Apple: ~$2.2 billion Nike: $986 million FedEx: ~$800 million Amazon: $640 million General Motors: $500 million Giant corporations are raking in millions in tariff refunds and getting even richer. But remember: corporations passed tariff costs on to you. Where's YOUR refund?

Criminal slumlord Jared Kushner’s corrupt $5B resort plan in Albania has all but effectively collapsed after the country froze all of his assets that are tied with his money laundering project. Good. Well done to the Albanian people who refused to see this happen.

I want my grandchildren to have the same kind of experiences I had as a child—hearing the deep breathing of an Orca, seeing the beauty of a snowcapped Mt. Rainier, searching for crabs under rocks on the beach. That’s what keeps me in this work. ethos-project.org/2026/07/02/j...

Good morning. Just a friendly reminder that Ghislaine Maxwell is currently protected, enjoying pampering and puppy time while America's service members are forced to drink diseased water, eat rotten meat, and huff air infested by mold. She does yoga while they choose drowning.

Sen. Mark Kelly (D-AZ) about USS Abraham Lincoln: "What's worse is the Sec. of Defense's response dismissing it like it's no concern at all. I think a fundamental part of leadership is trying to improve the lives of the people you're leading, and he doesn't want there to be any accountability"

If all income in excess of $400,000 were subject to the Social Security payroll tax, Social Security’s solvency would be guaranteed forever. We could also expand Social Security benefits. There’s no reason even to consider reducing Social Security benefits or raising the age of eligibility.

Americans are relearning the lesson we learned during the Gilded Age of the late 1890s, when robber barons ran the government and the economy for their own benefit: Oligarchy is incompatible with the common good. I'm hopeful we'll respond with a new progressive movement.

The Brown v. Board ruling happened 72 years ago today. The reversal of the Supreme Court’s previous “separate but equal” decision highlights how it’s possible to overcome bad SCOTUS decisions. But it took years of activism from brave people to get there. Keep fighting.

Two photos. Same room. Same flags. Same astronauts. In one, the President stands with them, smiling, centered, human. In the other, the President sits scowling, rambling, diminished. Four astronauts. Two presidents. And the faces tell you everything.
A tale of 4 astronauts, and 2 presidents, and faces that tell a story.

They paused Oversight Committee hearings the minute we started getting answers about the Epstein files. Now it’s “roundtables”: no rules, no oaths, no subpoenas. You do the math. Because the moment accountability shows up, they shut it down. The survivors deserve better.
