Another fundraising text from DSCC that ignores Angie Nixon—even as polling shows her tied at 47-47, poised to flip Florida Blue! Dem Party praises Black women as its base then refuses to give Black women candidates the resources needed to win. Donate to Angie: secure.actblue.com/donate/frien...

Native-born labor force participation just hit its lowest August on record. Despite the admin's claims, deportations are not freeing up jobs for Americans — 600,000 native-born workers have left the labor force in the past year.

This is how our government has been corrupted: 1) Donors give huge sums to elect politicians to office 2) Elected officials rewrite rules in the donors' favor 3) Donors make huge profit 4) Repeat We must get big money out of politics. It is the root of our dysfunction.

Americans are relearning the lesson we learned during the Gilded Age of the late 1890s, when robber barons ran the government and the economy for their own benefit: Oligarchy is incompatible with the common good. I'm hopeful we'll respond with a new progressive movement.

Andrew Tate’s Empire of Abuse is a very difficult read. It’s also a reminder that plenty of influential voices in the MAGA sphere weren’t indifferent, but instead advocated for the Tates’. Surprise surprise, that list includes people with the last name Trump. If you can stomach it, it's worth a read

US inflation is the highest in the G7.

Line chart titled "The United States currently has the highest inflation in the G7" showing year-ended consumer price inflation rates across G7 countries. The United States leads at 3.5%, followed by Canada at 3.2% and Italy at 3.1%, while Japan has the lowest rate at 1.5%. The 2.0 percentage point gap between the highest and lowest rates reveals divergent price pressures among major advanced economies, with the US experiencing notably stronger inflation than its peers.

Not sure if anyone's noticed, but democratic socialists aren't racking up primary wins because the base has suddenly embraced the tenets and ideology of Democratic Socialism. They're winning because leftist candidates are the only ones who understand the assignment: Defeat the enemy. Deliver goods.

UCLA 21 - SC 10 Kiki Rice meets the moment at the buzzer. Finally hits the left side jumper she attempted earlier as the clock ticks down. UCLA takes an 11 pt lead in the 1st qtr by attacking the paint, grabbing 2nd chance pts, and making the paint a problem for SC offensively.

Oil prices wouldn't be all over the news today if more of our economy was powered by local, secure renewable energy. This isn't an "energy crisis". It's a fossil fuel crisis. 44% of UK electricity came from renewables in 2025. More of that plus an electrified economy => no more oil shocks.

Crude oil prices, showing a very sharp increase in the last day, from around 65 to 101 dollars per barrel..
