The president is a political cartoon of corruption come to life, a gaudy grifter who is selling off pardons and lining his pockets, building a golden ballroom and protecting his fellow sex predator elites, all the while regular Americans are suffering and struggling to make ends meet.

Run on *that*

Here is the current Sun. We have major flare players on the southeastern limb and a new AR cresing over the northeastern limb soon.

The most reliable source of enhanced auroral activity is the transequatorial coronal hole which should start affecting us in 4-5 days.

Walmart and McDonald’s are among the top employers of workers who rely on food stamps.

McDonald's CEO raked in $18.2M last year — over 1,000x the company's median employee pay.

Walmart's CEO pocketed $27.4M — 930x the company's median employee pay.

See the problem?

If the Venezuelan sailors were enemy combatants, then the 2nd strike is a war crime.

If the Venezuelan sailors weren’t enemy combatants, then both strikes are criminal murder.

It’s that simple.

No child should go hungry simply because their parents are immigrants. As mayor, I’ll join @newyorkstateag.bsky.social in using every lever of government for the families who fear if they can afford tomorrow’s meals.

Every time a health insurance claim is denied or a premium is increased, a billionaire CEO gets richer.

They don’t have to worry about medical care.

They get the best care money can buy while denying that right to everyone else.

Universal healthcare now.

Like dictators before him, Trump’s road to tyranny is paved with hate.

We will not succumb to the ravings of a venomous president who wants us to hate each other. https://robertreich.substack.com/p/sunday-thought-the-bigot-in-the-oval

At this point, Medicare-for-all is the least we can do. We must start the conversation on a national health system like in Sweden or Norway.

In US, many have no access to quality healthcare at all. And wait times are worse than in our government run healthcare system: the VA.
🚨NEW: A new poll Americans’ support for Medicare For All has intensified to the point where the old attacks may no longer work.

As both parties legislate criticism of socialism, there has been a 50-point shift on a key question in just 6 years.

This is YUGE.

Some in the Democratic Party want to you think we must choose between social justice and economic populism.

Rubbish.

The only path forward is embracing both.

“I don’t want MY taxes supporting disabled people! Let them fend for themselves!”

Many can’t. They can’t work, they can’t get out of bed, they’re completely dependent on caregivers for survival.

Are you saying it’s ok to let them die? Rather than provide social supports?
