Your daily reminder that the tariff taxes we now pay will never go away. Even if the tariffs are abolished. Once companies have people paying a higher price for their products, that's what they cost. Until they go up again. Prices do not go down after this kind of fuckery. Have a nice Labor Day.

🇵🇱 Polish PM Donald Tusk: For Russia this autumn and winter are supposed to be critical. The Russians want to mobilize 600,000 soldiers. The next seven months will certainly be critical. The Ukrainian-Russian war is at a turning point.

So far this year, Hegseth has removed at least 45 officers, selected by boards made up of peers, from promotion lists. More than half of those officers have been female or Black. These actions appear to violate the rules governing a promotion system that is meant to be apolitical and merit-based.

Wishing Joe Biden peace, comfort, & all the love and care he deserves. 
#Pinks

Former U.S. President Joe Biden was diagnosed with aggressive prostate cancer in May 2025, which had spread to his bones. The disease is in an advanced stage. According to his family and doctors, his treatment and hormone therapy are continuing.
As a Dane, I can say this: the rest of the world sees Biden for who he truly is-a kind and caring human being.
He was a good president.
He is a good human being.
I am deeply sorry for him and his loved ones.

Tales of everyday corruption. Pete Hegseth cancelled the $400,000 contract for making uniforms for the Blue Angels on the grounds that the contract with "The Sewing Box" was DEI since the firm is Black-owned. Instead, he awarded it to a Trump donor for $1,690,000, a 325% price increase!

Look at this graph. The share of national income going to the richest 10 percent was lowest (and share to lower 90 percent highest) when union membership was at its highest. As unions have weakened, inequality has widened. This is why we must build back union power.

The U.S. Is Burning Through Weapons in Iran. Russia and China Are Taking Note.
The Iran war has depleted U.S. weapons stockpiles, resulting in a significant erosion of firepower. A more drawn-out Iran conflict benefits Moscow and Beijing, some analysts say.
