George H.W. Bush kept his assets in a blind trust, as did Bill Clinton. Neither Obama nor Biden traded stocks or bonds while in office. 3,700 trades is probably more than all the trades of all the presidents until now. And he is trading stocks that are affected by his decisions. A walking conflict of interest, at the least, and perhaps insider trading. Just as members of Congress should not be able to trade stocks, so too the president. https://t.co/yDqVXWfDgc

It's time to nationalize the airlines.

Air travel is a public good, and taking the profit out of the system would mean cheaper flights and cheaper shipping.

Nationalization would also mean the public air service would be bound to serve the whole country, like the post office.

Right now taxpayers are already subsidizing the airlines via billions of dollars of bailouts and subsidies. We deserve a say in how they are run.

Let's make airlines work for us instead of padding the pockets of billionaires.

The U.S. Air Force has agreed to buy drones from Powerus, a company backed by Donald Trump’s sons.

The shameless duo have said that they are private businessmen despite their profiteering from wars created by their dad.

Powerus is the the third defense company backed by the Trumps that has been awarded Pentagon contracts. Foundation Future Industries received a $24 million contract from the Pentagon and Vulcan elements received a $10 million dollar one.

This is Hunter Biden on steroids.

Youth sports shouldn't be a ripoff. I'm proud to lead this fight in Congress to take on corporate power. Let. Kids. Play.

Sports is for everyone and no one should be priced out of it because of greedy corporations who want to price gouge you for everything you have

Jack White on Trump depicting himself as Jesus Christ in a new meme:

"Hey evangelical Christians? Remember that anti-Christ you been squawking about all these years and how he'd present himself as Christlike and bring about the end of days with a final war in the Middle East involving Jerusalem? Well...check out your boy now!

"Listen, if the felonies, epstein files, rapes, bombing of schoolchildren, gestapo ICE agents attacking his own citizens, threatening to invade Greenland, Cuba, Venezuela and Iran all didn't convince you that you fell for this deranged grifter, maybe this lil' post will? How can any so called Christian support him after this blasphemy? How could any Catholic support him after he attacks the character of their Pope multiple times? How did so many millions of people fall for this conman? He's already got worst President in the history of America on lock, but I'm gonna go ahead and take the honor of pronouncing trump 'Worst American of All Time.'

"P.S.: after some backlash (looks like SOME christians actually take their own religion seriously) trump is now saying that this AI image depicts him as a doctor for the Red Cross! He lies, then lies about the lie, then doubles down on that lie with another lie and they Just. Keep. Falling. For. It."

Wildfire season is weeks away.

The West is in record drought.

And the Trump administration just announced it is shutting down 57 of the 77 Forest Service research stations that tell us how bad it is going to get and what to do about it.

We already know how this ends.

When Trump moved the Bureau of Land Management out of Washington in his first term, 87 percent of the staff quit rather than relocate. The same thing is happening here. Scientists are not going to uproot their families and abandon university partnerships. They are going to leave.

And when they leave, decades of data, research, and institutional knowledge walk out the door with them.

The Forest Service oversees 193 million acres. It lost nearly 6,000 employees to DOGE cuts in just the first half of last year. Now it is gutting the research operation that tells land managers what is actually happening to those forests in real time.

California alone is losing six research facilities, right before fire season.

There is no version of this that makes the forests safer, the science stronger, or the taxpayer better off.
