Want to see what Marco Rubio sounded like in 2016 before he sold his soul for a little bit more power and the chance to remain relevant in a corrupt and fascist Republican party?

From an evolutionary standpoint, fascism is the last refuge of those who can't compete based on ability and within a free and fair framework. It's the attempt to win by force what you can't do without force. It attracts precisely the incels, weirdos and psychopaths

I don't think most Americans have any idea how dangerous it is for a president to declare an entire ethnic group to be "garbage." This is how the worst atrocities in human history have begun.

So not a meeting. A spectacle.
Zelenskyy shares that the meeting with Trump will not be behind closed doors, but rather public - in front of cameras and media.

DOJ official Todd Blanche promised to dump his crypto holdings no later than 90 days after his Senate confirmation in March.

But about a month into the job — before divesting — he ordered an end to investigations into crypto companies.

I just taught my lecture course on mid-20th c US history, which starts with Harding and concludes with Nixon.

For the first time, I had to pause and stress that those scandals were actually shocking at the time and, what’s more, that Americans actually demanded people be held accountable.
All of the money that changed hands in the Teapot Dome scandal totaled less than $10 million after adjusting for inflation, and it was considered so corrupt we still teach it in high school government classes a century later.
Corruption so pungent, it wafts right off the page:

Lobbyists who do pardon deals “say their going rate is $1 million. Pardon-seekers have offered some lobbyists close to the president success fees of as much as $6 million if they can close the deal.”

The biggest divide in America today is not between “right” and “left,” or between Republicans and Democrats.

It’s between democracy and oligarchy.

The old labels — “right” and “left” — prevent most people from noticing they’re getting the shaft.

Know the truth.

So in spring, Pam Bondi said there was nothing to the Epstein investigation, then “closed” it. Now, they “find” 1 million more docs.

So did she close this without seeing these docs? Or was someone hiding them?

A Russian war blogger says assault troops on the Kramatorsk sector now “enter” positions one by one on foot, guided by a lone Mavic because “the whole sky belongs to the enemy.” In one case Ukrainians sent 17 FPV drones at a single soldier; Russian units there have no drones.

Increase in productivity since 1979: 87%

Increase in hourly pay since 1979: 32%

Just so happens that ~25% of workers were unionized in 1979. Today? 10%.

As unions declined, the super-rich have taken a larger share of wealth generated by labor. We must build back union power.
