Robert Reich @rbreich.bsky.social

The richest man owns X. The second and third richest men control Google. The fourth richest man owns The Washington Post. The seventh richest man owns Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp. And now the sixth richest could soon take over both Paramount and Warner Bros. See the problem here?

“Balogun is an American by virtue of.. wait for it… birthright citizenship.” I wrote about the USMNT & how, despite Trump & Miller’s racist ranting & the DHS/groyper tweet yesterday, at this World Cup, immigration is a blessing & diversity is strength.
