Not only did taxpayers pay for the U.S. military to conquer Venezuela, but we’ll also be subsidizing the operational costs of Trump’s Big Oil donors stealing their oil.

But Republicans cut healthcare and food assistance for millions of Americans because it was “wasteful.”

Reminder: These companies are profiting from ICE’s attacks:

Amazon
AT&T
Motorola
Dell
Google
Microsoft
FedEx
UPS
Bank of America
Citizen's Bank

ICE’s abuses will never end because they are profit drivers for the companies donating to Trump and boosting the stocks Congress owns.

Empire of AI by @karenhao.bsky.social is VERY MUCH worth your time. Meticulously researched and incredibly well-written, it exposes the ecological and labor exploitation of an industry that needs to be regulated. Or dismantled.

Labor Day is a perfect day to start it.

We’re spending a lot of time talking about Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell. But don’t forget their victims. The survivors.

Not all of them made it. At least two women connected to Epstein’s abuse have died by suicide. The real number may be higher.

Jeffrey Epstein accuser, Maria Farmer, speaks out.

But “we’re broke”, right? We can’t afford health care, housing, education, etc right?

“Well,” Vance said, “what Donald Trump has said is we have a lot of federal lands that aren’t being used for anything. They’re not being used for national parks...They could be places where we build a lot of housing. And I do think that we should be opening up building in this country."

Legalizing immigrants would add $1.7 trillion to the economy.

Mass deportation would cost approximately $300 billion.

Trump has no desire to fix our economy.

All this is just theater. LA County is 10 million people. 700 marines in a square mile is un-noticeable. Even the 2,000 NG are minuscule. There are 9,000 cops in LA city alone.

Never thought as a former writing professor, I would be giving economics lessons to the Commerce Secretary, but here we are.

Trump's chaotic tariffs are rooted in an arbitrary fear of a trade deficit, but a trade deficit means Americans are buying goods — a sign of financial security.
