Crazy. They choose to close stores rather than share some of the wealth with workers to get them to a livable wage. The greed of the ultra rich is astounding. We need to legislate and tax billionaires out of existence.

The biggest driver of educational misinformation today is the EdTech industry. If you believe learning is memorization and recall AI is a thrilling innovation. Our book pushes back against those that want to mechanize learning offering methods to find meaning and community in your learning journey.

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…

YES on CA prop 40, the billionaire tax. NO on props 41 and 42. These are billionaire-sponsored and will kill prop 40 if either of them pass. And soon we need to tax billionaires out of existence so they can stop manipulating our elections with poison pill propositions like this.

The goals for the next No Kings on October 17 are simple: 1) Boost early voting to historic levels. 2) Recruit and prepare our communities to stop election sabotage. We’ve always been headed for this moment where democracy reasserts itself. We’re the ones doing the reasserting — and we will win.
