It's ridiculous that CEOs require millions of dollars in compensation when most employees under them are living paycheck to paycheck. So many problems in this world are caused by greed.

Not a big story, it's just the Attorney General working with an imprisoned pedophile to help cover up the pedophile President's crimes conducted with his best friend for 15 years, a pedophile who the President sent, as a birthday card, a drawing of a naked adolescent girl.

This report is genuinely overwhelming, in terms of the evidence both against Trump and of a ham-fisted cover-up. Including one instance in which Ghislaine Maxwell was actually about to mention one of Trump's young accusers and Todd Blanche told her to stop talking. The media response is "yawn."

I know there's a lot going on but I feel it should probably be more of an above-the-fold story that members of Congress released a thoroughly documented report directly accusing the president of the United States of being a serial rapist.

There can never be another "water under the bridge" administration ever again, and part of that is going to involve shaming everyone on board with this one - voters included - as the disgusting pig racists they are

i don't think anyone should run explicitly on banning online gambling but i do think that a democratic-led government should just quietly take steps to undermine the industry and create an inhospitable regulatory environment

Lula won in part by banning online gambling

How racist and desperate do you have to be to look at this and say, β€œGot β€˜em!”?

The White House put an AI video of Hillary, Chuck, Hakeem, Kamala, and Ilan jamming out to The Gap Band’s β€œOutstanding” like a Tiny Desk concert and described Democrats as β€œwashed up,” but damn they never looked cooler. Total self-own.

i am inviting anyone from a legacy media organization to explain to me why the house judiciary dems report on trump’s epstein’s ties and multiple allegations of rape isn’t worthy of extensively reporting on. i’m serious. i want to understand.

It's really important to pay attention to the fact that Lula beat the fascist candidate not by compromising and trying to meet fascist voters in the middle, but by sticking to his guns, promising prosecutions for election interference, and mobilising his own voters to turn out in greater numbers.

This is their goal. Republicans and Democrats are fighting for this. Everyone who isn't cis, straight, and white doesn't get to be a full member of society, or even exist at all. In many places, Democrats are running full-on Christian nationalist campaigns, where non-christians are being degraded.

They called the cops on this 3-year-old Black boy because he was kickin the white kids' ass on the soccer field.

You don't need that Starbucks latte. 12,000 baristas have organized. They've spent years fighting for a fair first contract. They're demanding better pay, more hours, safe staffing and basic protections. Support the workers, not the corporation stonewalling them. Boycott Starbucks!

The Iranian regime could ultimately fall if a devastating direct strike on its leadership is paired with military measures never used before. Past operations already set a precedent for this kind of strike.

3 hours ago the Brazilian Supreme Court rejected any challenge to the election results. Just now Flavio Bolsonaro has dropped his objections. Lula is President it cannot be stopped, and Flavio Bolsonaro will be going on trial for corruption. And then to jail.

As parents we have choices: 1) get to know our kids, as people, over time, by spending time with them. 2) ask an overhyped computer program to describe them for us, then - gotta go, off to another marketing meeting! SILICON VALLEY PARENTS know that 2 is what EPIC WINNERS do.

This is the President of the United States just said that Abdul El-Sayed β€” BORN IN MICHIGAN, a Rhodes Scholar with an MD from Columbia and a doctorate from Oxford β€” is a physical threat who needs to go through a metal detector before entering the Senate. Why? Because he’s Muslim.

Khanna: I kind of feel bad for James Carville. It’s like watching an athlete who’s been in ten seasons too long, and you know he’s lost his fastball. Someone has got to just say, β€œJames, you had a great run in 1992. Just enjoy retired life.”

The war in Iran is driving diesel costs through the roof for families across Alaska. And Dan Sullivan has now voted 14 times to extend it.

They're fucking contract soldiers! They all voluntarily signed a dotted line. Russian law bars Putin from sending conscripts into foreign combat zones! He didn't even have the balls to send conscripts to fight in Kursk...RUSSIAN TERRITORY... that's why he brought in the North Koreans.
