“I’ll say I love her publicly, but the truth is I can’t f---ing stand her,” said one longtime Trump ally. “But if she asks you to go on the podcast, or come over for dinner, you say yes, because Stephen Miller is the second-most powerful person in the world.”

Trump's policies *always* favor U.S. oil billionaires, no wonder prices are so high: - no alternative energy - no climate change research - dragging Ukraine out to damage Russian oil production - grabbing Venezuelan's oil - tariffs on Canadian oil - Failing spectacularly to do the same with Iran

Ossoff is acting like Trump/MAGA/GOP and what they’ve done to the country is Actually Bad. Charismatic and well spoken, which sure helps. But no “my friends across the aisle,” no acting like the imaginary “Baileys” are the only ones who matter, no “don’t talk values, only kitchen table.” That’s it.

It is a hell of a lot easier to do a general strike and shut a country down if you have guaranteed health care whether or not you have a job or can afford it. I think one reason they deny Medicare for All so much is that the GOP knows fear of loss of health care keeps people from rising up.

This is Nazi rhetoric, full stop. It's not only a call to instigate a race war in the United States, but it's reminiscent of historic European justifications used to incite pogroms against Jews. People who say things like this are incredibly dangerous, as there is nothing they won't eventually do.

Trump wanted to jam more hens into smaller spaces - making it harder for inspectors to access them - and making living conditions for egg laying hens worse. All so businesses could sell cheaper eggs.

Fun fact about measles is that it induces immune amnesia. So all those diseases you developed immunity to either naturally or through vaccines gets wiped out making you susceptible to them again. This is why it's so important to get vaccinated against measles.

We will need both carrot (incentives for clean energy) and stick (disincentives for fossil fuels) to follow the needed decarbonization pathway. Anyone who tells you otherwise is selling something — probably (directly or indirectly) fossil fuels.

It's what explains why Musk runs roughshod over environmental or consumer-safety laws, and Meta thumbs its nose at corporate-tax laws: experience has taught them to expect no punishment. It's elite impunity in practice: when you're a star, they let you do it.

Just a reminder that the few remaining experts at the CDC's food-borne illness division identified Taylor Farms as the source of the cyclospora outbreak very early on, but because the owner of Taylor Farms is a big Trump donor, he was able to prevent a recall for weeks as thousands fell ill.
