Five corporations control 90% of the US media market.

Airlines merged from 12 major carriers in 1980 to 4 today.

Four giants control 80% of meat processing.

A handful of companies control the pharmaceutical industry.

The evidence of corporate concentration is everywhere.

I strongly suspect "sensitive national security information" is being used advisedly here as opposed to "classified" information, which would be against the law for Bolton to possess in documentary form or to divulge from memory.

The Department of Justice hired a former Jan. 6 defendant who was caught on tape urging rioters to "kill" police. The department calls him a "valued member" of the administration.

Less than 30 days before the end of the fiscal year and using workaround procedural moves DEED/ state board of education wants to force school districts like Anchorage and Juneau to cut millions that have already been spent on schools.

Oh hell no.
If you're following Commissioner Deena Bishop's attempted $15 million grab from ASD, here's a thing. A cease and desist from Alaska’s own public education fire-breathing dragon Löki Gale Tobin and Rep. Himschoot. Wouldn’t want to be a DEED employee right now. 👀 #akleg

You should have asked him how the SAVE Act does not violate the 19th Amendment: “The right of citizens of the United States to vote shall not be denied or abridged by the United States or by any State on account of sex.” If men don’t have to provide the same documentation, it’s gender discrimination

The top five egg producers own roughly half of all U.S. laying hens.

The biggest of those corporations is Cal-Maine, which just announced quarterly profits of $509 million — more than 3x what it made a year ago.

Corporate concentration + bird flu = a price-hiking free for all.
