The thing is, the impulse to attack the consumer is exactly what corporations want. Now you aren’t mad at the minimum wage or the wage theft. You’re mad at the consumer who didn’t give you five stars.

Police body cam footage shows DOGE knew Institute of Peace was private property during raid Footage obtained by The Handbasket’s lawsuit shows a hostile takeover on March 17, 2025.

You can read about my winning lawsuit with @rcfp.org against DC MPD, and the resulting footage from the DOGE raid on USIP here:

4. Here we see then-USIP staffer John Allen being asked repeated questions by Laken Rapier, a representative of the Trump administration. Allen tells Rapier—a person he did not work for, and who is not law enforcement—multiple times that he cannot answer her questions, but she keeps going.

3. We've heard so much about the way DOGE operated, but rarely have we gotten to actually see it up close. This clip reveals the entitlement Trump's USIP president and the DOGE team felt heading into the privately-owned building on the day of the raid:

2. In this clip we see Trump's guy Kenneth Jackson and DOGE lawyer Justin Aimonetti speak with MPD Commander Jason Bagshaw. Aimonetti shows Bagshaw paperwork supposedly proving Jackson is in charge. "I'm trying to go in as president and take control of the agency," Jackson says.

1. Here's the tense moment when USIP outside counsel George Foote comes face-to-face with Kenneth Jackson, the Trump-installed new president of USIP, and the DOGE team. Jackson refuses to shake Foote's hand. “I’m asking the questions, not you,” Jackson says. DOGE staffers won't ID themselves.

MPD cop: Is it a GSA (General Services Administration) building?
DOGE lawyer: It's not.
Trump's USIP president: Private building, and that's why we need MPD. If it were GSA, it would be very simple.

CPAC Head Says Iranian Schoolgirls Are Better Dead Than “in a Burqa” Leading Republicans don’t seem to care about the bombing of a girls’ school in Iran.

Matt Schlapp has attempted to justify the killing of more than 100 young girls at an elementary school in southern Iran, by claiming they were saved from religious extremism. trib.al/YAcqoab

He’s a piece of shit. There’s only so many times you can “fall for it” within such a short window before you’re not falling for anything except into lockstep.

It was immediately obvious to anyone who was not living under a rock for the last 25 years that bombing Iran was a mistake.

How many times are we going to get a headline that reads "Suozzi: 'I failed'" before he finally stops collaborating with the Trump regime?

EIGHT DOLLARS A GALLON.

Downtown Los Angeles.

Today.

Trump promised to lower gas prices on Day 1. Instead he started a war with Iran and gas in LA just topped $8.

This is sticker shock. This is his fault.

Screenshot of four different jobs from the NY Mag feature about what people make in NYC:
"Home Health Aide
$23,000
I've been a home health aide for ten years. My main patient last year was in Brooklyn. I spent most of my time taking care of her. I worked two days a week, and I was being paid for 13 hours of work each day - my agency, Loyal Home Care, budgets eight hours of sleep and three hours for mealtimes into our wages. But I was basically working 24 hours a day. She was active, and I was worried she would fall, so I would watch her all day and night. This is a pretty common experience for health aides. The agency can deny our overtime, but you can't deny a patient. When they say, "Oh, I need a drink of water; I need to use the bathroom," how could you possibly say "no" to them?
Bronx Day-Care Worker
$31,000
$16,600 from day-care profits
$14,400 from trainings and consulting
Last year, I lost a lot of kids. I live in the Bronx, and a bunch of families in my neighborhood lost their child-care vouchers. We're talking about people who make as much as I do; most of the moms I work with are home health aides. They can't afford full-time child care. If I have 16 kids, I can pay myself for 40 hours of work. But last year, I didn't, and obviously I'm still doing the same amount of work. I've been running the day care out of my home for more than seven years. It's a profession I entered out of necessity and have stayed in out of passion. I pay for everything - food, cleaning supplies, toys - and we have to meet the same requirements as a large company in terms of paying for liability insurance, which can feel pointless in this industry. I mean, if something happens to one of my children, I lose my license. End of story."

you have more in common with a homeless person than *any* member of the gentry. remember that and don't forget it -- class issues and disparities affect movements far, far more than we talk about, particularly within marginalized groups.

Americans are already struggling to pay more from Trump’s tariffs on food and goods. Now his war with Iran has shut down the Strait of Hormuz — the route for ~20% of the world’s oil — sending fuel and shipping costs soaring. Expect higher gas, groceries, flights, and more.

Cosign. If you actually read the Bible, it has nothing whatsoever to say about abortion, but a LOT to say about seeking justice and caring for widows and orphans.

Guess What Moderate Democratic Voters Aren’t Anymore? Moderate. Two new polls suggest that moderate Democrats, too, want higher taxes on the rich and some measure of economic populism. Moderate isn’t what it was in 1992.

Moderate Democrats with columns in newspapers are constantly saying the Democratic Party is way too liberal on "social" issues. Moderate Democratic voters in real life do not feel this way. With some polling data from @gelliottmorris.com and @dataforprogress.org. newrepublic.com/article/2074...
