Why do we allow big profitable companies to offload costs to the public? They should pay living wages and provide healthcare benefits.

You know, if you *really* cared about the wellbeing of women in college, instead of carping about the statistically insignificant number of trans athletes in sports minding their own business, you’d be railing against these Cornell fraternity cretins who drugged and gang-raped a passed-out women:

This is revolting! Rabbiatu, a dedicated nurse who served in the US for over 30 years, was forcibly deported to a country she’s never even set foot in—despite a court ruling halting her removal! Seeing her dragged on the floor is heartbreaking. Humanity where? 🎥 The Guardian

📌Every single story about Trump should include bare minimum that he is a felon, and a serial liar. This is called necessary context. He is completely unscrupulous, and the normalization of this revolting man has been the most grievous thing I have seen in 44 years of journalism.

The heads of five federal agencies and the president conspired to “punish” a state because they wanted a criminal and traitor to our nation released from prison. The corruption is unlike anything we’ve ever seen. It’s time to end the madness in November.
