I have a long standing relationship with Ishtar who everyone thinks is just a sexy babe goddess but she's ALSO a goddess of war ("in war you are my battle leader"), civilization, and everything that makes life worth living. /1

Fifteen presidents have invoked the Insurrection Act.
Trump claims one president used it 28 times in the course of a single presidency.
The Insurrection Act has been used a total of 30 times over the course of its 217-year history.

Trump: "I'm allowed as you know as president, like 50% of the presidents have used the Insurrection Act. Everybody agrees you're allowed to use that and there is no more court cases, there is no more anything. We're trying to do it in a nicer manner, but we can always use the Insurrection Act."

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

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."

Just yesterday Trump promised to spend a record $1 trillion on the military — roughly half of which will go to private defense contractors that price-gouge the government.
Remember this when Trump or Republicans talk about "sacrifices" that need to be made during a shutdown.

Yeah, dipshit, that's why they turned you over to the police rather than beating the shit out of you. Y'all gonna learn you've been lied to the hard way I guess.

A guy ran into a classroom at the University of Washington threw up Nazi salutes, yelled a bunch of slurs, then roughly 30 students chased him down, got him arrested.

This is how to do it, kids: Home insurance is now a climate story. Put it on the front, and put "climate change" at the top. Especially now that deniers will control the federal and state government.
