Summary

We have The Lever's Luke Goldstein on today to talk about the GENIUS Act & its implications, including that oligarchs might be able to issue their own private currency if it's signed into law. Check out Luke's piece here: https://www.levernews.com/get-ready-to-pay-in-zuckbucks/

Then Sam talks to members of United Food and Commercial Workers will be picketing in Worcester, Mass tomorrow as they negotiate a new contract before the current one expires in just over a week. If you want to show support and get a free MR T shirt, head to their picket at UMass Memorial in Worcester with a pizza and send us a pic to Majority Reporters (at) Gmail. Also, contact Mass Memorial directly to tell them you support UFCW's members: https://www.massgeneral.org/contact

And / or send them some love on their FB page:

And tell the local paper in Worcester to cover this story: https://help.telegram.com/contact-us

In the Fun Half, Piers Morgan finally uses the G word when describing what's happening in Gaza. Republicans are getting an assist of sorts from Senate Democrats to push through Trump's Big Beautiful Bill, though Schumer and co. certainly don't want you to see it that way.

Here's David Dayen's reporting on how Senate Dems could do something to stop it should they want to: https://prospect.org/politics/2025-05-28-senate-democrats-stop-big-beautiful-bill/

And finally, theoretical physicist Sean Carroll absolutely mops the floor with Eric Weinstein's physics musings.
