Beware the bipartisan 'hero'. In times of rising authoritarianism, they are a seductive ruse.

The 100 lowest-paying US corporations spent $644B on stock buybacks from 2019 to 2024.

Buybacks artificially boost share prices and inflate CEO pay.

The typical worker at these companies earned $35k last year.

Meanwhile, the average CEO was paid $17.2M

See the problem?

Q: "Do you have a sense why the Secretary of Defense seems to be afraid to interact with journalists?"

Mike Johnson: "I reject that premise. Fear is not part of the Secretary of War's make up."

There was an incredible turnout across small-town USA! Many events weren’t even on our radar. Our coalition initially tracked around 3,000 events, but the number has now surged past 4,000 and counting.

A diverse group of people walks through large trees in the Symphony Woods area of Columbia, MD. A central figure carries a large American flag. Others carry signs protesting the administration and GOP.

ICE just kidnapped my friend’s neighbor. They live the next town over. She’s shaken up but recorded the incident from a safe distance.

She couldn’t intervene because no one else was outside and it’s not safe as a Black woman to do so alone. Scary times, man.

Ok, old White ladies are not fucking taking it and, as one of them, I am all in. I was one year from menses when R v W happened. If you know or care anything abt history, look at the arc of the“ Joneses” generation’s lives. Seriously? We are DONE w this shit.

Laurasaurus @laurasaurus.bsky.social · 2d

It’s kinda funny how there were people posting about how you must cover your face and leave your phone at home and shit and there was a lady right up in front of the stage in Philly with a giant sign saying “THE PENALTY FOR TREASON IS DEATH.”

Cancel SPOTIFY.

They are running ICE ads.

F them.

Is Spotify running ICE recruitment ads? Here are the facts

The advertising "is part of a broad campaign the US government is running" across various platforms — not just Spotify, a spokesperson told Snopes.
