This is fu*king outrageous! The federal government on Saturday dismissed charges against a Utah plastic surgeon accused of throwing away COVID-19 vaccines, giving children saline shots instead of the vaccine and selling faked vaccination cards. apnews.com/article/utah...

AOC: "It is unconscionable that what we are debating right now is legislation that will give 8 senators over $1 million a piece & we're robbing people of their food assistance & healthcare to pay for it. How can we vote to enrich ourselves by stealing from the American people?"

These dogs were spotted taking a group photo in their Halloween costumes. We're impressed by the dog walker's dedication to getting the shot, but that ghost definitely wishes he could actually disappear. 14/10 for all (TT: franklinbarkzoo)

David Hogg made his first endorsement against a Democratic incumbent, making good on his promise to target elected officials who're “asleep at the wheel." In June, our friends at @revealnews.org spoke with the former DNC chair about how he plans to shake up the establishment.

Last year our electricity bill for the month of August in this exact same apartment with about the same energy usage was $117, this year it's $340. A trip to the grocery store for a week's worth of food has gone from $100 to $200+, but less food is purchased. How. How are we supposed to live.

The fact that Matthew Dowd lost his job for pointing out Charlie Kirk’s hate speech, while Brian Kilmeade openly suggests we should euthanize the homeless and there is zero outrage, shows exactly what is terribly wrong with today’s political mainstream media.

BREAKING: An Illinois county removed a massive Ten Commandments monument from government property after we sued. This is a victory for religious freedom.

Pharmacy trolls are killers. The drug boards are in control. As a nurse I have been mandated to destroy my patients' meds after they die. Thousands just tossed into a bin of solvent to destroy them. I wouldn't do it. We had a crabby ass pharmacist. I told her she'd have to do it.

The importance of union jobs extends far beyond the paycheck. They provide a collective voice for employees that ensures they have a say in their working lives and are treated with dignity and respect. Supporting unions means supporting better lives for all of the workers in them.
