As Amazon looks to buy WB with the feds’ approval, it’s worth remembering that Amazon is fresh off an FTC settlement over deceiving customers, faces a separate antitrust suit and has faced hundreds of complaints over exploiting workers.
Those ballroom donations sure make sense!

Two years ago, Hollywood workers went on strike to protest exploitation and the risks AI poses to creative jobs.
This week, Amazon justified 14k layoffs on AI grounds as it seeks to free up $$$ to acquire Warner Bros.

Amazon buying Warner Bros isn’t just a disaster for competition and media: It’s a disaster for workers. Amazon’s monopoly is underpinned by its merciless exploitation of its workforce.

Today, Defense Secretary Hegseth deployed an aircraft carrier and its strike group to the waters off South America. This further escalates the risk of the U.S. getting dragged into a regime change war in Venezuela.

Help us make this make sense:
1. Trump releases an AI Action Plan requiring the government to only use "neutral, nonpartisan tools"

It's just not true that Rep. Thomas Massie & @rokhanna.bsky.social's bill to release the Epstein files exposes the victims. The bill has specific language protecting them.
