Reminder that Starbucks’ CEO made 6,666x more than the company's median employee in 2024.

Now, Starbucks is lifting a cap on the CEO's use of a private jet to commute from California to Seattle.

It's been four years since Starbucks stores began unionizing and workers still don't have a contract.

Here's the thing, Greg — free speech is still protected by the First Amendment under the Constitution.

If you want folks to stop saying you're the secret police who are kidnapping and killing people, maybe stop acting like the secret police who are kidnapping and killing people.

If we go on strike, our union of 12,000 workers are calling on customers to NOT BUY STARBUCKS.

A worker making $50,000 a year contributes to Social Security on 100% of their income.

A CEO making $20 million a year contributes to Social Security on less than 1% of their income.

Instead of raising the retirement age, we should scrap the Social Security tax cap.

What a sick and evil individual. The Trump regime's comments in the past few days should be viewed as one of the greatest scandals of our time.

Watch. If you claim one of these to get a vaccine, they’ll use it later as a preexisting condition to crank up your health premium or kick you off your plan.

#ICYMI: Robert F. Kennedy Jr. wants to overhaul an obscure but vital program that underpins the nation’s childhood immunization system.

“If (Kennedy’s) unstated goal is to basically destroy the vaccine industry, that could do it," one expert said.

Delta’s AI pricing is threatening the personal privacy of consumers.

One of the most cynical parts of Trump’s budget?

Tax cuts for the wealthy kick in next year.

But the gutting of Medicaid and SNAP is delayed until after the midterms.

They’re betting you’ll take a few bucks now—and forget they gutted your healthcare later.

Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz after touring "Alligator Alcatraz": "These detainees are living in cages. The pictures you've seen don't do it just. They are essentially packed into cages. 34 detainees per cage...they get their drinking water & they brush their teeth where they poop, in the same unit"

Trump is urging SCOTUS to let him fire three Democrat-appointed members of the Consumer Product Safety Commission.

The CPSC regulates safety of everyday consumer products.

Guess who recently sued the agency and claimed that it's "unconstitutional"?

Amazon.

Connect the dots.

I don’t think anyone is prepared for what they just did w/ ICE.

This is not a simple budget increase. It is an explosion - making ICE bigger than the FBI, US Bureau of Prisons, DEA,& others combined.

It is setting up to make what’s happening now look like child’s play. And people are disappearing.
