John Deere has laid off roughly 1000 workers so far this year.

But the company reported a profit of over $10 billion in 2023.

Its CEO received $26.7 million in total compensation.

And it spent over $7 billion on stock buybacks.

Textbook corporate greed.

@rbreich Are they offshoring too?

Trump's campaign claims to have received over $34 million on the day he was convicted of 34 felony charges.

Remember when Trump said he’s pay his supporters legal bills?

Looks like they’re paying his.

You’re being duped, folks.

@rbreich Mr.Reich, “duped” is awful kind for what he’s done to his brain chemistry and religiously challenged base.

Tesla chair says Elon Musk needs $46 billion pay plan to stay motivated

Musk could devote less time to Tesla if pay isn't re-approved, shareholders hear.

@arstechnica Musk divorcing from Tesla might allow Tesla to survive, his energy is destructive as evidenced by his historical behavior. Musk ain’t no Nikolai Tesla and usurping his name for his profit is repulsive.

@arstechnica Selling shitty cars and truck like things and loose market share and value should be elementary to anyone except a genius like Musk. Tesla is destined to be the next Twitter.

All nine Republican senators running for reelection this year just voted against the right to contraception:

John Barrasso
Marsha Blackburn
Kevin Cramer
Ted Cruz
Deb Fischer
Josh Hawley
Pete Ricketts
Rick Scott
Roger Wicker

So much for the party of "freedom."

@LawrenceShop@sfba.social avatar

@rbreich So let’s see, republicans don’t want to pay for food stamps or other aid to women with dependent children nor do they wish for them to access contraception or abortion for any reason. Are they planning to watch women and children suffer hunger or homelessness as public SPORT? Sure looks like it. Republicans are increasingly evil and dangerous! VOTE DEMOCRAT UP AND DOWN

Trump asked Big Oil to give him $1 billion for his campaign last month.

He promised lower taxes and to gut environmental regulations in return.

Big Oil CEOs already appear to be taking him up on the offer, inviting Trump to a fundraiser in Houston yesterday.

Be warned.

@rbreich God willing he will be given a great quantity of oil. Medically, humorously and industrially referred to The HHH with double rentention device lockout. I want the video of Big Rexxon Tillerson personally pulling plunger. Remember Rex called Trump a stupid motherfucker.

Boeing shareholders approved a $33M pay package for CEO Dave Calhoun, despite overseeing huge losses and safety problems.

It's the biggest package ever given to a Boeing CEO.

Calhoun is resigning by year's end. Guess what he gets then?

A $45 million golden parachute.

Unreal.

Reminder that Amazon and Space X are fighting in court to have the NLRB declared unconstitutional.

This means the two richest men on earth want to dismantle the government agency that holds them accountable for union busting.

Nothing terrifies them more than worker power.

Keep your eyes on this story. Shadowy “online” Axos Bank and its biggest billionaire shareholder, Don Hankey, have together extended more than $500 million in financing for Trump’s benefit. They helped him out on loans and now a huge civil judgment. What will they get in return?

In the last week, Trump has compared himself to Jesus and to Nelson Mandela on account of his perceived, alleged persecution by the legal system. Who’s next, the Dalai Lama? Joan of Arc? The man has zero shame.

@rbreich In fairness to the freakish orange skinned little man, he will be imprisoned unlike Mandela and he is currently being crucified at his own hand because of his own criminality. So ya minor similarity…
