No, obviously rainbow capitalism isn't a good thing, but it *is* a good sign Every corporation is run by evil fuckers who would sell their own grandmothers to a dog food factory if it would increase shareholder value by a fraction of a percent And they just realized that we're gonna win in the end

Musgraves, who asked a trio of mariachi players who had been abducted by ICE to open for her, “has been forcefully and repeatedly connecting the dots between how closely related—and indebted—country music is to Mexican traditional sounds and the ppl that MAGA is constantly demonizing and targeting.”

Yes, absolutely. For example, if in the next few weeks, Trump sends ICE officers to polls, you know what you do? You go anyway, you throw them a middle finger, and you walk into the ballot box and don't let them intimidate you. What you don't do is despair and stay home.

Common Cause just told a federal judge that Trump's taxpayer funded propaganda ads ran hundreds of times after a TRO ordered an immediate halt to them. The two-page notice buff.ly/u2GESdN
1. On October 12, at 1:31 p.m. Eastern, the Washington Post reported that two ads continued airing after the Court issued the Order and into the early hours of
Monday, October 12, on multiple programs, including “60 Minutes,” “ABC World News Tonight,” and “America’s Funniest Home Videos.” Ex. A.
2. According to AdImpact data retrieved at 2:45 p.m. Eastern today, Defendants’ ads ran in nearly 400 spots on programs that began airing at 7 p.m. Eastern last
night—that is, after this Court’s order was in effect. Ex. B.
3. Specifically, “Final Battle” ran in 193 spots during “60 Minutes,” which aired on CBS starting at 7 p.m. Eastern. Ex. B.
4. And “Maduro” ran in 198 spots during “America’s Funniest Home Videos,” which aired on ABC starting at 7 p.m. Eastern. Ex. B.

People are discussing how Halloween candy is so terrible these days. A reminder that alot of the candy we eat is made with women’s prison labor. Russell Stover’s factory in Kansas busses in 150 women a day via a convict leasing program to staff their candy factory.
Russell Stover has begun using prison labor to make candy in
Kansas
A Russell Stover candy factory in Kansas has begun hiring incarcerated workers through a work release program, Eoin Higgins reports in his newsletter, The Flashpoint. About 150 women are bussed in from the Topeka Correctional Facility and paid $14 an hour, but the prison keeps some of their wages for room and board, taxes, transportation, and other expenses. When all is said and done, they take home less than $6 per hour. These deductions are high, but elsewhere in the country, they're even higher: In our May series on prison
