This aired just the once in 1998 on the live SNL show for which McKay wrote it. It was effectively banned as it never aired again. I wonder why. MEDIA-OPOLY

According to federal data, 13 of the top 20 cities in homicide rates have Republican governors. None of those cities are Chicago. 8 of the top 10 states in homicide rates are led by Republicans. None of those states are Illinois. And yet Trump is sending troops here.

Starbucks’ CEO made 6,666x more than the company's median employee in 2024. This was the widest CEO-to-Worker pay gap in the entire S&P 500. Remember this before you order your next pumpkin spice latte.

🧠🪱: You got help for substance use. Now you're (unfortunately) running CDC. So DO something - release the funding. Red tape — since DOGE — is worse than ever. It’s blocking addiction treatment funding. People—our friends, neighbors, family—could die. The fentanyl crisis is killing us.

The idea that some human beings should be treated as created in God’s image and some shouldn’t is the beginning of every kind of cruelty Christians carry out in the name of Christ. Every human being is created in God’s image and should be treated accordingly. Period.

We’ve truly lost our way in this country. An 80-year-old vet who fought for this country just got arrested protesting Trump‘s parade. He deserves respect, not handcuffs.

Zabernism [ZAB-ur-niz-im] (n.) - Unjustified or unwarranted use of military authority; military jackbootery; abusive bullying. Used in a sentence: “The fascist leader’s deployment of soldiers against the very citizens it was meant to protect will always be remembered as vainglorious zabernism.”

I’m hearing rumors that thousands of people are calling the ICE tip line to report little green men and other aliens from outer space. That’s not why ICE set up this number, so you should absolutely NOT call that tip line to report those types of aliens. 👽 I repeat—do NOT call the below number! ☎️

You can't call immigrants lazy moochers looking for government handouts and then round them up at Home Depots where you know they are looking for work. You can't say immigrants don't follow the rules and then round them up in courthouses where they are following the rules. Get your lies straight.
