They’re not wrong

"The rise of extreme wealth is one of the clearest signs of this imbalance. In 1987, billionaires held wealth equal to 3% of global GDP. Today this tiny elite, just 0.0001% of the world population, owns the equivalent of *16%* of world GDP in wealth."

Deal

April 2, 2026April 1, 2026 ~ susie

About time they figured it out. So much unnecessary pain and hassle when this was our offer all along. “Yes to everything except the ICE/CBP bits that everyone knows need reform” — what was so hard about that? What was the point of holding all the rest hostage? www.nbcnews.com/politics/con…

There’s a lot more than there used to be:

The capture of US media orgs is accelerating. And the UK is next in line. The BBC has fallen to an AI hype guy. And my old newspaper, the Observer, is publishing Palantir puff pieces. But why? I have no idea. But in Companies House I found the Obs has a mystery investor: the North Hatley Trust.2/

Catch-22

March 26, 2026March 25, 2026 ~ susie

Federal law says you MUST carry your immigration documents at all times. So what happens when ICE takes them and won't give them back? You're trapped. Legally required to carry papers that the government is holding hostage. This is happening right now in Minnesota, and it's spreading.
