Alito flew multiple flags tied to Jan 6 insurrectionists. Thomas just gave a speech on how "progressivism" is destroying the country — plus his wife was involved in the Jan 6 plot. And Roberts has pushed "shadow docket" cases where justices make decisions without explaining themselves. Please.

Because Draymond Green is on my TV: Draymond Green has 43 playoff games with more turnovers than made field goals, tied with Kendrick Perkins for the most such games since turnovers were first tracked in the 70s.

According to a new study, members of Congressional leadership perform 47% better in stock market trades than their rank-and-file peers, thanks to access to nonpublic information. Today would be a great day to ban ALL elected officials from trading stock, don't you think?

Remember: The oligarchs who control our economy and democracy seek to divide us so they can become more powerful. They want us to turn on each other so we don't look up and see where all the wealth and power have gone. Don't fall for it.

Casual reminder that the myth of “pulling yourself up by your bootstraps” is a cruel hoax designed to convince poor people from all walks of life that the injustices they face are a result of their own actions, rather than an oppressive system rigged against them.

Nearly 8 in 10 Americans agree that spending by wealthy donors and corporations in our elections gives rise to corruption — including majorities of Republican and independent voters. Money in politics is the root of our dysfunction. We must overturn Citizens United.

The 400 richest Americans are now worth a record $6.6 trillion. The entire bottom 50% of America is worth just $4.2 trillion. Read that back. When 400 people control more wealth than half a country’s population, we have a very serious problem.

Trump is reportedly urging the Postal Service to hire a board member from FedEx — a leading USPS competitor — as the next Postmaster General. This is an alarming step towards privatization, which would make USPS more expensive and less reliable for the millions who rely on it.

Most people don’t realize that the FBI does not have a legislative charter. It is a creation of the Justice Dept and operates under rules promulgated by the Attorney General (the AG Guidelines). Those guidelines — which seek to protect civil liberties and baseless investigations— can be rescinded.
