The richest man on earth owns X.

The second richest man on earth is about to acquire TikTok and his family could soon own both Paramount and Warner Bros.

The third richest man owns Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp.

The fourth richest man owns The Washington Post.

See the problem here?

The NYT editorial board told Democrats that they must discard populism be more “centrist” to win. Stanford’s @adambonica.bsky.social ran the data that the NYT used and shows that the entire premise is false.
The New York Times’ “Moderation Advantage” Is a Statistical Illusion
After accounting for money and incumbency the supposed electoral bonus for moderate candidates vanishes entirely.

If SCOTUS buys this bullshit I’m all in on #CalExit. Birth right citizenship was in CA’s original constitution.
Also did he miss all the kids in those polio machines? What a moron.
That’s still a crazy amount of people supportive of demolishing a historic building.
Only 24% approve, and less than half of Republicans, of demolition at White House
I never underestimated how prevalent or powerful America’s latent racism was. But I never anticipated how much corruption, incompetence and cruelty my fellow Americans would tolerate in service of base urges.

“If the West Wing is the mind of the nation, then the East Wing is the heart.”

- former First Lady Betty Ford

The East Wing is gone.

Over a century of American history, reduced to rubble.

All to appease the vanity of a corrupt authoritarian.

Radical idea: The next Dem nominee should run on making bribery actually illegal. In every way.

The old rulebook is gone. It's not coming back and we all need to accept that. The DOJ is weaponized. the GOP is rigging elections. Trump is literally bulldozing the White House.

Democrats need to operate under this new reality, fight hard, and play by the same rules.

WASHINGTON (AP) — Trump pardons Binance's Changpeng Zhao, founder of largest crypto exchange, who admitted allowing money laundering.

All of the pilfering, vandalism, and outright death caused by DOGE cuts, and all of the thefts from the future by illegally stopping research grants, didn't save a penny, Trump spent the money and more on corruption and incompetent ICE goons.
Total federal spending is up +7% in 2025 over 2024 year-to-date to Oct 20.

The story that the fed govt is tightening its belt is contradicted by its own real-time expenditure data. Admin spectacularly hammering some things but raising spending elsewhere.

Was -7% just after Inauguration Day.
And “looks Latin American” is being construed very very broadly.

Maybe this is obvious to everyone but…why does the White House need a ballroom? It has enough space for state dinners, no? Is this for dances? Weddings? Storing classified documents?

Just confused so the reason would be helpful thx

The $20 billion the President is spending to bailout his friend in Argentina is almost enough to extend your health care credits for a whole year.

If they wanted to find the money they could. We don't suffer from a lack of resources, we suffer from leadership who fails to put people first.

I for one think the Epstein Ballroom will be magnificent. I love the decor theme of “what if Uday Hussein ran a Ramada Inn.” And giving it a theme song everyone will associate with it is a stroke of brilliance! “Thank Heaven for Little Girls” is very catchy.
Learn not *just* politics there, but GOVERNANCE. How government works in practice. Politics is only half of what you need to learn to be an effective and good elected official.
If you have more smoke for Mamdani than you do Trump, you’re not a serious person.
Rapaport’s insane obsession with Mamdani makes him look like his brain broke.

He hates American values and principles. He hates democracy. He despises the Constitution and its constraints. He hates most Americans. All he desires is money, power and staying out of jail. Am I missing something?
Thank you for pointing people at this.
Why do they keep acting like business as usual? *sigh*
