When Dick Cheney thinks you're a total douchecanoe then maybe there's something wrong with you.
President Trump was not invited the memorial service for Dick Cheney on Thursday, and Vice President JD Vance was also not in attendance. Cheney, a once-powerful Republican, turned on Trump last year by announcing he would vote for Vice President Kamala Harris.

Once more proof that we really need millionaires and billionaires to make our world run efficiently and effectively. FUCK THAT SHIT.
Rich people have way too fucking much money when they can buy stupid shit like this.

Its time to tax the fuck out of the rich to pay for the things we’ve been deprived of for years

Free education
Free healthcare for EVERYTHING,

"Louis Riel would have been a big supporter of our pipelines and development in the Ring of Fire. He would have seen Canada undermining Indigenous sovereignty to prioritize Canadian 'nation building' projects as an example of reconciliation, of what the Métis fought for in 1869 and 1885."

From an organization that has been defending and hiding pedophiles for centuries. Not surprised
Holy shit. They're really doing it. They're doing "actually pedophilia is good now." The debasement of the American Right is complete.

The only silver lining is that people may recognize the true costs (both $ and human) of their grocery bills.
A rare admission from the administration that policy choices have knock-off effects.

Conservative politics is just a big Ponzi scheme.
Kristi Noem, while governor of South Dakota, supplemented her roughly $130,000 salary by secretly accepting $80,000 donated to a political nonprofit she was affiliated with, records show.

She never disclosed this income on federal ethics forms.

Louder in the back for all the people who don’t have a clue about how insurance works
Murray: I talked to a family that’s paying about $300 a month for their health insurance. It’s going to jump to over $1,800 per month.

Many people will turn away and not pay for it—obviously, they’ll lose their health insurance. The fewer people who have insurance, the more everybody pays.

And autism - which exists on a spectrum - is not necessarily something that is wholly negative. Like ADD, people can successfully function in particular environments. We need to stop seeing people with autism or other neuro-divergencies as somehow failures.
