As Federal Reserve Chair, Alan Greenspan was the most powerful person in America for nearly two decades. He was by all accounts a brilliant and charming man. But his insistence on financial deregulation brought our economy to its knees.

The richest man owns X. The second and fourth richest men control Google. The third richest man owns The Washington Post. The fifth richest man owns Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp. And now the sixth richest could soon take over both Paramount and Warner Bros. See the problem here?

She dropped out of residency because she wanted to influence health care? Shouldn't the fact that she isn't qualified to practice medicine keep her from being approved to be surgeon general? MAGA is breaking us.

The ICE surge in Minnesota cost $280M to detain 4k people. Of those- only 30 were accused of violent crimes. $9 million per capture of the "worst of the worst". Renee Good and Alex Pretti were unavailable for comment….

As Trump’s DHS Ravages US, Schumer Says His Job Is “to Fight for Aid to Israel”
Days before Schumer’s remarks, the Trump administration bypassed Congress to approve a $7 billion arms sale to Israel.

Mamdani: "I speak of Renee Good, whose final words to the man who murdered her were, 'I'm not mad at you.' I speak of Alex Pretti who died as he lived, caring for the stranger. ICE shot him bc he did something they could never fathom ... let us offer a new path: one of defiance through compassion."

Pritzker: The Insurrection Act is designed for circumstances where your rights can’t be protected by local authorities This is exactly the opposite. Your civil rights are being infringed upon by CBP and ICE, and then they want to call in troops claiming that they’re protecting CBP and ICE.

it is the policy of this government to treat democratic-led states as conquered territories and the people therein as something like hostiles or even enemy combatants

It would have been easy to shoot a tire if their goal was to stop the vehicle. These guys haven't even had basic police training. Just thugs.

They should have done this 30 years ago when Dems lost the House & Senate under Clinton, who sold out the blue-collar base who had been solidly Dem since FDR.

Problem is, Obamacare is still expensive crappy health insurance, putting the insurance bureaucrats between patient & doctor.

I noticed this in 9th grade. They re-drew the school boundaries & it wasn't a good match. Kids who weren't college bound in school A hated the kids who were from school B. I wouldn't claim that everyone from our school B was polite at all times, though.

Nobody complains about taxpayer funded college for the service academies and ROTC students. Why not fund med school, nursing school, college for teachers, people who make our country better? Our best & brightest would go into these fields.

from today's post about Bill Maher's latest episode of fucktacular toadyism — thanks for reading it! link to the whole thing is here: bit.ly/4cqOlE8 (longer excerpt in the alt text)
Bill, you can fuck straight off with this woe is me nonsense. read the fucking room. America is being torn apart right now. people are being disappeared off the streets. the social safety net is being blowtorched to oblivion.

the last thing we need is some useful idiot waxing rhapsodic about how the monster responsible for it all is gracious and polite.

for fuck’s sake, of course Donny was gracious and polite. that’s how getting conned by a conman works, Billy. Donny was carnival-barking you, telling you exactly what you wanted to hear — and you pounced on the bait like some backwoods rube who just fell off the turnip truck. step right up and win a prize! all it will cost you is your credibility.

smug, whiny and easily-conned is no way to go through life, son.
