Meanwhile, their CEOs are raking in multi-million dollar pay packages. How is this not a bigger scandal?

Pritzker: So here’s the truth, plain and simple: Our state is under siege. Not by protesters, immigrants, the deep state, the press, Canada or Mexico or Greenland, Antifa or Jewish space lasers or pride parades. No. Our state's under siege by a petty, corrupt man in Washington.

A recent survey found that 92% of U.S. adults have delayed or avoided medical care due to high costs. Meanwhile, a new study from Yale estimates that Medicare for All would save over 114,000 lives and $1 trillion a year. If this country was truly “pro-life,” we would have universal healthcare.

Casual reminder that the myth of “pulling yourself up by your bootstraps” is a cruel hoax designed to convince poor people from all walks of life that the injustices they face are a result of their own actions, rather than an oppressive system rigged against them.

France calls out the U.S. at a UN meeting: “The US used to be a beacon of human rights. Not anymore. Today, it stands alongside North Korea, Nicaragua, Mali and Russia. Isolated. And the world no longer listens to it.” U.S. representatives stormed out of the meeting. Well said France! 👏🏼🇫🇷👏🏼

Love this!

Once more: Mamdani understands that you can't just do things in politics and expect voters will notice on their own and thank you for it. You've got to work just as hard selling yourself to voters once you're in office as you did selling yourself to them to get into office. This is the way.
