Price gouging by corporations to maximize profits at record levels for wealthy shareholders are responsible for more than 50% of the inflation we have experienced. Check out the video in @RBReich’s post below for a deeper dive into some examples.
The next time you hear someone blame inflation on stimulus checks that Americans got four years ago or workers finally getting much-needed pay bumps, kindly remind them that corporate profits are at a 70-year-high. Hello?
I think the suggested context in the community note says it all, Mr. Vice President.
Not sure why it's so difficult to give people the full story: detainees were murdered by a sniper, and "anti-ICE" was found on a bullet.
This seems to happen quite a bit with you:
1) "It is a statistical fact that most of the lunatics in American politics today are proud members of the far-Left." Not a statistical fact, not even what the single online poll you cited says.
2) You threatened George Soros' Open Society Foundation based on a lie that they funded a Nation article you didn't like. They did no such thing.
3) You got another community note after accusing the Wall Street Journal of fabricating the existence of Trump's birthday note to Epstein...because Congress obtained the letter.
4) You accused me of not reading a court document that you cited as proof that Kilmar Abrego Garcia is a "convicted MS-13 gang member." He is not, the document didn't say that, and your tweet ended up as evidence in a trial the government lost.
I could go on, but you get the point. Have a blessed day.
@Timcast Pretty sure you’d be crying up a storm on here if Kamala Harris had called you a dipshit on here while in office. But we get it. The hypocrisy is what you live for.
@Dentonandsas@OC_Scanner Not parroting anything. Trump’s FCC Chair (and Trump/MAGA loyalist), who wrote the Project 2025 chapter about how the FCC can exert power & has direct power over media company mergers, threatened ABC/Disney like a mob boss on a podcast. You think he doesn’t have Trump’s blessing?
@momof2kande@OC_Scanner@grok He said it himself on a podcast, so straight from Carr’s mouth. Is that good enough primary sourcing for you to understand?
@momof2kande@OC_Scanner@grok Was my post above accurate? Or did Trump’s FCC Chair, Brendan Carr, not put actual or implied pressure on ABC/Disney about Jimmy Kimmel?
@AdviceSuperflex@OC_Scanner Cool. Just in case you didn’t read the whole thing, I highlighted the key areas for you.
1) His claims happened the evening before the text messages were released, which started to solidify the motive.
2) Where was the “immediate public harm, which caused actual damage”?
@AdviceSuperflex@OC_Scanner Close, but not quite. The FCC regulates broadcast licenses and may revoke them under limited circumstances, but only after due process with evidence and hearings, decided by the Commission or its judges - not royal decree.
Also, for fun - What was the lie you’re so sure of?
@EndWokeness Grok says the rate of Sex Offenders in Churches & affiliated programs is very likely about 2,000 per million. Maybe your outrage is misplaced.

That’s me in the video. And a Fox News host just celebrated me being assaulted by ICE.
If ICE will do this to a congressional candidate with a big platform, just imagine what they’re doing to the people they’re kidnapping.
The suspension of @jimmykimmel and the promise to silence other Late Night hosts for criticizing the administration should disturb everyone on the Right, Left, and Center. It’s wrong and anyone with a conscience knows it’s wrong.
@Bella4Trump@OC_Scanner@DaveMinCA@CongressMin And if you’d like to explain how your Christianity allows you to support a person as flawed and spoiled as Trump - who shows no remorse, while simultaneously being unable to forgive/support Dave Min because he got a DUI and acknowledged his mistakes, I’m all ears.
@KevinKileyCA@Grok How much has the trust fund baby billionaire Charles T. Munger Jr. given or pledged to the No on Prop 50 campaign? Have you seen any evidence of Kevin Kiley complaining about that billionaire’s political donations?
