Today would be a great day to ban members of Congress and their families from trading stocks, don't you think?
BREAKING: Listen to this.

Reporter: "Your husband bought stock in Elon Musk's xAI days before the Pentagon expanded its role. Can you assure us it wasn’t based on inside info?”

Representative Lisa McClain: “100%. If it was, we would've bought a heck of a lot more."

"There's a point where it doesn't matter, you know?"
"Is there?"
*staring* "Yes."
"Because you say so, or because it's true?"
"Because..."

Remember: The real freeloaders in this country are the rich — not the poor or immigrants or any other group of people vilified as scapegoats. The richest 1% evade $163 billion in taxes every year. The United States literally has yacht and private jet tax deductions. Hello?

If ever there is a lesson to learn about artists you find out being absolute monsters to other people, and your first reaction is to feel conflicted because you 'liked their work', I deeply suggest avoiding putting ANYONE atop a pedastal. Yes, that means your favourite artist.

I like the sound of that.

I told myself
“Remember this
Moment,”
But all I can recall
Is the desperation
In my voice
When I said it.

The Corporation for Public Broadcasting was dissolved Monday by its directors, ending 58 years as primary funder for PBS, NPR + local TV and radio stations.

The board of CPB had little choice. Trump + Republicans in Congress last year stripped the organization of its $1.1 billion in federal funds.

BREAKING: Just weeks before the military operation in Venezuela to capture Maduro, energy giant Halliburton filed an unusual lawsuit in international court claiming the Venezuelan government owed them damages for U.S. sanctions against the country.

I've seen people getting angry and saying Stranger Things botched their D&D timeline because a character is referred to as a sorcerer which was not a class back in the '80s. It wasn't, however it WAS the title of a Magic User of a specific level. dungeonsdragons.fandom.com/wiki/Level_t...

Let’s be clear: When it comes to Venezuela’s giant oil reserves, America’s oil companies will be making money for themselves. During the 2024 campaign they made a deal with Trump on which they’re still cashing in.

Everything is for sale.

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.

Trump's approval ratings are tanking. He's flailing on the economy. Epstein haunts him. Republicans are beginning to revolt against him.

He's not all powerful.

A tyrant can exercise tyranny only insofar as the objects of his tyranny continue to allow it.

Remember this.
