We need to tax agentic AI more than workers. Our tax code provides bonus depreciation for AI but is stacked against human ingenuity. It makes no sense to provide tax breaks for capital in a capital biased world.
The AG has not prosecuted anyone in the Epstein class. The AG has given Trump & his family indefinite immunity. The AG has set up a slush fund to pay off Trump's criminal allies. Enough is enough. When Democrats are in charge, we will stand up against two tiers of justice.
Democrats must take on the modern day Dred Scott Court. South Carolina is eliminating the only Black majority seat. Term limits on Justices now. Expand the Court from 9 to 13 Justices.
Massie lost his primary & Chris Rabb secured a big victory. The message is clear: if you take a stand against war, AIPAC, & the Epstein class, you have no place in the Trump coalition. But the future of the Democratic Party that is done with the establishment is yours to shape.
Thomas Massie risked his career to pass the most popular & consequential bipartisan legislation in modern history with me. He won young voters who believe the system is unfair by 45%. A new generation will build a movement against the corrupt status quo.
I called for an investment bank, 1,000 trade schools & tech institutes, a care economy, & capital for places left out. I call it economic patriotism. The problem in America is too few people in too few places control too much of our nation's wealth.
If we were not at war, the Fed would have cut rates 2-3 times this year. Now it will likely be zero. Americans are paying more for their mortgages, more for credit cards, more for student debt & more for food and gas. All b/c Trump went along with Netanyahu's Iran war.
Trump promised to bring prices down. Prices under his policies are up. Inflation is 3.8 now. It was 3.0 when he started. His betrayal of his base in launching a war in Iran has been an absolute disaster.
The next Democratic White House does not need a court reform commission like some college seminar. We need action. We need term limits for Justices. We need to expand this morally bankrupt Court from 9 to 13.
The man building a ballroom with foreign steel probably shouldn’t call himself the champion of American steel. But as you learned from the Epstein files, I’m open to working across the aisle. So how about signing my steel bill to actually rebuild the American steel industry?
Trump's second attack of the day on me. This is why I go on Fox & talk about an economic agenda to build steel, ship & battery plants in hollowed out communities. This is why I talk to everyone, including Trump voters, without hurling insults. This is how Democrats will win & unite the country.
Wishing all the Moms a Happy Mother's Day!! So grateful to be with my Mom today who believed in me and encouraged me at those moments when I didn't believe in myself.
Gas prices skyrocketed, 14 service members are dead, and the Secretary of War doesn’t know how much the war in Iran is costing Americans. But the House introduced a resolution to condemn Hasan Piker. I want a bipartisan coalition to end the war and take on the Epstein class.
On America’s 250th anniversary, the King of England is reminding a U.S. president that executive power has limits rooted in the Magna Carta. A reversal of 1776. Our nation must return to first principles and reclaim its destiny. @lawrenceodonnell.bsky.social
Although the Supreme Court technically upheld Section II of VRA, it will effectively dilute the voting power of Black Americans. Trump, Vance, Republican Justices, & Republicans in Congress are undermining multiracial democracy because they fear it. They will not prevail.
My discussion with @katiephang.bsky.social after hosting roundtable with survivors on why we must investigate and prosecute these rich and powerful men.
The real minimum wage was $14 in 1968. Today it is half, but productivity has increased 2.5x. Instead of extractive capitalism, we need a free enterprise system that pays workers what they are worth.
I co-introduced historic legislation to increase the minimum wage to $25. As someone who taught economics at Stanford, here is why it makes sense.
