Before there are billionaires: No one goes hungry. Everyone has a home. No one pays for medical care. Free merit-based education. That's the basic citizen package.

Absent some form of economic rebalancing, advanced automation leads to a future that is not just unjust, but unstable. If machines are doing the work, all humans must still receive the dividends. Otherwise, the system fails. History suggests that societies either adapt—or break.

I asked ChatGPT: What do you think the future of AI will be in relation to humans ultimately: a partnership, AI over-lordship, etc? But I had accidentally hit create image and it produced this artwork.

In terms of global box office revenue and cultural influence, the U.S. dominates the movie industry— often accounting for 60–70% of global box office revenues due to international distribution and marketing power...so

The Trump family's crypto business just got a huge $2 billion investment from a UAE government-backed firm. We are witnessing a foreign government effectively bribe the President of the United States — right out in the open. Hello?

I think a lot about what Carl Sagan said in one of his final interviews.

Exactly!👇

The perverting effect of money.

Last night was the 250th anniversary of Paul Revere's midnight ride to warn the Minutemen of approaching British troops. I want to take a moment to share an excerpt from the Declaration of Independence's grievances against King George III. Remind you of anyone?

A massive crowd at Coachella erupted in boos when Senator Bernie Sanders mentioned Donald Trump during a surprise appearance tonight

Prediction: Today (4/9/25) registered the greatest ill gotten gains from insider trading in history.

The upward redistribution of wealth over the past 50 years has shifted $80 trillion from the bottom 90% of Americans to the top 1%.  That’s $80 trillion that would have gone into the paychecks of the working class. The greatest trick of all is trickle-down economics.

“A nation that continues year after year to spend more money on military defense than on programs of social uplift is approaching spiritual doom.” -Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.

"Every gun that is made, every warship launched, every rocket fired signifies, in the final sense, a theft from those who hunger and are not fed, those who are cold and are not clothed." -Dwight D. Eisenhower, 1953

SpaceX just landed a $5.92B contract with the Pentagon for Space Force rocket launches — the largest contract among the three firms who secured deals to send satellites into orbit. While DOGE cuts essential services for you, Musk is getting a taxpayer-funded windfall. Hello?

TRUMP DITCHES FALLEN SOLDIERS' DIGNIFIED TRANSFER FOR GOLF DINNER Trump won't attend the dignified transfer of 4 U.S. soldiers at Dover AFB who died in Lithuania. He'll be at his Saudi-backed LIV Golf dinner in Florida instead. The soldiers were honored by Lithuania's president.

Sen. Booker just broke the record for the longest floor speech in Senate history—a record set by Strom Thurmond trying to block the Civil Rights Act. The irony ain’t lost on us. From fighting against justice to fighting for it. This is what courage & being on the right side of history looks like!

If you live in Wisconsin or in the 6th congressional district of Florida you’ll have a chance to do something the rest of us only dream about doing... [It's also an election day in many other parts of the country, too.] https://robertreich.substack.com/p/if-you-live-in-wisconsin-or-floridas

The Trump administration is committing crimes against humanity right before our eyes. They are disappearing people who are in this country legally and sending them to El Salvadoran prison camps to be tortured. Every official involved deserves nothing less than to be tried at The Hague.

SHOCKER. /s

Wisconsin's Supreme Court race is now the most expensive court race in U.S. history — largely due to donations from out-of-state billionaires. As Justice Louis Brandeis said, we can have great wealth in the hands of a few, or we can have democracy, but we can't have both.

America has never been subject to this level of authoritarianism, and quite frankly, sheer incompetence. Out of the ashes, this moment should radicalize us to embark on an era of new reform — of our economy, our democracy, and our commitment to social justice and the law.

Raskin: I call on my colleagues to take down the wanted posters with judges’ faces on them outside of offices in House office buildings

Just in case you missed this from Illinois Gov. JB Pritzker: "Bullies respond to one thing, and one thing only: a punch in the face."

Project Oligarch end game: Gut the federal government to the point that tariffs will pay for its admin as it did prior to 1913. Get rid of Medicaid and Medicare. Privatize social security and then repeal the 16th amendment eliminating corporate and individual income taxes.

Trump is trying to strip the bargaining rights of roughly 1 million unionized federal workers. He claims it's a matter of "national security." Rubbish. Organized labor is standing up to Trump's authoritarian power grab. Tyrants will do anything to crush dissent.

“The Food and Drug Administration’s top vaccine official, Dr. Peter Marks, abruptly resigned Friday, saying in a searing letter that Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s aggressive stance on vaccines was irresponsible and posed a danger to the public.”

We will not be distracted. We will not be discouraged. We’ve got our eyes on the prize. And we will build the prosperous, free nation for all that we deserve. The time to organize is now. OcasioCortez.com

I would like to nominate Maxwell Smart for national security advisor.
