A reminder that Inauguration Day will also be MLK Day and per his prior statements, the day Trump will begin pardoning the people who sacked that same capitol on January 6, 2021. Attending is a choice folks can make but it's not some grand salute to the institutions. www.mediaite.com/trump/here-a...

I’m pretty sure Pelosi and her entire generation of elected Democrats should be spending their time sitting in a corner thinking about how they lost America rather than attacking AOC, who didn’t

NEW: For the 3rd year in a row, Elon Musk’s foundation gave away less than it was supposed to. In 2023, it gave away $421 million less than the minimum required for a charity of its size, new filings show. www.nytimes.com/2024/12/12/u...
Musk’s Foundation Gave Away Less Money Than Required in 2023

If you want to understand why healthcare pricing is horrific, the first thing to know is that our system puts 100% of the credit risk for deductibles, copays and co-insurance on hospitals and doctors. That's insane.

Most (56%) Black people in the United States live in “the South.” With all we know of the racism built into America’s justice system (“War on Drugs,” policing, prosecution, incarceration, etc), it’s no surprise a map of INCARCERATION RATES BY STATE looks like this.

Caging Black people is the point.
