Animal agriculture has a child labor problem.
Following an investigation that found more than 100 children working in meat processing plants, the Department of Labor issued penalties totaling over $1.5 million.
The worst offenders? Major meat companies Tyson, JBS and Cargill.

I still haven’t been sued.
Nancy Mace lied about being assaulted.
I keep saying this but she still hasn't sued me for defamation.

Luigi Magione has terrorist charges against him.
Terrorism - Intending to intimidate or coerce a civilian population. Intimidate a unite of government or government policies by violence and murder.
I feel that definition applies much more to CEOs of healthcare companies.

"Trump wasn’t simply mistaken or proven wrong. He deliberately lied, and the question now is whether the press will actually hold him accountable or remain his willing accomplices. The early returns aren’t great."
Trump's walk back on lowering prices is a media failure
He was lying all along and got away with it.

Trying to imagine pitching this movie 50 years ago:
“So this guy from apartheid goes to America and cons his way to collecting half a trillion dollars and buys a President with it. Then he starts to order Congress around from his computer which is actually a portable telephone.”

I'm fucking done. Making the popcorn, gonna sit back for 4 years, and watch the shitshow as they burn it all down. My biggest fear is that it will take another Great Depression to get people to WTF up and tell the Oligarchy to fuck themselves. Dems lost the InfoWars and it shows in the results.

Elon Musk is fine with the government shutting down because he’s worth nearly $500 billion and will not be impacted
Meanwhile members of the military, TSA agents, and postal workers — people with families to support — will be forced to work without pay
