U.S. military spending is set to hit a record $1.5 trillion. Roughly half of defense spending goes to private contractors that routinely price-gouge the government. Meanwhile, the Pentagon has failed EIGHT straight audits. The military industrial complex is cheering right now.

Live Nation execs think you're "stupid" and brag about robbing you blind. But $500k to Trump's inaugural committee got them a sweetheart settlement of Biden-era antitrust claims. Join @bedoyausa.bsky.social and @maxmmiller.bsky.social tomorrow morning! www.youtube.com/live/-5oqZmc...

Our bases are being bombed. Our embassies are under attack. Thousands of Americans are stranded. Innocent Iranians are being murdered. We’re spending $1B a day to wage an illegal war which has resulted in the deaths of 6 US soldiers & injuries to countless others. And where is Trump? Golfing.

Apple & Google removed ICE tracking apps in their app stores. TikTok reportedly suppressed videos criticizing ICE & the shooting of Alex Pretti. Meta blocked Facebook groups tracking ICE & links to a database of agents that the government wants to keep secret. Big Tech is enabling Trump's regime.

Amazon just announced another round of 16,000 layoffs, months after it laid off 14,000 workers. Reminder that Amazon CEO Andy Jassy raked in over $40M in 2024. And Amazon is spending at least $75 million producing and promoting the Melania documentary. The system is rigged.

Elon Musk is a cancer on Tesla, on America, and on the world. But’s it’s not just him. Extreme wealth requires extreme greed, and putting people in a position of power who have the requisite greed produces bad results for all. As they say, “Every Billionaire is a policy failure.”

On the campaign trail, Trump railed against private equity tax loopholes. As president, he's enacted more tax breaks and regulatory rollbacks that benefit the industry — and his war on the IRS has gutted the agency's capacity to audit PE firms. Promises made, promises broken.

Spotify has laid off thousands in recent years, while reportedly paying artists $0.003 per stream. Spotify profits rose 28% in Q3. Its CEO is worth $9.8 billion. It's making money off ICE recruitment ads. Don't you think it's time put a wrap on corporate greed and exploitation?

CEO pay is up 1,085% since 1978, while typical worker pay is up just 24%.  Why do we always hear "we can't afford to pay our workers more" but never "we can't afford to pay our CEO more"?
