Amazon announced 14,000 layoffs. Its CEO made over $40M last year.

UPS announced 48,000 layoffs. Its CEO made over $24M last year.

Intel announced 20,000 layoffs. Its new CEO's pay package is valued at nearly $69M.

This is what I mean when I say the system is rigged.

The International Criminal Court (ICC) has stated that the US air strikes on “alleged” drug smuggling boats will be treated under international law as crimes against humanity.

ICE got caught keeping people in rooms so crowded & filthy a federal judge had to walk in herself & see it & was so disgusted they placed court orders to change it. People sleeping on concrete next to overflowing toilets. No phones, lawyers or food. No water. In Broadview IL.
This is happening now.

Our country took hundreds of young men from Venezuela, including many asylum seekers, and put them into a torture prison in El Salvador. Incredible reporting and portraits from the NYT on what they suffered (gift link) www.nytimes.com/2025/11/08/w...

Hey everyone, early heads up, @50501oc.bsky.social is planning a boycott for Black Friday weekend through Cyber Monday, and I’ll be joining in. Feel free to participate and send a message to corporations who continue to bend the knee to fascism!

I always find it interesting how the story changes when a lawyer gets to court. They can say anything they want outside of court without accountability but the rules are vastly different in court where you can get seriously penalized for lying.

ICE isn't rounding up criminals. They're rounding up our neighbors.

Can we get a damn data privacy/digital civil rights bill passed? Congress has held over 50 hearings about big tech, social media harms, data extraction, surveillance, and NO bills have passed.

The same people who think buying junk food with SNAP benefits is “abusing the system” are fine with wealthy parents using vouchers to send their kids to private schools.

Prime example of white privilege in plain sight.

Black kids get called adults to justify blame, while white adults get called “kids” to excuse their hate. They’re not boys and girls, they’re grown-ass men and women, and the receipts are in writing.

It costs ~$70 to produce a year’s supply of insulin.

Yet, the average annual cost of insulin went from $2,864 in 2012 to $5,705 in 2016 to $18,000 in 2025. A 25,714% markup. That isn’t inflation or supply chain—It’s corporate greed.

Now—California will sell insulin for $11. Make this nationwide!

On Saturday October 18th, I’m asking you to attend the No King’s March in your local communities. We have witnessed the increasing authoritarianism and its policies in our country. We dissent.

The most powerful force in American politics today is anti-establishment rage at a system that’s rigged against most people.

Democrats should ignore the carping of corporate-backed Wall Street Democrats and embrace Zohran Mamdani and other young progressives as the future of the party.
