If the sub didn’t split, you must acquit!
Defense begins, “This case, ladies and gentlemen, is about a sandwich. A sandwich that according to Agent Lairmore somehow both exploded on his chest in a spray of mustard and onions but also landed intact on the ground still in its Subway wrapper.”

Lower Decks’ win is the first time in 30 years that a Star Trek story has won a Hugo Award.
The last one was “All Good Things” in 1995.

If your “evidence” comes from bible fanfic and not history books, you’re not defending the Constitution — you’re rewriting it.
Time and again, the "evidence" cited by Christian nationalists like Jack Hibbs is stuff they just make up. We've debunked the claim that the Founding Fathers based the separation of powers on Isaiah 33:22 many times, but they all keep repeating it. www.peoplefor.org/rightwingwat...

This is where we are headed. If you don’t believe me, ask what basis the government had to send me and my family to a prison camp in Arkansas. We “looked like the people who bombed Pearl Harbor.”

The top 1% evade $163 billion in taxes per year — enough to end homelessness, hunger, and pay for universal childcare.
👆🏻 This is the crime wave we should be talking more about.

No lawmaker in Congress should be able to own, buy, and sell individual stocks.
We need to ban congressional stock trading—and I've got a bill for that.

The top five egg producers own roughly half of all U.S. laying hens.
The biggest of those corporations is Cal-Maine, which just announced quarterly profits of $509 million — more than 3x what it made a year ago.
Corporate concentration + bird flu = a price-hiking free for all.

A tricky thing about modern society is that no one has any idea when they don’t die.
Like, the number of lives saved by controlling air pollution in America is probably over 200,000 per year, but the number of people who think their life was saved by controlling air pollution is zero.

Government officials often work in the ‘high side’ — a classified system, and the ‘low side’ — an unclassified government system. The entire Signal conversation took place in neither the ‘high side’ nor the ‘low side,’ but in a publicly available messaging app.
