Billionaire donor Reid Hoffman has backed away from his previous opposition to @linamkhan’s work at the FTC to fight corporate monopolies and abuse.
In 2024, @iamwesmoore said he agreed with Hoffman’s anti-Khan position but now he won’t say how he feels about her 🤔🤔🤔
NEW: In 2024, Wes Moore went on a limb siding with Reid Hoffman and other big donors who wanted Lina Khan out at the FTC.
Hoffman has backtracked, but Moore still won’t answer questions about Lina Khan - and he’s been asked, repeatedly.

Flock and other spy camera company CEOs were asked by @HawleyMO to answer questions at a Senate hearing tomorrow. All of them refused. This is a clear attempt to avoid accountability. The American people deserve answers.

Today, a California commission will vote on a plan that risks trading the state’s net neutrality protections in exchange for federal broadband funding.
@CAgovernor has a choice: step in and reject Trump’s money or take the dirty deal and sacrifice California’s sovereignty.

On Sunday, the Trump administration missed a statutory deadline to declassify a FISA Court opinion from March that reportedly finds more Section 702 compliance issues affecting Americans’ rights. The administration is now in violation of the law. 1/18

BIG AI IS BUYING OFF POLITICIANS. We're doing something about it.
As people demand action to stop Big AI from putting our lives in danger, execs from @OpenAI, @PalantirTech, and @a16z built a monster Super PAC to pay politicians to kill common-sense regulation.
We’re calling on every politician to REJECT @LeadingTheFutureAI. 10 federal candidates are already with us.
If you’re worried about AI and you’re looking to take action, you should know about Leading the Future. Read this 🧵 to learn more.

Companies like Zillow have captured the markets through which Americans find, rent, and buy their homes. They restrict the listings that buyers can view, and drive up hidden fees. State attorneys general must investigate these anticompetitive practices. demandprogresseducationfund.…

Trump’s corrupt crypto bill was just defeated!
At the last minute, @SenGillibrand reversed course and opposed the bill. Just yesterday, she was trying to get her Dem colleagues to support it. Demand Progress previously pointed out that her son’s company received crypto backing

Demand Progress, @econliberties, @ConsumerReports & @SmlBizMajority asked the courts to stop the Visa-Mastercard duopoly that works with megabanks to keep the costs of credit cards high. Judges are not allowed to rewrite the Sherman Act!
