Taxpayers are already subsidizing the airlines with billions of dollars in bailouts and subsidies.

Even private jet flights are subsided with your tax dollars.

So yes, it's time to nationalize the airline industry.

Pay attention to who the far-right actually fears.

That's who we should be supporting.

The Pentagon is now telling members of Congress that it needs $80 billion to cover costs from the Iran war, plus other non-war-related bills.

Pentagon leaders say they could start running out of money for operations this summer unless Congress passes a new wartime spending bill.

NEW: The DEA permitted hundreds of thousands of fentanyl pills to hit the streets of New Mexico in bid to build prosecutions

“We poisoned our community to make cases,” DEA Agent David Howell tells @AP

An LAPD union director’s daughter killed someone and then claimed the stress gave her “Irritable Bowel Syndrome.”

She was able to retire from the LAPD at 31 with a disability pension—that we will be paying.

The Pentagon is the only place in America where you can fail 8 audits in a row, admit you’ll fail the next few & still get handed more money than you asked for.

But let a family need help buying groceries and suddenly it’s a lecture about hard work, responsibility & bootstraps.

Trump's family crypto business is expected to soon be allowed to operate like a bank — a decision, made by the Trump administration, that would give U.S. companies a new route to steer money to the president.

[Warren Gunnels @GunnelsWarren]

Apple is a $4.35 trillion corporation. It made $112 billion in profits last year & paid its CEO, who's already worth $2.9 billion, $74 million in compensation. In the past 3 years, it's spending $310 billion on stock buybacks.

Don't cite inflation. Cite the damn corporate greed.

[James Talarico @jamestalarico]

When we win, the first bill I’m filing is a comprehensive anti-corruption package:

Overturn Citizens United
Ban corporate PACs and super PACs
Ban members of Congress from trading stocks

Once we defeat the most corrupt politician in America, we can defeat this corrupt system.

"Iran [has] generated more revenue from oil sales each day than it did before the first U.S. and Israeli attacks in late February, according to the data... The country had more income from oil sales in May, the third month of the war, than in January." https://t.co/HkvPdLODB6

NEW: the US government intervened Monday on behalf of xai in a lawsuit over its gas turbines, claiming that the company needs to run the turbines in order to power Grok, which is "vital" for national security

MAGA will be remembered as the most embarrassing political phenomenon ever to stain the history of America, just a gutter movement that elevated the worst, dumbest, most vile among us

Trump inherited at least $413 million from his daddy and still managed to bankrupt multiple casinos. He would have a higher net worth today if he just left his money in the S&P 500. But he sits there in all his unearned mediocre privilege attacking migrants who came from nothing.

Taxpayers paid for over $38 billion in subsidies and government contracts for Space X, and Elon Musk gets to be a trillionaire off of our tax dollars.
