American incomes are decaying. The personal savings rate has collapsed to historic lows. People aren’t spending because they’re thriving — they’re spending because they’re surviving. This isn’t sustainable. The economy is broken for working people.

Q: How long until we see Trump's face on a $250 bill? Bessent: There is proposed legislation to change the requirements so that a living person, Donald J. Trump, could be on the $250 bill. (Is there anyone who wants to see that? In today's economy, who could afford such a thing?)

Our modern Memorial Day began as Decoration Day in 1865, founded by 10,000 newly freed Black Americans in Charleston who built a proper cemetery and held a massive parade for fallen Union soldiers. Remembering its true origin ensures this vital Black history is never forgotten.

Thrift shopping is up 22% because budgets are tight. Traditional retail is down while thrift store traffic soared 25%. This isn't just a fun Gen Z fashion trend. It is a symptom of corporate price gouging forcing regular families into bargain bins just to survive.

Talarico: I'm an eighth generation Texan. I've been eating barbecue since before Ken Paxton's first indictment. And if all they have on me is lying about me being a vegan, I feel pretty good about our chances this November, I feel pretty good about our chances this November.

Reporter: Ken Paxton is calling you 'Talafreako.' Talarico: He just released child rapist Adam Hoffman from jail after his wealthy atty friends got involved. Hoffman was supposed to serve 25 years to life. He served less than a month. The Epstein class has no place in Texas.

For-profit companies pocket massive contracts while neglecting basic human needs. As Rep. Andy Kim points out, GEO Group has a nearly billion-dollar contract for Delaney Hall but provides just one doctor for 800 detainees. This is a choice, not an inevitability.

Rep Rob Menendez NJ: I welcome @SecMullinDHS & Republican colleagues to come to Delaney with me & see the pregnant women, high schoolers & grandparents being detained in abhorrent conditions. They are not criminals. This system is broken & runs counter to our values. Our fight continues.

"I suspect this is going to become a very significant pandemic," warns experts on the Ebola outbreak, noting it will likely "leak into Tanzania... maybe leak into Rwanda." It’s going to be "very disruptive," and we are completely unprepared because we refuse to fund global health.

Fox News out here trying to rebrand ICE as a completely anonymous agency that "no one knew who they were." They think if they say it with a straight face in a stadium, it becomes true. The gaslighting is real, but fortunately, the rest of us actually have memories.

Three children allegedly burglarized two different gas stations in Albany County; the youngest just 10 years old. I stopped by the Sunoco Country Stop & Shop in Altamont where employees showed me what happened on camera. cbs6albany.com/news/local/t...

Indy 500 just finished. Now have the Canadian F1 on. New for me to be watching F1 races. Indy seemed less sophisticated and complex by comparison. Only two brands of cars involved apparently, Honda and Chevrolet.

Donald Trump landed in China expecting the complete full red-carpet treatment ,only to discover Xi Jinping couldn’t even be bothered to show up at the airport In diplomatic terms, that’s not a scheduling conflict; it’s a calculated snub that signals exactly where Trump stands in Beijing’s priorities

History often repeats (if we're not careful). My fantasy fiction audio drama is not escapism. It's pattern recognition and toying with the notion of throwing something in unexpected to stop bad patterns.

If you took a look at the polling in the #NH01 Democratic Primary & saw that one candidate was polling significantly better with Republicans and Independents than the others, would you be surprised to learn that it’s me, the candidate endorsed by Southern NH DSA? #NHPolitics

Last night, the city of Esslingen honored me with the prestigious Theodor Haecker Prize for “extraordinary courage and journalistic integrity” that “has brought to light the influence and crimes of the Russian mercenary group Wagner, in the Central African Republic and in Mali.”

China is our biggest competitor, both economically and militarily. Countries in the Indo-Pacific are stepping up and working with us to counter the threat from China.

Weil es keine Neiddebatte ist, sondern eine um Ungerechtigkeit und Egoismus. Der #Kapitalfaschismus ist das Problem, der für Ablenkung sorgt und die Menschen zum nach unten treten animiert, statt nach oben zu schauen. Und sogar Bürgergeldbezieher können noch auf Flüchtlinge schimpfen. Alles gewollt.
