Rep. Robert Garcia, the top Democrat on House Oversight, just put the Trump sons' Pentagon windfall on the record: "his sons are cashing in on defense contracts funded by hardworking taxpayers." He's forcing an inspector general to investigate. 🔗 www.dworkinsubstack.com/p/one-fired-...

Microsoft is laying off 4,800 workers today. Its CEO made $96.5M in 2025, a 22% increase from the previous year. Microsoft made $101B in net income last year — and raked in up to $12.5B in tax breaks from Trump's Big Ugly Bill. This is what a rigged system looks like.

Fuck Microsoft. The strategy of constantly buying up studios and then doing mass layoffs because those studios didn't meet exec's high expectations is not sustainable. "The line must go up" is not sustainable.

Alabama’s Tommy Tuberville hedges on whether he kept his campaign promise to veterans
All of the available evidence leaves little doubt that the GOP senator simply did not do what he said he would do.

Trump was emulating Teddy Roosevelt lately. He never mentioned Roosevelt’s famous quote… "To announce that there must be no criticism of the President, or that we are to stand by the President, right or wrong, is not only unpatriotic and servile, but is morally treasonable to the American public."

“Early this morning in Crown Heights, Detective Robert Carroll was shot in the line of duty. I visited Detective Carroll at the hospital today, and I’m grateful his bulletproof vest protected him from more serious injury. I’m keeping him and his loved ones in my thoughts as he recovers.

I’m thankful to Detective Carroll and every member of the NYPD working to keep New Yorkers safe through a busy holiday weekend.

Every New Yorker deserves to come home safely at the end of the day. My administration will continue using every tool available to stop the scourge of gun violence and get illegal guns off our streets.”

While I'm a big fan of USA winning a soccer match,I'm very disturbed that our POTUS has put his thumb on the scale. If the U.S. does win the match, the rest of the world will see us as cheaters forever. Referees' decisions are checked during a game, not undone afterward.Sorry if this offends anyone.

Last night in Coney Island, eight people — including four children — were shot when a family barbecue was shattered by an unconscionable act of gun violence. Coney Island is a neighborhood where generations of New Yorkers come together every summer to celebrate the Fourth of July, making this mass shooting all the more heartbreaking.
My heart is with every person who was injured, their loved ones, and the entire Coney Island community. I am wishing each of the victims a full and speedy recovery.
No parent should have to fear taking their child to a family barbecue. No child should ever have to experience the trauma of gun violence.
Our administration is committed to taking an all-of-government approach to public safety and to protecting every New Yorker.
