America's largest private prison company is asking the Supreme Court to grant federal contractors blanket immunity from human trafficking laws.

What stage of capitalism is this?
The Human Trafficking Case That Could Hand Government Contractors Blanket Immunity
In a little-noticed Supreme Court case, the country’s largest private prison operator argues companies should be shielded from lawsuits when doing the government’s dirty work.

Billionaire Venture capitalist Ron Conway has resigned from the Salesforce Foundation after Marc Benioff called on President Trump to send in the national guard to San Francisco.

The NYT obtained the email Conway sent to Benioff.

Full Story: bit.ly/46Wylca
"Your obsession with and constant annual threats to move Dreamforce to Las Vegas is ironic, since it is a fact that Las Vegas has a higher rate of violent crime than San Francisco," Mr. Conway wrote. "San Francisco does not need a federal invasion because you don't like paying for extra security for Dreamforce."

The voters keep rejecting their initial project so now they're trying to get in the back door via Suisun. More billionaire bros who want their own 'sovereignty'.

Hated by most everyone, the abundance bros are now trying to buy Suisun City, CA. According to the CEO of California Forever, the city is on its "way to becoming California’s best example of the ‘abundance agenda."

By making the proposed city part of a town’s expansion project, California Forever can avoid voter approval in Solano County.

America First? Republican Sen. Tim Scott blocked Elizabeth Warren's bill seeking to stop Trump’s unprecedented $20 billion bailout of Argentina and its far right government. Warren sharply criticized Trump for giving Milei a massive handout while gutting health care benefits for millions at home.

Maybe poor little billionaire Marc Benioff can pay his own damn security for his DreamForce conference rather than suggesting the Felon Pig Don bring troops to SF. Should we help him pay for his parking too? So sick of these big baby billionaires.

“In April, Architect of the Capitol Thomas Austin told a House subcommittee that House Speaker Mike Johnson, a Louisiana Republican, had not instructed him to install the plaque. The speaker is responsible for any modifications to the House side of the Capitol, Austin noted.”

JD Vance can dismiss the Young Republicans as a college group chat.

But let's be clear: the group chat includes a State Senator, a Trump Admin official, and multiple Republican staffers — and some of the worst comments came from folks associated with Mike Johnson, Elise Stefanik, and Mike Lawler.
