The amount of Amazon workers relying on SNAP and Medicaid has nearly TRIPLED since 2020. Meanwhile, Amazon's profits have soared by 550% in the same time frame. Watch this before you shop for Prime Day.

The Trump Organization filed for trademark protection of "Trump TV" so that the government would have to PAY him to use the channel he just created… Miraculously, Trump has found yet another way to steal even more money from the American people. Trump. Is. A. Charlatan. And. A. Fraud. 😎✨

It cannot be overstated how much Bret does not make an argument in this column. He does not list a single worthy book he thinks was excluded. He clearly has not read the vast majority of the books. His entire critique is just “these books are written by women and minorities, which is bad”.

This is not good. Feels like a “here we go” moment. The PM has made a lot of hay out of pushing back to the guy south of us, but this is a page out of his playbook. More and more I am happy I voted NDP in the last election.
