America's richest 10% now hold 60% of the nation's wealth.

The bottom half of America? It holds just 6%.

Wealth inequality is eating this country alive.

These are not the actions of innocent men.
They did not release the full Epstein files.
What they just released is heavily redacted in order to protect the child sex traffickers that they should be prosecuting.

Maybe it's easy to forget this as we all wade through the shit-flooded zone that is 2025 but "this country sucked and I, personally, made it great again" is basic entry-level fascism, and "this country sucked because of dirty criminal immigrants who I am now punishing" is actual fascism

AS A PROFESSOR, I AM ASKING

HOW ARE OUR STUDENTS SUPPOSED TO LEARN IN THESE CONDITIONS?

HOW ARE THEY SUPPOSED TO GO TO SCHOOL AND TAKE EXAMS KNOWING SOMEONE MIGHT JUST SHOW UP WITH AN EASY TO ACQUIRE AUTOMATIC WEAPON?

HOW??????????
Longer statement from Brown University:

"We are very sorry to share that we have confirmed reports of multiple shooting victims, but we are not able to share their condition. They have been transported to local hospitals."

FYI
Icymi: A week before Thanksgiving, the Trump administration deleted the Federal Report on Missing & Murdered Indigenous Women

The ‘Not One More’ report recorded indigenous deaths and disappearances, and provided resources and policy suggestions to address the crisis

At this point, the Washpost edit page is just trolling its readers.

This is my kind of good trouble.
In Monrovia, California, protesters are purchasing 17¢ ICE scrapers from Home Depot and immediately returning them to create long lines and slow down the entire store. Their aim is to disrupt sales and convey a message opposing ICE raids occurring in their neighborhood.

The transphobic messaging completely failed to help Republicans tonight. The anti-trans propaganda was a losing strategy which the GOP pushed all their chips in on, and it failed miserably. They lost every major race tonight.

Keep 'em coming! these clubs keep signing up!

I feel like I'm in one of those movies that takes place in a submarine where the alarms are all going off, and steam is blowing out the pipes, and everyone's running around in wet shoes trying to stop the sub from sinking.
Welp here we are again, fresh out of Archaeologists for Skype a Scientist matches.
