Jeff Bezos' ex-wife Mackenzie Scott donated two of her homes in LA to charity.
They've since been sold for $55 million, with all proceeds going toward creating affordable housing in California.
A Republican destroys the economy, a Democrat gets elected and fixes it. People forget and vote for a Republican again.
It’s the American business cycle.
Every single cattle farmer in the US is calling out Trump for this.
We're at a stage where Trump blatantly destroys the country for a foreign nation while telling us everything is great.
The accusation that I am antisemitic is appalling and fundamentally dishonest. Criticizing the actions of the Israeli prime minister, a military technology contract, or the executives who supply it is not the same as criticizing Jewish people. This critical and necessary dialogue is then dishonestly framed as being anti-Israel. To be clear, my views come from my own political convictions and should never be interpreted as hostility toward Jewish people, for whom I have deep love and respect. Everything I know about acting, activism, and humanism has been profoundly shaped by the Jewish friends, colleagues, and loved ones who have been integral and family throughout every point of my life.
This merger has real consequences for real people, and for the entire country. Scrutinizing the Ellisons, including Oracle’s business built on data, surveillance technology and government contracts, and the serious threat to editorial freedom and the loss of a livelihood for thousands of families, is fair and necessary. The $111 billion deal would hand one family control over CNN, HBO and Warner Bros., backed in part by foreign money whose influence on editorial decisions has never been fully explained to the public.
Lawmakers on both sides of the aisle have called for serious national security review, and regulators still haven’t given the public a real answer. Until they do, the merger shouldn’t move forward. Now is the time to dive boldly into all these issues, not step back or concede.
Mark Ruffalo's latest attack on the Paramount-Warner Bros. merger slammed the Ellison family's ties to Israel and their role in “what we now have come to see as a genocide” in Gaza.
Ruffalo shared a video of Oracle’s executive vice chair Safra Catz boasting about the company’s efforts to "advance the agenda for the Israeli military" by making "really profoundly scary technology" available to them.
"This is the company that Larry Ellison is using to fund his son David’s Warner Bros acquisition," Ruffalo wrote in a fiery post. "These 'really profoundly scary technologies; will most likely be merged into one of the largest media conglomerates in the world and one day used on you... From one of the biggest tech companies in the world. Powering some of the most destructive and inhuman forces in the world. Why has Trump pushed this illegal merger through? Larry Ellison will own most of 'Para Bros.' Larry is a classic Oligarch. They are crushing workers and consolidating the wealth of the world for their own power and concentrated dominance..."

There's no way to ask this without sounding a bit antisemitic but do orthodox Jews think their god is stupid or something? Do they not fear judgement for attempting to circumvent the rules of god with loopholes? This is a genuine question btw
