Corruption so large and blatant is beyond shocking - it's obscene!
$5M in Shein stock is crazy. to put it in perspective, a child would have to work three billion hours in a Shein factory to earn a 1/10000th of this

The musical number before Stephen Colbert's monologue was fabulous (monologue, too). Both covering so-called "ballroom monstrosity (and more). How lovely to smile, even laugh. Thank y'all.

I am SO glad that humanitarian Betty White passed away before she could see what Donald Trump & his junk drawer cabinet are doing to our beautiful country, because THIS would have killed her. Oh, how I miss her though.😢💔

Yeah, it makes a buttload of sense to threaten to fire air traffic controllers if they call in sick, when we are critically short of them already. Way to go.

When the article says "Austin," it means the state government. As an Austinite, this is infuriating. It is the state of Texas that is starving our public schools - the city of Austin is a big victim of that practice. "Austin" is *not* the same thing as Texas' irresponsible government.
Texan Property Tax Shell Game

For years, Republicans in the Legislature have promised “historic tax relief.” Yet Property Taxes continued to climb anyway. Why?

For decades Gregg Abbott underfunded Texas Schoolls, shifting that costs to local government.

Homeowners pay that in property taxes.

Donald Trump: “Charlie Kirk was like the son I never had.” Which came as news to Con Junior, Fredo, and Crypto Barron—three sons he barely remembers having.

I don't remember seeing any calls for violent retribution after a Minnesota state senator was assassinated, and it would have been nice not to see any today.

RFK Jr. cut $500 million in funding for mRNA vaccine development.

I get why people are afraid of what's in vaccines: dextrin, dextrose, cellulose gum, guar gum, disodium dihydrogen pyrophosphate.

Oh wait, those are ingredients in Taco Bell Nacho Fries.🙄

ICE is a terrorist organization, operating inside our country!
ICE raided two Asian supermarkets simultaneously and in one confiscated paperwork, necessary documents and shut down the business.

They even harassed the shoppers.

When your face is the only crime, what kind of system is that.
