Apple is a $4.35 trillion corporation. It made $112 billion in profits last year & paid its CEO, who's already worth $2.9 billion, $74 million in compensation. In the past 3 years, it's spending $310 billion on stock buybacks. Don't cite inflation. Cite the damn corporate greed.

So let me get this straight, I go to the grocery store and buy a pound of sliced ham in a plastic bag, a loaf of bread in a plastic bag, a gallon of milk in a plastic jug, a pack of napkins in plastic wrap, a store-made salad in a plastic 1 tub, a plastic bottle of mustard and ketchup, but they won’t give me a plastic bag to carry at home because the plastic bag is bad for the environment?

Over 470 hospitals wards, clinics, and nursing homes have shut down after Trump and Republicans cut healthcare funding by over $1 trillion.

Thanks to Trump and his “Big Beautiful Bill,” student loan payments will go up as much as $4,000 a year starting July 1st. While billionaires get massive tax breaks, working people will be defaulting on their debts. Unacceptable.

Sen. Raphael Warnock, who is also a pastor, calls out Speaker Johnson for saying he prayed for Trump’s “Big Beautiful Bill” to pass: “I don’t understand how you pray for your neighbor, and then prey on your neighbor with policies that literally crush the poor.”

Louisiana is arresting homeless people and forcing them to work. Slavery by another name

#BlackPeople we have found our team to cheer for during the #FIFAWORLDCUP . The Congo DR team arrived in Houston understanding the assignment!

It was so crowded trying to get to the Knicks parade today I couldn’t even get OUT of the subway station for almost 30 minutes.

Barack and I never did anything alone. Through two national campaigns, eight years in the White House, and in all the years since, we had an incredible team backing us up and pushing us forward. It was such a joy to be back together with so many of the alumni who’ve supported us over the years. We’ll forever be grateful for their work, and our country is better off thanks to their service. We love you. 💗

The Obama Presidential Center is finally opening! Tune in today on Obama.org starting at 11am CT as Michelle and I share what this moment means to us and celebrate with friends, family, and members of the community in Chicago.

The Trump FBI conducted a massive raid targeting a voter registration group in NE Ohio. The FBI used hundreds of agents, in an election year, even going to people’s homes. Voting is a constitutional right – so we need answers. I’m demanding details from the FBI.

ICE has revised its rules to say that detainees who work in custody aren't even required to get $1 per day, after a request from private prison giant Geo Group. Geo Group also asked ICE to remove lines saying contractors needed to follow state and local laws around the treatment of detainees, asked ICE amend language to support its legal position in these cases, and asked that the standards specify that detainees are not employees of the facilities where they work. In addition to removing the dollar per day minimum, ICE's new national standards complied with several of Geo Group's other requests, for instance the document now says detainees are not employees “and are not entitled to wages or benefits under applicable wage laws or labor regulations.” washingtonpost.com/business/…

This should be the first place any conversation around reparations starts.

Breaking: The town of Presidio just sued DHS over plans to build a border wall through the Rio Grande floodplain with no engineering review & no public input. The feds are threatening landowners with eminent domain. Presidio is fighting back.

It was great reconnecting with our alumni tonight! Michelle and I will always be grateful for the chance to work side-by-side with so many brilliant, selfless people who believed in something bigger than themselves.

I’m sorry?! We’re giving a 700 acre wildlife reserve to a trillionaire for free? Whyyyyy???

🚨 New Medicaid work requirements will take effect on January 1, 2027. As a result, in order to qualify for Medicaid benefits, recipients will now be required to work at least 80 hours per month. To receive an exemption, recipients will have to PROVE, through endless paperwork and appeals, that they are “medically frail” and unable to work. The government has already said there are no conditions that will automatically qualify recipients for an exemption.
