Just once — once — I’d like to see Republicans wage war on how shitty they’ve made our country.

When Elon Musk's groups spent $20M+ on Wisconsin's 2025 Supreme Court race, his involvement backfired and his candidate lost by 10 points. Now his super PAC has quietly spent $14M+ on key midterm races, including the Texas Senate race. Would be a shame if people found out.

Elon Musk is flying under the radar in the Texas Senate race. Republicans want to keep it that way.

One Republican involved in the Texas Senate contest called Musk’s in-your-face campaigning in Wisconsin last year “a mis

All well and good, and the right thing to say. But let’s remember how quazillionaire WaPo owner Jeff Bezos shredded one of the world’s most historic and iconic editorial pages. It’s now garbage — and ironically not even allowed to print *op-eds* that disagree with Jeff’s myopic libertarian bullshit.

Sometimes a leader seeks to remake a country in his own image. Unfortunately, those people are often monsters.

History is a ladder and if you climb it, you can get your bearings. You might not like where you are, but you can see it more clearly. How Trump is just like every other failed asshole dictator, and why being “even more extreme” is his self-destruct button:

When rich speculators prosper While farmers lose their land; when governments spend money on weapons instead of cures; when the upper class is extravagant and irresponsible while the poor have nowhere to turn all this is robbery and chaos.

This is just sad, @washingtonpost.com. Republican P.B.S. Pinchback served as 24th governor of Louisiana in 1872 and 1873. He was Black. It’s something a seasoned staff would know, or at least check. Jeff Bezos added $29 *billion* to his net worth in July alone, while continuing to drain your husk.

If you want to shrink something, you must first allow it to expand. If you want to get rid of something, you must first allow it to flourish. If you want to take something, you must first allow it to be given. This is called the subtle perception of the way things are.

Food companies wanted deregulation. Now there are dozens of recalls across the country. Mining companies wanted deregulation. Now the black lung rate is at a 45-year high. Financial companies wanted deregulation. Now financial losses to fraud are the highest on record. Noticing a pattern?

The closer a nation is to democracy, the more likely its policies reflect its citizens’ views. US was never a real democracy; now courts, billionaires and MAGA have moved us to an authoritarian zip code. It doesn’t reflect our views. Sorry for being dicks. We’ll be back. Thanks for your patience.

🗳️We won’t have democracy until we actually ENFORCE antitrust laws. Courts rationalize huge monopolies by using “consumer welfare standard” - they’re illegal only when creating higher prices. Other nasty effects aside, what about a CITIZEN welfare standard? Monopolies control OUR politics and media.

Some good news for the most endangered wolf species on the planet. (Corrupt Republicans and greedy billionaires keep trying to gut the Endangered Species Act. Unlike wolves, those carnivores are invasive, kill for sport and destroy communities.)

North Carolina is home to the only wild population of red wolves in the world. It got a little larger this spring.
