BREAKING: Live munitions from a Trump-Vance “military demo” flew over I-5 and struck a CHP vehicle. The White House wanted the highway open—but Gov. Newsom shut it down for safety. That decision likely prevented injuries or worse.

#CancelSpotify

They are running ICE ads.

They aren't the only company, but I think we should make an example out of Spotify and do an economic boycott against companies supporting masked, armed agents terrorizing innocent Americans with impunity.

Spread the word.

Rand Paul: "When you kill someone, if you're not in a declared war, you really need to know someone's name at least. You have to accuse them of something. You have to present evidence. So all of these people have been blown up without any evidence of a crime."

Although the rallies were peaceful and even joyful, that didn’t stop figures on the right, including the president, from having outsized reactions to the day’s events.

This isn’t data, it’s a warning. Serious 30 month and 9 month rainfall deficiency in the Mt Lofties, SE SA and the Otways…levels which in the past have led to catastrophic bushfires. Prepare people…clean up, repair, save cash and insure. And join community agencies now. #auspol

I suppose I have to do the social media engagement thing since it's basically part of marketing yourself for a job now.

Hi, political scientist here. It's generally considered a diplomatic faux pas to bomb your allies then call them crackheads when they complain.

The 100 lowest-paying US corporations spent $644B on stock buybacks from 2019 to 2024.

Buybacks artificially boost share prices and inflate CEO pay.

The typical worker at these companies earned $35k last year.

Meanwhile, the average CEO was paid $17.2M

See the problem?
