again we do not really do a good job of explaining how wealthy people like Jeff Bezos are
his net worth is $253.2 billion.
so he could take one million dollars, and just light it on fire
and then do it again tomorrow
and again the day after that

I recorded this today, in Portland, Oregon, at a huge march to the ICE facility in SW. The crowd was full of cyclists who had ridden there in memory of Alex Pretti; members of several labor unions; and ordinary citizens of every age, including this little girl. So of course ICE deployed tear gas.

I was a personal trainer for almost a decade. Honest to God, the number one thing I would tell my weight loss clients was to eliminate soda and fast food from their diets. Here, the "MAHA" Secretary of HHS is cheering on soda... at a fast food restaurant. Snake oil salesman.
