TMI 09/20/2024 – Greg Palast’s “Vigilantes Inc.” Exposes How YOUR Vote Has Been Stolen, How Disney/Pixar’s Blockbuster Inside Out 2 Robbed Their Unionless Animators, more

On TMI for Friday, 9/20/2024, Greg Palast tells us how his investigations team has busted the most brazen, racist attack on voting rights yet. We’re introduced to a terrible new threat to the right to vote: “Vigilante” challenges by self-appointed vote-fraud hunters – not government officials – who are targeting well over ONE MILLION young voters and voters of color to block the counting of their ballots. They tested the operation out last time in Georgia. The Trump-sponsored group “True the Vote” has gone from 88 vote-challenging vigilantes in 2020 to over 40,000 “volunteers” for 2024 in 43 states! Greg Palast has made this ESSENTIAL documentary free to stream at GregPalast.com – it’s worth watching and sharing if you care about voting.

Then, when you think about Pixar and the wonderful library of entertainment they have created, you don’t often stop to wonder how their workers – animators and such – have fared. In the case of Inside Out 2 – still at theaters and the top-grossing animated film of all time – these folks were not just worked to death in creating so much money for Disney, many of them were let go just before they would have gotten the profit sharing bonuses that would have compensated for the low wages their unionless studio signs them on for. If you ever wanted to know why unions are a good idea, here’s a great example. All this and more on TMI for Friday, September 20, 2024 – listen in for YOUR Cure for the Common Media!
