Funny. I cannot recall any "diplomat" seeing their net worth rise by roughly 📈 $100 million to $200 million since taking the position. Yet Jared Kushner has. So, spare me any BS about his job description. It has nothing to do with diplomacy.

This is the most heartbreaking stories I’ve heard in a long time. ICE detained 2-year-old Orlin Hernandez Reyes’ mother. She begged to be reunited with him before deportation. ICE refused. What happened next is horrific. No matter how you feel about immigration, normal people don’t like cruelty.

Uber just announced it will lay off 10% of its workforce, or around 3,300 workers. Last year, Uber CEO Dara Khosrowshahi made $35M — 360 times his median employee's pay — and announced a $20B stock buyback program to further enrich shareholders and himself. Textbook corporate greed.

MLB owners say they need a salary cap, which will hold payrolls down, leaving more money for them. A team about to finish under .500 for the 11th consecutive season and that hasn’t won a postseason game since 2009 is going to be sold for $4B. Nobody cries poverty like ultra-rich white men.

More than 70% of Texas data centers refused to answer a state-mandated inquiry about their water use. These Corrupt Bigshots want our water while keeping Texans in the dark about how much they're taking.
A Dallas Morning News graphic showing large electrical transmission lines and towers beside a data center facility and a nearby home. Text reads: “More than half of Texas data centers broke law by not responding to water use inquiry.”
