I know Rahm Emanuel. I worked with him for years in the Clinton administration, and then when he was Obama’s chief of staff. Rahm Emanuel represents everything that’s been wrong about the Democratic Party for the last 30+ years. Be warned. robertreich.substack.com/p/the-rahm…

Ospreys are disappearing along the US East Coast due to a shortage of Atlantic menhaden, a crucial food source for ospreys. One company alone harvested nearly 300 million pounds of the fish in 2024 but somehow claims they’re not at fault. 🧐

Ospreys are disappearing along the East Coast. Scientists think they know why.
At the center of a widening crisis for one of the nation's great wildlife comebacks is a fish most Americans would hardly recognize.

You know, if you *really* cared about the wellbeing of women in college, instead of carping about the statistically insignificant number of trans athletes in sports minding their own business, you’d be railing against these Cornell fraternity cretins who drugged and gang-raped a passed-out women:

Pricey? “The Lectric XPedition2 costs $1,399 which is admittedly much more expensive than an entry-level non-electric bike.” You can’t get an EV in the US for less than $30k! Also, a decent non-electric bike will set you back at least $2k.

I noticed that the New York Times, which I unsubscribed to when they solf-sold Trump, has changed its policy on "gift" articles. You used to be able to read them. Now the NYT tells you: "Someone gifted this article to you. You must allow us to harvest your email address to read it." Ur, no. Go away.

The amount of Amazon workers relying on SNAP and Medicaid has nearly tripled since 2020 — while Amazon’s annual profits soared by over 550%. It’s the same story everywhere: corporate profits are at record highs, while workers’ share of the economy is at a record low. We must unrig the system.

DoorDash spent $1.4M trying to stop Zohran Mamdani from becoming mayor. This week's historic $131.5M enforcement action against DoorDash for underpaying NYC delivery workers shows why. Yet another reminder that the only thing that can beat organized money is organized people.

Maybe it’s just me, but the media blackout against the orange felon is in fact power over him and entities like CNN, MSNOW, Politico and more should really consider doing it permanently. He craves the constant coverage so don’t give it to him, ever again.

Last week I called up a stranger, an environmentalist who didn't vote. She was 82, couldn't drive to the polls anymore, and didn't know Maine now lets any voter sign up to get a mail ballot automatically for every election. I explained how. She was thrilled. "Take yourself to lunch!" she cried.

If they deserve to be impeached — and so many of them do — then the House should impeach them. Maybe the Senate won‘t convict but it’s still worth the effort to remind people that laws still exist and that Democrats still defend it. Also, as noted here, make ‘em sweat.
