The USPS posting a NINE BILLION DOLLAR LOSS!!! sounds terrible. Certainly worse than if you said "USPS costs thirty dollars per person per year" even though that means the same thing and more accurately describes a government service

1859: Abolitionist John Brown is the 1st American executed for treason. His crime? Freeing the enslaved
And the 2nd? Aaron Dwight Stevens, 29yo. Served Brown during the attempted slave revolt at Harpers Ferry, VA
A stark reminder that legality is not always a measure of justice, but power.

Corporate Dem Rep Henry Cuellar & his wife were indicted in March 2024 for accepting hundreds of thousands in foreign bribes.
Trump just pardoned them.
Hakeem Jeffries is praising Trump’s decision as “exactly the right outcome” & praising Cuellar as “a beloved member of the House.”
Ridiculous.😐

We really don't talk enough about how fundamentally broken the wars in Iraq, Afghanistan, and the entire "war on terror" made American brains. Every administration has pretty much said they can kill whoever they deem is a terrorist, and that whoever they say is a terrorist is one.
Batya might be just fine with a dudetrustme basis for a terrorist designation, but Americans with a functioning moral compass actually expect a plausible public rationale for who is to be treated as a terrorist in our name.
