"Lord, we pray that you lift up Ken Paxton, a serial adulterer who constantly bears false witness, covets material things-- like houses--and disgraces your holy name with his shameless corruption, so that we may continue not to pay taxes and hate all the same people he does. Glory!"

The first genuinely honest ad for generative AI I've ever seen, from Microsoft / CoPilot A mediocre white guy sees his non-white colleague getting praised for good work, he asks AI to *literally copy it*, and then he gets all the praise instead: www.ispot.tv/ad/SoDi/micr...

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 โ€” 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.

Bald and bronzed and old and wheezing The man from Mar-a-Lago's displeasing And when he passes gas Each one nearby goes, "Ugh!" (Ooh) But I watch him so sadly How can I tell him I despise him so madly? But when he walks to the sea I just frown Why canโ€™t the SOB just drown?

๐Ÿ˜ฌ Katie Zacharia's first press briefing was brutally bad ๐Ÿ˜ฌ Trump managed to find a press secretary who can barely read, but she does have the number one qualification -- looking like Ivanka Here's a supercut from Zacharia's first briefing, which made Karoline Leavitt seem like Ronald Reagan

Judge Kelly has temporarily extended White House access for CNN, MS NOW, and Politico while he considers a longer-term ruling regarding Trump's press ban. Kelly signaled sharp skepticism toward the administration's legal justifications, describing their defense as an "uphill climb".

I note how Christian Nationalists, who think the public execution of Jesus was the most horrific thing humans ever did, are giddy at the prospect of getting to watch a public execution on live streamingโ€”being so โ€œpro-lifeโ€ and all . . .

Any nation that live streams executions is a shithole country.

I am angry tonight. Because tonight ICE shot a New Yorker. They shot a New Yorker while his five year old child was in the car. ICE makes this city less safe. We want them out. Now.
