I’m fairly certain that the number of people who have successfully milked a bear can be counted on one hand. Assuming the bear didn’t rip off said hand.
If Great Britain was a nation of shopkeepers, America is a nation of advertisers.

1/2 Matt Stoller's devastating take-down of "The single most important neoliberal thinker of the last forty years - economist Larry Summers - had an extensive and deep political and personal relationship with Epstein".

The Blast Radius of Jeff Epstein
Larry Summers controlled two Presidents, Bill Clinton and Barack Obama, and organizes economists and oligarchs. Joe Biden talked to him all the time. And now he's in a serious scandal. Or is he?

A white guy shoots a white internet troll, therefore terrorize black folks. Just checking if I got the logic right.

Average weeks of unemployment is ticking up. Normally this happens at the start of recession. Continuing claims are still low, relative to historical norms, but rising. The job market is getting worse (as the recent jobs numbers indicated).

Remember when TVs didn't feel broken and the interface consisted of a button and two knobs? What does this have to do with the fall of our modern world?

There's also a community of folks that would rather go protest than vote. Voting is boring. And some think - what does voting matter if my state is 'safe?' Those votes add up in the popular vote tally. That is a barometer for legitimacy.

Vote - because elections have consequences.

Fuck you Trump. Fuck you ICE. Cowards all. This must not be who we are. We must not allow it. So it’s our duty now to stop ICE. It’s our duty now as free citizens to peacefully obstruct & interfere with Trump’s & ICE’s lawless thuggery. It’s time for real civil disobedience. It’s past time.👇

"Yeah, that’s police," he comforted his child before pleading with agents.

"There is a baby in the car. Is it hard to wait for three minutes?"

The US withdrawal from UNESCO, like the January withdrawal from WHO, will help China consolidate its hold over the language and practices of the UN system.

The US Trump DOJ to meet with Ghislaine Maxwell in what increasingly appears to be part of a secret kickback.

It’s obvious Trump is going to leverage a pardon in exchange for Maxwell testifying in his favour. The fix is in.
