Yes. @RBReich is right. If the rapid advancement in AI destroys tens of millions of jobs as many Big Tech Oligarchs predict, who will be able to afford to purchase the products they are pushing? The economic gains of AI must benefit humanity, not just a handful of billionaires.
Robert Reich@RBReich

Where will the demand for AI come from if AI erodes what remains of the American middle class and much of the working class? robertreich.substack.com/p/whos-gonna-b…

Trump ousted all three members of the U.S. Election Assistance Commission, a bipartisan agency that works with state officials to ensure free and fair elections. Nice try, Mr. President. We won't let you sabotage the midterm elections. This is a democracy, not a dictatorship.

President Trump: Instead of insulting Europeans, why don’t we learn something from them. In Denmark, for example, everyone is guaranteed healthcare, college education is free, parents receive one year of paid family leave and workers don’t make less than $22 an hour.

Trump: "Spain is a wasted cause. We don't want to do any trade business with Spain anymore, by the way. I'd like to cut it off. Spain is a terrible partner in NATO. Cut off all trade with Spain, please. Including visits. We don't want anything to do. They're hopeless. Bad people."

.@EdMarkey has been my partner in fighting for Medicare for All, ensuring every person earns a living wage and transforming our rigged economic and political systems so that they work for ordinary Americans. That's why I'm endorsing him for his reelection for the U.S. Senate.

After getting the United States into a war based on lies, Trump has now declared the ceasefire with Iran "over" after less than a month. Restarting his reckless war with Iran won't make America stronger. It will cost more lives and waste more taxpayer dollars. END THIS WAR

We need leaders in Congress who understand firsthand the struggles facing working families and are ready to fight for unions, affordable housing, Medicare for All, and an economy that works for everyone, not just the 1%. Let's send @AbdulElSayed to the Senate.
Dr. Abdul El-Sayed@AbdulElSayed

Michigan. Get Ready. July 18 & 19... @BernieSanders, @AOC, and other special guests are joining me on our The People vs. The Powerful Tour in DETROIT, LANSING, and GRAND RAPIDS. Ballots are out, and Election Day is just weeks away. Michigan, you deserve a senator beholden to the people – not corporations, oligarchs, or the establishment. Let's rally. Let's vote. Let's win this.

We have a fundamental choice to make. We can maintain a broken healthcare system that allows insurance companies to make billions by raising premiums by 14%-35% next year. Or we can enact Medicare for All and save the American people $650 billion a year. Which side are you on?

The time for status quo politics and incremental change is over. We need leaders in Congress like Peggy Flanagan who will stand up against the oligarchs and fight for working people. x.com/i/broadcasts/1…

I have spoken with Graham Platner about the best path forward for Maine. In light of these very serious allegations, I have recommended that he step aside.

AIPAC, and other billionaire-funded super PACs, are spending millions to buy the Democratic primaries in Michigan and Minnesota. This is not about Abdul El-Sayed v. Haley Stevens or Peggy Flanagan v. Angie Craig. This is about Abdul and Peggy v. AIPAC and the establishment.

The Big Tech oligarchs want to replace tens of millions of jobs with robots. They want robots teaching our kids. Is this the future we want for humanity?

FOX News wrote a great story on the record-breaking heat wave's impact nationwide, including 22 suspected heat-related deaths in New Jersey. Unsurprisingly for a Murdoch-owned outlet however they “forgot” to mention the underlying CAUSE of the crisis: CLIMATE CHANGE. Pathetic!

At a time when billionaire-funded super PACs are undermining our democracy and buying elections, there is no more important issue than getting Big Money out of our political process.

ARE WE STILL LIVING IN A DEMOCRACY? AIPAC, and other billionaire-funded super PACs, are preparing to spend tens of millions of dollars to defeat Dr. Abdul El-Sayed in the Michigan U.S. Senate race. Why are they so determined to defeat him? As a doctor, he believes in healthcare as a human right. He knows firsthand that our current healthcare system is broken and that we must pass Medicare for All. As a taxpayer, he understands that we should not be spending over a trillion dollars on the military and billions of dollars supporting the genocidal Netanyahu government in Israel. As a supporter of working families, he knows that we have to raise the minimum wage to a living wage and make it easier for workers to join unions. Whether it is AIPAC, AI or crypto, billionaire-funded super PACs will spend unlimited amounts of money to undermine democracy and defeat candidates who stand with working people and challenge their power. We cannot allow them to succeed. And that is precisely why we must do everything in OUR power to elect Abdul in the Michigan Democratic U.S. Senate primary on August 4. They have the money. We have the people. Let’s stand together and win.

Our history books celebrate presidents, generals and billionaires. But how many Americans know about Eugene Debs? A labor leader, anti-war activist and champion of the working class, Debs helped shape this country. It's time we learned about him.

In Trump’s America we can: Give $1 trillion in tax breaks to the top 1% Spend $1.5 trillion on the bloated Pentagon Shell out $100 billion to bomb Iran Provide $31 billion for Israel But we can’t: Enact universal healthcare End child poverty Abolish homelessness Unacceptable.

When I look at the recent progressive victories in Colorado and elsewhere, and the successful organizing campaigns sprouting up across the country, I believe we may be on the brink of the political revolution we have been fighting for.

While working families at home struggle, Trump is flying on a $400 million plane gifted to him by the royal family of Qatar, got $187 million from the UAE for his crypto firm & made billions in real estate deals with the royal family of Saudi Arabia. America first? Really?
