Last weekend, my wallet was stolen from my purse at a Trader Joes. Lost credit card. Meantime Leon is demanding $3.00. Says my card doesn’t work. Well, true.
The guardrails are gone.
Corporate money has flooded our elections since Citizens United, but now it's OFF THE CHARTS!
Corporate money is destroying our democracy.
Watch @Rob_Weissman explain what we found in our recent report:
Myself and the team have been working flat out on Espresso Martini for 3 weeks since she got poisoned and lost all power in her body. I have to say I started doubting.
I was wrong. Look at her at the end here. She’s UP again!!!
#BREAKING: Bernie Sanders: “It is not just Trump that people are worried about. As disastrous as his administration is, ordinary people today are hurting. Sixty percent are living paycheck to paycheck. You’ve got a healthcare system which is totally broken and wildly expensive. You’ve got a childcare and educational system in deep trouble. People can’t afford housing. And what is really upsetting is that in the wealthiest country in the history of the world, while the richest people…become much richer, everything being equal, unless we change it, our younger generation will have a lower standard of living than their parents. They will own their first home 12 years later than their parents. That is crazy, and the American people understand that…we need to not only get rid of Citizens United, but we need a government which begins to represent all of us, not just the few.”👊
DHS just spent $1.5 billion in taxpayer dollars to buy two California ICE detention centers from CoreCivic, a company Trump holds stock in.
Follow the money and it runs straight back toward the president’s own portfolio.
Do you get it yet?

A drilling rig fell over and caught fire on the North Slope. Diesel spilled into the tundra. Five months later: no cleanup, no response to our letter.
But sure, tell us again how "safely managed" Arctic drilling will be once there's no environmental review at all. https://t.co/UvWEX82pDr
If you're wondering what unites this right-wing Supreme Court, follow the money.
These justices are willing to abandon decades of precedent to cater to the interests of corporations and dark money groups.
The UN voted 141-8 to adopt a resolution backing a world court opinion that countries have a legal obligation to address climate change.
The US was in the 8, with gems like Russia, Iran, Saudi Arabia, and Belarus. Bad company.
One year ago today, Donald Trump turned MacArthur Park into a stage for political theater — deploying armed federal agents and troops to terrorize a community.
It was never about keeping people safe. It was about intimidation and an abuse of power designed to spread fear.
California will always protect our diverse communities and the spirit that defines the best of this state. We'll NEVER stop fighting for the dignity, rights, and freedom of all Californians.
Disaster aid isn’t a political favor — it’s what Americans are owed when fires, floods, or storms hit. Californians pay the same federal taxes as everyone else. Holding back billions while fast-tracking other states is exactly the kind of retribution Newsom is calling out. Victims shouldn’t pay the price for politics.
Studies now present a striking picture of what happens when private equity firms acquire hospitals and nursing homes: predictable increases in harm and deaths. One landmark study shows: patient deaths up about 11% after such acquisitions.
The Death of Renee Good Has Yet to Be Properly Investigated:
Six months after she and Alex Pretti were shot on the streets of Minneapolis, little has come of the probes into their killings https://t.co/vYCchrDG5n
ICE may have moved off the front page, but it hasn’t stopped. Another man is dead after an encounter with agents, and the administration is still defending detention without bond.
This is why we keep watching, even when the headlines move on. Read today’s Civil Discourse: https://t.co/UGB87DWMIF
At the NATO summit today, Trump claimed the U.S. was under attack from the "Islamic Republic of Japan" and confused Zelensky for Putin.
Let's be honest here: Trump has clearly lost his mind.
Our beautiful national parks are losing out on revenue meant for safety and trail maintenance because the administration is diverting park fees to fund Trump's vanity projects in D.C.
We need answers and receipts on this misappropriation of taxpayer money.
