Making abortion illegal = killing people. That’s it. It’s not more complicated than that. Making health care inaccessible means people die. States that fought the Civil War for the right to own people are now suing so they can own MORE. PEOPLE. It’s state-sanctioned murder and they are FOR it.

WSJ Exclusive: The Trump admin used federal funds from the Department of Homeland Security to finance those controversial pro-Trump ads that started airing on TV. The taxpayer money used to fund the ads came from U.S. Customs and Border Protection.

Exclusive | Homeland Security Money Financed Pro-Trump Television Ads
White House calls the spots public-service ads, but critics argue using taxpayer money for campaign-like messaging may violate federal law.

For Seattle residents who just spent months listening to grocery giants and their council allies claim algorithmic price-setting improves affordability for low-income people (lol), this book is timely. I'm buying it to learn more about this widespread scheme to put more money in owners' pockets.

This is Michael Kotlikoff. He became Cornell’s interim president in July 2024. The assault was reported to Cornell police Nov 8, 2024. He was president while this unfolded. We need to know how some accused students were allowed to remain. Kotlikoff needs to address publicly, or go.

There is something profoundly demoralizing about watching ordinary people face enormous consequences for minor mistakes while powerful men can cause extraordinary harm and still be protected, promoted, celebrated, or handed another platform.

There is no low too low for this partisan, lawless Supreme Court majority. Using the underhanded emergency docket to give Trump a power the Constitution does not allow, a fat thumb on the scale of elections. Disgraceful, six people who would be better on the Russian Supreme Court than in a democracy

Thanks to Trump and the GOP, Diesel is at$6.50 a gallon. And regular gas is now up 70% since Trump's war began--from $3.20 to $4.49. Has your wages gone up 70% to cover that? Nope. But you know who is richer? Trump's Big Oil oligarchs who funded his campaign. It's the Golden Age for them!
