NEW THIS WEEK: Are you watching the harm coming to activists and marginalized people on our streets at the hands of Trump and ICE, and wondering if you might be next? Are you afraid to take action to stop fascism because you are afraid you might be at risk? youtu.be/2EAcP9FgnYw

The DOJ policy about not commenting on ongoing investigations sure has lost any authority, hasn’t it?

Forever hotter than the sun. RIP Robert Redford.

I have reached an odd point with their threats, which are the same threats they’ve always made, and that is that they are going to do what they are going to do. There is a point at which it all becomes noise. We have the option to decide whether to be terrified into submission, or take action.

Today at 11 am ET, we're talking about the effect of the Iran war on oil and gas prices and the economy as the stock market tanks, Trump's comments on a ground war, no he isn't reinstating the draft, what's happening with Cuba, & way more. Join us live or on the replay. youtube.com/live/HCOMNYx...

Keep 'em coming.

Were they wearing a suit when they asked? Did they express sufficient gratitude?

Over/under on how long it takes until trading halts this morning on the Dow? 🥴

New level of hell: just learned through local networks that visitors to the Delaney Hall concentration camp in Newark NJ are being turned away due to "dress code violations." A teen whose mom has been detained there for five months was turned away last week for wearing a top with spaghetti straps.

Tomorrow is going to be a disastrous day in the markets. Buckle up.

Gas was already way above $3 a gallon here on Friday.

YIKES.

Someone told me a few weeks ago that I would have a bigger following if I just did “news as entertainment for likes and ad revenue” and I gotta say there is little that enrages me more than people who jack the central nervous systems of others for profit, let alone when there are solutions on offer.

The thing about lying for likes and attention is that it flips people into freeze mode so they don’t take action. Intentionally inflaming people with faulty information is collaboration with fascism, even when it comes from someone purportedly on the left.
