This is how our government has been corrupted:

1) Donors give huge sums to elect politicians to office
2) Elected officials rewrite rules in the donors' favor
3) Donors make huge profit
4) Repeat

We must get big money out of politics.

It is the root of our dysfunction.

5/ Over and over, all over the country, that's all it took: a traffic stop.

We counted around 150 kids who ended up in federal shelters — oftentimes separated from their families — because they were in a vehicle that got pulled over.
ICE Sent 600 Immigrant Kids to Detention in Federal Shelters This Year. It’s a New Record.
Under a zero tolerance policy, the first Trump administration separated immigrant children from their families at the U.S.-Mexico border. New data suggests separations are happening all over the count...

It's the Tuesday friends!!

Get your tacos and your margaritas in now. For Thursday we battle dry meats, overly wet green beans, and the people in our families that are just bat shit crazy.

Have a day, and stay safe, y'all!

Anytime you hear one of these fucking monsters use the term

"Meritocracy"

I want you to hear

Mer-WHITE-ocracy

They mean white people are not getting preferential treatment.

Funerals are being held in Gaza today after Israeli airstrikes killed at least 24 people on Saturday, despite the U.S.-brokered ceasefire that began on October 10. Gaza’s Government Media Office says Israel has violated the truce nearly 500 times in 44 days.

Historian Rutger Bregman is a well-respected proponent of a universal basic income. The Guardian has called him “the Dutch wunderkind of new ideas.”

The BBC invited Bregman to give this year’s Reith Lecture series.

Before airing, the BBC removed one sentence from his lecture, “A Time of Monsters.”

#WeAintBuyingIt — you don’t need a megastore to find what you need. You need community. This boycott isn’t about missing deals — it’s about reclaiming power. Local businesses? They’re the real holiday gift.

Skip Amazon. Buh bye Home Depot. No thanks Target.

Europe is panicking. Russia is smirking. China is silent.
When these three things happen at once, it means the power map is being redrawn.
And the U.S. just stepped into a weaker position than it wants anyone to notice.👇👇👇

For decades, AIPAC focused entirely on lobbying members of Congress and did not directly support individual candidates. That changed in 2021, when AIPAC launched several Political Action Committees expressly designed to help pro-Israel candidates win their races.

I think it’s pretty clear at this point that one of the main impacts of LLMs is to disrupt thinking: to make it so that far too many people never properly learn how to do it, and then to control the output so there are thoughts that people never learn how to think.

Extremely honored to be included here. This crew is more than “flying the friendly blue skies” - they are the moral, caring, fierce voices that are first in the breach in defense of people and our democracy.

Pls follow all.
In this week of gratitude, thankful for all these fellow fliers in these friendly blue skies!

This country is so morally dirty right now. Morally poisonous. Yes, policy dirty too, but morally we are dirty sewage.

Thanksgiving in Wisconsin shouldn’t require math homework, but Trump’s price surge means families are counting pennies, chasing sales, and putting food back on the shelf. Every aisle’s a reminder he broke his promises and your budget.

Despite the facts, I’m trying to have a good day. At least I’m not alone, learning in real time of the Island Party.

The Island party consists of individuals who are part of the global private equity scheme. Party lines are no longer relevant.

EIP = Epstein Island Party

One of my favorite undergrad moments came with the first snowfall of the year, the Friday before finals. Someone threw the first snowball amid the pre-exam stress around 7 that evening, and within a half hour it was a full-blown winter party. Snowballs, snow people, snow angels, and so much joy.

Wait, this isn’t Scientology?!
Former Obama speechwriter Sarah Hurwitz says Jewish students shouldn’t have smartphones until they finish high school — so they don’t see the “carnage” Israel and the U.S. have carried out in Gaza.
