DoorDash spent $1.4M trying to stop Zohran Mamdani from becoming mayor. This week's historic $131.5M enforcement action against DoorDash for underpaying NYC delivery workers shows why. Yet another reminder that the only thing that can beat organized money is organized people.

Well, God isn’t real and offers nothing, so technically Satan offers the exact same thing, except you get to keep 10% of your income and sleep in on Sundays. Sounds like a better deal to us.

In the past, the rich used to pay higher taxes. Now, the government pays the rich interest on a swelling debt, caused largely by lower taxes on the rich. It's a big switcheroo that we need to talk about if we're going to talk about the national debt.

I'm very glad to see pushback on Flock, but it needs to be extended to retailers. It's one thing to have security cameras to identify a suspect but at check out and while shopping is another form of surveillance. If not already happening it will end up as part of the constant tracking of people.

Video of an ICE agent pulling a gun on a wife and mother, who is a US citizen born and raised in the area, near Bailey's Crossroads in Northern Virginia yesterday. Chillingly, they claimed she “almost ran them over” until she told them she had video proving that was a lie.

I don't know who needs to hear this, but it's illegal for landlords to:
- Lock you out or evict you without a court order.
- Shut off your heat, hot water, electricity, or other essential services to force you out of your home.
- Retaliate against you for reporting unsafe conditions or exercising your tenant rights.
- Leave serious health and safety hazards, like mold, unrepaired.
- Discriminate against you because of your race, disability, or other protected characteristics.

This morning in Biddeford, Maine, a 26-year-old man said goodbye to his wife and daughter and left for work. Moments later he was dead, shot in the head by ICE agents, the second man ICE has killed in six days. ICE is killing our neighbors. ICE cannot be reformed. Abolish ICE.

Trump is asking Congress for even more money for war, offset by billions in cuts to domestic and social safety-net programs. It makes this 1970s anti-war PSA all the more relevant today.
