Ice Cream God. Snark savant. We need to treat voting the way Republicans treat guns, and guns the way Republicans treat voting.

Pat McAfee shouldn't be on tv every day. He should be the guy from college you assume is dead now when in actuality he just works for his dad and was ordered by a judge to delete his Instagram.

Over 2,000 alumni from Vivek’s all-boys catholic high school in Cincinnati have signed and circulated a petition demanding that he pull the ad and issue a public apology for “ignoring the moral responsibilities” of his Jesuit education. I think he’s pretty cooked.

From Zelenskyy. Patriot interceptors that could save innocent lives are sitting in European countries for weeks, which they paid for, unable to be transferred to Ukraine because Hegseth refuses to sign off.

Watched the "Musk" movie last night at a local theater. Amazing how filmmaker Alex Gibney could distill all of Elon Musk's decades of douchebaggery down to just four hours.

The party that fought relentlessly to cover up the Epstein files is now siding with a child rapist over his 12 year old victim. Who could have seen this coming? (Hint: Everyone)

I'm showing the body cam video of Kohen Wiley's death because they refused to release it and people deserve to see what happened. Police were never in danger. They fired into a car that was already past them over alleged shoplifting of diapers.

Musk just warned Democrats he'll "come for" anyone who investigates him. Look, that’s not a threat. It's a dare. If Dems win the House and don't hit him hard on Day One, subpoenas in hand, every vote we cast drifts away in fear. He called the bluff. Now they have to call his.

Notwithstanding that Walmart has pressed no charges for any form of shoplifting, I don’t care if Kohen Wiley’s mother robbed the goddam safe inside Wal Mart—NOTHING justifies the police shooting and killing 1-year-old Kohen Wiley. 1/2

This is capitalist propaganda. Billionaires don't care about employees; they care about profits. Which is why they are far more likely to use cash on hand to buy back stock than hire more employees or give the employees already there a raise. This is just "Trickle Down Economics" in corporate drag.

Most billionaire wealth isn't in yachts or jewelry — that's just a few percent of it. Most is productive business capital: companies that employ people, build things, and fund research. Tax that wealth and you're taxing the businesses that employ us all. Cato's Adam Michel explains.

Ricardo Gonzalez, a 40-year-old U.S. citizen, was riding his e-bike in Long Beach, California, when ICE agents struck him with an unmarked vehicle and tased him twice. ICE thought he was someone else.

Video shows him pinned face down and handcuffed, crying because his arm was broken and begging for paramedics. Local police eventually got him to medical care. A bike ride in your own neighborhood should never end like this.

Ultra-wealthy donors are spending a staggering $430 million to fight state efforts to raise their taxes. If they can afford to drop millions of dollars to keep their taxes low, they can afford to pay slightly higher taxes. They’re making the case for taxing the rich better than anyone else could.
