In my four-year career in the minor leagues, I’ve never taken home over $12,000 in salary from baseball in a year. Minor leaguers are some of the worst-paid workers in America… so I wrote a piece calling for a living wage #MiLB35K washingtonpost.com/opinions/2022/…

The preliminary results of the vote of delegates at state assembly, who were elected by thousands of grassroots Democrats from every corner of the state. I’m a political newcomer who’s dedicated my career to standing up in court for working families. These results would have been unthinkable only a few months ago. In June 2025, my opponent released a poll that had this campaign running at 4%. But we are showing that the people of Colorado aren’t going to allow political consultants and donors to decide who their leaders will be—they’re ready to elect an attorney general with the vision and experience to take on bold and courageous legal fights for the people of Colorado.

I spoke to Anthropic’s AI agent Claude about AI collecting massive amounts of personal data and how that information is being used to violate our privacy rights. What an AI agent says about the dangers of AI is shocking and should wake us up.

JBS is the “big bad” of the beef industry. Alone, they control 25% of the beef processing industry in America. Their profits have soared as beef prices reach a record high cost per pound. Solidarity with the workers as they SHUT DOWN the beef monopoly.
More Perfect Union@MorePerfectUS

Nearly 4,000 meatpacking workers are on strike in Colorado — the first big strike the industry has seen in decades. They work for JBS, an immensely corrupt company that's harming U.S. consumers, and its own workers.

It’s a good day to revisit the message James Talarico shared right away in his campaign announcement:

If Bernie's 5% annual wealth tax on billionaires had been enacted in 2012, Elon Musk would be worth less than $365 billion instead of the $834 billion that he's worth today. He'd still be the wealthiest man alive & every senior would have dental, vision & hearing under Medicare.
More Perfect Union@MorePerfectUS

BREAKING: Today Bernie Sanders is proposing a bill to raise $4.4 trillion in taxes from America’s billionaires — a move that would virtually cut their massive fortunes in half. A chunk of the money would go toward sending a $3K stimulus check to every person earning under $150K.

Bombing Iran in the middle of negotiations, while starving Cuba, while genociding Palestinians, while threatening to invade Greenland… the US and Israel are the single greatest threat to humanity and it’s not even close. We are all forced to live in the nightmare they create.

My take: We have to use the movement energy built around ICE’s brutality and Trump’s fascism speedrun to seed mass workplace organizing. A national economic blackout on May Day, done well, could seed thousands of workplace committees and build a massive organizing wave.

A central question of organizing: How much structure do you need to win? @chactivist makes a compelling case for momentum and learning to win with less structure in a “movement moment.” America is in a movement moment, and our strategy nationally should reflect this.
Chris Brooks@chactivist

If the labor movement hopes to survive, we have to organize the private sector at scale. I was one of the central architects of the UAW’s Stand Up Strike and our national auto organizing push. I shared some of what I learned in this new @jacobin piece 🧵 jacobin.com/2026/02/uaw-vw…

The US siege of Cuba has strangled the island, slashed its electricity output by 50%, and switched the lights off for millions of children and families, homes and hospitals. That is why we are setting sail, and inviting you to join us 🇨🇺. 🔗 nuestraamericaflotilla.org
