Pete Hegseth has reportedly fired 20% of the military's generals, claiming, "No fatties, no trannies, no beardos, no weirdos, no wimps, no radicals. Just warriors." This toxically masculine ethos sounds straight out of the handbook of Doug Wilson, Hegseth's Christian nationalist spiritual advisor.

Border security is supposedly Trump’s top priority. “Secure the border,” right? So why is he stealing $20 MILLION in border security funds to produce his bullshit propaganda?

Gasoline will have a big impact on September CPI. EIA data show Sep YoY gasoline inflation is 36%. Diesel (not a line item in CPI) will be worse, at 68% YoY. (Diesel demand is half of gasoline by volume; shows up more on the PPI side, and/or embedded in inflation of other goods with lag in CPI)

America had wiped out measles. Now babies are infected at birth.
Congenital measles has rarely been seen in the U.S. That’s changing as vaccination declines and more pregnant women become infected.

Starbucks’ CEO made 6,666x more than the company's median employee in 2024. In 2025, he made 1,794x more. And we're supposed to believe Starbucks can't afford to bargain a fair contract with its unionized workers? I will continue my boycott of Starbucks.

These 7 men at Cornell drugged & raped a woman for hours, then called their friends to come rape her. 2 men got expelled. 5 had to write letter of apology. 0 faced any consequences. Men throughout the societal ladder are complicit. Women are not safe around men.

End billionaires. There is absolutely no reason a human being needs a billion dollars. The idea that one human (and they're entirely without fail completely unethical people with no morals or respect for fellow humans) needs multiple billions is beyond rational explanation. Just no, never, ever.
