Mitt Romney said the quiet part out loud: the rich should pay more in taxes.
The Wall Street Journal attacked him for it.
But he’s right—and ignoring the math is how democracies crack.

Even before employees started working without pay, morale wasn’t great at the Social Security office in Hanover. Now the government shutdown has stripped them of the most essential part of a job: a paycheck.
Working for Social Security is hard. Working without pay during the government shutdown is even harder. - The Boston Globe
Morale was already low at the Social Security office in Hanover. Now, it's in the toilet.

Earlier this week, Tucker Carlson and far-right influencer Nick Fuentes bonded over their mutual distaste for Christian Zionism on Carlson's livestream show.

MAGA is not happy about it.
Tucker Carlson’s lovefest with a white nationalist just blew up the Christian right
A conversation with Nick Fuentes about Christian Zionism got many MAGA notables upset.

Powerful and moving interview with Virginia Giuffre's brother Sky and sister-in-law Amanda:

"He's just Andrew. He's no longer a prince... This normal girl, from a normal family, has taken down a prince. We are so proud of her."

"She was extraordinary. She did the extraordinary."

Disney/ABC have a responsibility to refuse to participate in corruption.

Kimmel must be reinstated. If Disney/ABC agree to this extortion then perhaps creatives + workers should consider collective action to push back. Same w/buying park + cruise tickets if they bow.

If you are one of the almost 100 Dems who voted to honor the guy who said the Civil Rights Act was a huge mistake,

don’t bother asking Black people to vote for you, donate to you or canvass for you next year.

Don’t bother.

Please.

And don’t be shocked if you get a primary opponent.

Love an original Victorian gas lamp. The horizontal bars provided a secure support for the top of the ladder, preventing it from slipping sideways. Back when lamps like these were used, lamplighters needed to clean the glass, trim the wick (in earlier oil lamps) or later, to light the gas mantle.
