Nobody is saying success is obscene! Many rich people work very hard but many poor people work very hard as well. The point is that our current political and economic system makes it so much easier for the rich to continue to be rich and harder for most people to ever get close.

“Designated media viewing area” means “where you will see exactly what we want you to see and no more.” Which almost nullifies the purpose of the media being there.
As a reminder, members of the media are also to obey the dispersal orders. Members of the media are to use the designated media viewing area at the northwest corner of Glendale and Park.

Oh but Bernie, be fair. They support museums and things!
The 50 wealthiest people in America today own more wealth than the bottom half of our people. Let me repeat that, because it is almost too absurd to believe: the 50 wealthiest people in this country own more wealth than some 165 MILLION Americans.
That is a moral obscenity.

Endorsements coming in fast and strong for @NinaTurner! Yes!
I'm proud to support sister @NinaTurner in her journey for Congress in Ohio's 11th district.
Her unapologetic progressive voice is exactly what Northeast Ohio deserves, and I look forward to fighting alongside her for a host of progressive policies. secure.actblue.com/donate/jb…

Good call.
BREAKING: Elon Musk illegally fired a pro-union Tesla worker & threatened to strip employees of benefits if they formed a union, the @NLRB has found.
The NLRB ordered Musk and Tesla to "cease and desist" from union-busting and listed at least 25 steps they must take to do so.
