Hayden Panettiere was vocal about the abuse she suffered in Hollywood from a young age. Like so many girls before her, she wasn’t protected. Now she’s gone. This is why we keep demanding the release of the Epstein files. The rich & powerful must be held accountable.

I'm not trying to be funny but first you claim you can't believe people still like Michael Jackson after all he did and then you say "even if he didn't do it" people still shouldn't be liking Michael Jackson. Which means the problem you have isn't about what Michael Jackson did or did not do.

If Democrats want to regain working people, they must disavow Big Money. They must hammer economic populism — and have a laser focus on the cost of living crisis in America. There’s no way the party can speak for or represent the working class in America if it's beholden to corporate interests.

Since trump has done his best to ruin our relationship with our best friend Canada, I can understand how Canadians see the game Sunday as something more than three periods of hockey. May the best team win.

Medicare for All would save $450B a year. Every dollar spent on food stamps generates $1.50-$1.80 in economic activity. Each dollar going to low-wage workers adds $1.20 to the economy overall. It’s not about what this country can or can’t afford. It’s about priorities.

I can’t provide a picture, but I had the honor of working on the Rivian R2, running tests on all its ECUs using a "vertically integrated" approach, where I heavily utilizing Hardware-in-the-Loop (HIL) simulators, "lab cars" for full system integration, and extreme real-world validation.

The school shooting in Tumbler Ridge today is a devastating tragedy. 10 killed, including the shooter and multiple injuries. Tumbler Ridge has a population of just 2,400. Absolutely heartbreaking. My heart and prayers goes out to the victims of Tumbler Ridge Secondary School in British Columbia.

From Friday (01/23) to Sunday (01/25), it was the most snowfall Toronto got since 1937. It went from clear skies, moderately cold temperatures, to getting slammed with snow within the span of 24 hours (let alone a few days). Despite climate change, I love how Mother Nature moves.

Minneapolis Police Chief Brian O'Hara: "People have had enough. This is the third shooting in less than 3 weeks. The MPD went the entire year last year recovering about 900 guns from the street, arresting hundreds of violent offenders, and we didn't shoot anyone ... this is not sustainable."

Renee Good Alex Pretti Killed by "law enforcement", because our nation has a 2nd Amendment problem. Europe: Gun ownership rare. Officers can afford time, distance, and negotiation. US: "Command Presence Policing". Assume any encounter could involve firearm. Leads to lower tolerance for ambiguity.

When Kanye West owned this property, the house was sadly an abomination. When in the right hands, something terrible can be turned into something beautiful. As scripture says, the wages of sin leads to death (of beautiful things, let alone death itself), destruction, and aesthetically gross appeal.

Trying to avoid anti-immigration rhetoric here. Many Iranians are cautious about foreign involvement, worrying that it suppresses genuine internal movements within Iran.

Controversial, but great point from Daniela! If Western leaders are seen actively inviting large numbers of Iranians to resettle or drawing them into Western political battles, Iran's propaganda machine can spin that as proof of foreign interference, weakening internal support for protests.

As of this week, millions of Americans are now paying thousands more for health insurance. If the President and Congressional GOP think Washington has the capacity to "run" Venezuela right now, why won't they fix the insurance cost crisis they've created here at home?
