My favorite part of Star Wars was the scene where the Resistance leaders decide against trying to destroy the Death Star and instead kick in $1 million each for Palpatine's inauguration.

To be clear, ABC paid the incoming president/felon $15M because they weren’t technically correct when they called him a “rapist” instead of a “sexual abuser”…

California, a state of nearly 40,000,000 people, has the same amount of representation in the United States Senate as Wyoming, a state of less than 600,000 people. This is the direct result of a deal struck between slave states and free states in the 1700s. It’s time for that to change.

Josh Shapiro called the McDonald’s employee who reported Luigi Mangione a “hero.” She will NOT get the $10,000 reward money because she called 911 instead of the tip line. By the way, Josh Shapiro got $15,000 in donations from United Healthcare last year. Numbers are fun.
