Packed house for @linamkhan at Crooked Con.

Lively discussion with @TVietor08 on the need to fight corporate power to lower costs, empower workers, and stop authoritarianism--and her work co-chairing @ZohranKMamdani's transition.

The Trump Admin has the money to fully fund SNAP & instead is intent on withholding that funding for their political games.

I’m disappointed by the Supreme Court’s decision but will do everything in my power to ensure residents have access to food.

Get in, we’re winning in ‘26.

[Andrea Joy Campbell @AJCampbellMA]

It’s hard to put into words what it means to see a president work this hard to keep food from hungry Americans. Millions of children, seniors, and families are paying the price for his cruelty.

But I do know this: I’m not done, and I’ll keep fighting.

The message from the Trump regime could not be any clearer:
If you do not obey, you will not eat.
If you go hungry, you are not worthy.

This is the logic of every dictator who starved his people into submission—the method to turn suffering into strategy.

This psycho behavior. The money is there. Just feed the Americans you absolute maniacs.

In response to a request from Donald Trump’s Justice Department, corporate lobbies are advising the administration to abolish consumer protections on matters including data privacy, children’s online safety, and predatory banking practices. https://t.co/5YNMhvT84s

"The thing about consolidation is that it's like leaving a loaded gun around for political leaders to use."

Following the Jimmy Kimmel saga, @matthewstoller lays out how consolidation threatens our democracy -- and why political action is overdue on @VelshiMSNBC👇

People keep asking, “What can we do?” Our podcast guest Hardy Merriman studies resistance movements and has many suggestions:

[David Seligman @daveyseligman]

We need to elect Democrats who are ready to stand up to the corporate power and influence profiting off of our communities. I am running for Attorney General to do just that. #copolitics

[Zephyr Teachout @ZephyrTeachout]

I’m organizing a symposium on “Antitrust Law and Oligarchy: The Intersection of Markets, Democracy, and Power,” fri October 10, at Fordham Law. Join us with @LtGovDelgado, @linamkhan, @zingales, @ProfGuyCharles, @dohamekki, @saalevine and more! RSVP here: https://t.co/Q9oNqAjgvB

A new poll suggests economic populism is the broadest bridge to take democratic socialist ideas into the US mainstream: strong support for messages on wages, costs, corruption, and reining in corporate power cut across partisan and demographic divides. https://t.co/DldYyEHoqM

[Alvaro Bedoya @BedoyaUSA]

When I voted this out at the FTC alongside Chair @linamkhan and Commissioner @RKSlaughterFTC, I heard that some in corporate America were aghast that we would seek to hold these executives individually liable. Now, a judge has agreed with us and the staff litigating the case.

This is exactly what I think JCA meant when he told me at yesterday’s presser they need to attack as a team, getting everyone involved. Gorgeous build up, great assist, clinical finish.

[AG Andrea Joy Campbell @MassAGO]

Faced with our lawsuit, the Trump Admin has rightly decided to release $184 million in funding that helps Mass. residents serve their communities.

Our lawsuits are working, and we won’t stop fighting to hold the federal government accountable when they harm our residents.

[David Seligman @daveyseligman]

Boiling the planet to build the robots that will decide my mom can’t get a medical treatment—all for the profits of some broligarch. We must attack the unholy alliance between Trumpism and Big Tech.

With almost 80% of doctors now working for corporate entities, @OliviaWKosloff breaks down why we need independent doctors.

"Corporate-owned physician practices, especially private equity-owned ones, tend to have a higher cost of care with no benefit to quality."
