What's not part of Jeff Bezos' story, is that today as he adds billions more to his wealth and on pace to become the first trillionaire in history, there are millions of families who have no wealth because in order for Bezos to be rich many have to be poor. #TechIsNotNeutral
Join me TOMORROW as I talk with @BedoyaFTC about Trump's (attempted) firing of him and his FTC Commissioner colleague Rebecca Slaughter.

I am a commissioner at the Federal Trade Commission. The president just illegally fired me. This is corruption plain and simple. My full statement:
Thrilled to announce that Jacinta Gonzalez will be joining MediaJustice as our new Head of Programs in April.

Deeply moved by my colleagues at @MoJoUnion who organized this fundraiser following my termination at @MotherJones. As I navigate an unexpected period of transition, your support – no matter what the size – would mean the world. Every contribution helps. gofundme.com/f/community-sup…
.@evangreer standing up to Nancy Mace isn't just brave - it's necessary. While she pushes bills attacking trans people, too many stay quiet in the name of "civility." Authoritarians want us isolated and afraid to speak up. Not happening. We've got your back.

Four academics from @BYU got copies of hundreds of thousands of records I obtained through years of FOIA requests and litigation and have started presenting and publishing a sizable body of work without mentioning that the records I acquired form the basis of their studies.

Not me finding out Biden dropped out from Complex on Instagram! I didn’t see a notification from a major news outlet until much later.
In all seriousness, we must remain vigilant about the many ways tech circulates news (and misinformation) at a time when democracy is at stake.

Referring to people crossing the border without authorization as "illegals" is not only inaccurate, it's deeply racist and offensive.
HAPPENING NOW: Hundreds block the route of @potus’ motorcade to his State of the Union address.
We say “no business as usual” for anyone when there is an ongoing genocide of Palestinians! #CeasefireNow
Steven Renderos retweeted
We will not be moved!
Hundreds are engaging in civil disobedience as a part of the People’s State of the Union & making it clear they disapprove of Biden’s support for Israel’s genocide against Palestinians in Gaza. #CeasefireNow
Steven Renderos retweeted
To take action, support the archive of Palestinian struggle so it is never forgotten through a resource from our MediaJustice Network member, @witnessorg : archiving.witness.org/?pk_vi…
Steven Renderos retweeted
Today Palestinians are suing @POTUS, @SecBlinken, & @SecDef in a federal court in CA for aiding and abetting Israel’s genocide in Gaza.
Every lawmaker that hasn’t called for a #CeasefireNow: consider yourself on notice. #WeChargeGenocide
