Can't stop thinking about Elon Musk, the wealthiest man alive worth $828 billion, spending $290 million to elect Trump, becoming $563 billion richer since Trump was elected and ending humanitarian aid that will lead to the deaths of 4.5 million of the poorest kids on the planet.

The union workers who make San Jose run are having a hard time getting the attention of their Mayor. Time to go home and settle this contract @MattMahanSJ

The price of the cancer drug Keytruda is $210,000 in the U.S. This same drug can be purchased in Japan for less than $38,000. If the U.S price of Keytruda dropped by 500% it would mean it would not just be free, but cancer patients would be paid $840,000 to take it. How bizarre.
Aaron Rupar@atrupar

Trump: "We're getting drug prices down by 400, 500 percent. Or depending on the way you want to phrase the question, you could say 600 percent, and you could also say 80 percent, 70 percent, etc. It all depends on the way you phrase the question. I like the 500 better."

Since Trump’s election: Elon Musk got $500 billion richer Larry Page got $177 billion richer Sergey Brin got $176 billion richer Jeff Bezos got $70 billion richer Mark Zuckerberg got $16 billion richer Larry Ellison got $11 billion richer It’s time to tax their obscene wealth.

Anytime someone accuses AOC of doing "photo ops," it's a giant giveaway that they do nothing besides post. Labor organizers *want* prominent politicians taking pictures on their strike lines. It attracts attention and puts pressure on the boss. Political and media outreach is a crucial part of any union effort.
The Banterweight Contender 🍉@SayItAintVeeSo

It's a photo-op. That Tax the rich dress didn't do a damn thing.

Can’t stop thinking about how Trump promised to cap credit card interest rates at 10% and all we got is his chief economist proclaiming how great it is that Americans are maxing out credit cards with 30% interest rates all while Jamie Dimon made $770 million. JP Morgan first!
The Bulwark@BulwarkOnline

Kevin Hassett: "The consumer is really, really firing on all cylinders…Credit card spending is through the roof. They're spending more on gasoline, but they're spending more on everything else too."

A truly charming portrait of a MAGA-supporting, guestworker reliant California Grower, with quite the take on the Trump wage cuts for farm workers. “People should be paid what they’re worth.” Good reporting by @aacaldwellLA — can’t believe growers say this crap on the record.

The same billionaires underpaying us are funding fear, division, and war. We’re saying NO to all of that and demanding the MONEY, POWER, & RESPECT we’re owed!

Dude: Bezos is raising $100 billion to replace every factory and warehouse worker in America and the world with robots, not just at Amazon, everywhere. Amazon has a job turnover rate of 150% and his workers have to pee in bottles instead of bathrooms. Find a new talking point.
Peter Schiff@PeterSchiff

@SenSanders Yes, but Bezos employs over 1.5 million people at Amazon. That’s a lot of jobs he created, even after some layoffs. How many jobs have you created? For all the value Bezos has provided his customers and employees, he deserves a yacht. What value have you provided to anyone?

Puebla, May 5, 1862. A republic defeated a monarchy. Mexican peasants defeated the elite of the French infantry. The New World defeated the Old. Don’t forget the reason for the season! ¡Feliz Cinco de Mayo! 🇲🇽⚔️🇫🇷

Been working full time on Jackie Elward’s Assembly campaign, so I haven’t been posting here like I should. We’ve built real momentum, people power, strong endorsements, and a path to win. But we still need to close the funding gap.
