I hate corruption, especially when it allows monopolists to continue screwing over consumers. Live Nation/Ticketmaster is an abomination to concert ticketing and should have been broken up. But this corrupt administration always rewards its donors. Join us tomorrow morning!
The Fair Fight with Alvaro & Max@thefairfightpod

Live Nation execs think you're "stupid" and brag about robbing you blind. Then the company gave $500k to Trump's inaugural committee and got a sweetheart settlement of antitrust claims brought by the Biden administration. Join @BedoyaUSA and @MaxMMillerAT tomorrow at 8:45ET/7:45CT right here or over at YouTube to discuss! youtube.com/live/-5oqZmcV-…

Here we go again: This is what war profiteering looks like. Refinery margins are being pushed to the sky again. We need windfall profits taxes for oil extraction and margin caps along the value chain all the way to the gas stations.

Fossil fuel price shocks are redistribution shocks. Last time, we warned windfall profits would benefit the ultra-rich at the expense of everyone else. This time, there is no excuse. The numbers are in. We need windfall profit taxes & multilateral price caps now.

🚨HUGE! CA @AGRobBonta just sued to block the broadcast behemoth Nexstar-Tegna deal. Nexstar pulled Jimmy Kimmel from the airwaves last Sept in exchange for @BrendanCarrFCC’s clearance of the acquisition. The fight against Trump’s corrupt media grab is being led by the states.

Trump Always Chickens Out update: This administration delays a rule protecting American contract chicken farmers from rigged pay systems that the big poultry companies control. The chickening out is now literal. Here's @FarmBureau President Zippy Duvall:

No idea what's going to happen in Illinois tonight, but I think we can safely say that almost $100 million spent in a handful of primaries is a full-spectrum disaster for democracy

The problem, @RepAOC, is it’s not their money. They’re acquiring WBD with funds from foreign governments. Still should pay fair wages, but we all should be clear the WBD acquisition is suspect because Paramount doesn’t have the capital to cover the transaction on their own.
Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez@RepAOC

If Paramount can shell out billions of dollars to acquire Warner Bros. Discovery, then they can pay their unionized CBS staff a fair wage. I stand with the CBS staff who walked out today as they fight these corporate giants for essential protections and fair contracts.

HOLY F: Workday just lost the argument that matters most. A federal judge said their AI hiring tools can be challenged for filtering out applicants over 40. “The algorithm did it” is NOT a defense. If this holds… every company using automated hiring just stepped into legal risk. You’re not crazy... if you’ve applied to 50, 100, 200 jobs and heard nothing… The system itself may be filtering you out. The decision means the plaintiffs may continue pursuing claims that Workday’s technology had a disparate impact on applicants age 40 and older. - SHRM Judge Lin dismissed some California claims and one disability claim, but gave plaintiffs until March 27 to revise and refile.

XPO and FedEx executives have been running USPS into the ground since 2016 (all thanks to Trump) so the companies could remove a public service competitor from the field. It’s a crime, and the people should demand retribution from the people and companies behind this conspiracy.
More Perfect Union@MorePerfectUS

The Postmaster General says USPS might be forced to stop deliveries in 2027 if current trends continue. Postmaster David Steiner says the postal service "will be out of cash in less than 12 months." Steiner has has also been on the board of directors of FedEx since 2009.

@LeeHepner And even worse, because of concentration in markets, a firm is now reduced to pitting their products against their other products because there is no actual competition in consumer markets any more.

We are absolutely NOT collecting "record" revenue. And it should be embarrassing for someone of Haley's stature to say so. Revenue last year was 17% of GDP, DOWN nearly 3% of GDP from 25 years ago. In fact, revenue was higher than in 2025 in 27 out of the last 50 years.
Nikki Haley@NikkiHaley

The U.S. just hit a $1 trillion deficit in 5 months. Government spending hit an all-time high, with $425 billion in interest payments alone. We're collecting record revenue and still can't pay our bills. America doesn't have a tax problem. It has a spending problem.

Andrew Ferguson is the guy Trump just put in charge of attacking blue states over fake allegations of fraud. He is the head antitrust enforcer at the FTC, and he's speaking at a forum for the #1 PR shop for corporate mergers. fgsglobal.com/antitrust-in-a…

Private credit default rate just hit 9.2%. That's higher than 2008 bank loan peaks. $1.8 trillion in assets, $100B in secondary liquidity. 18:1 mismatch. When exits close, panic starts.
