“The throughline of all of Mr. Trump’s criminal efforts was deceit—knowingly false claims of election fraud—and the evidence shows that Mr. Trump used these lies as a weapon to defeat a federal government function foundational to the United States democratic process.”

Wow!
If you think it's expensive now, you haven't seen anything yet. Coffee and chocolate are going to become luxury goods as a result of climate change.
Coffee hasn't been this expensive in decades—see how much prices have risen since 1985 in one chart
Grocery-store coffee prices rose 41% in a year, a surge the U.S. hasn’t seen in decades.

A woman recently went viral for holding up a window sign during a traffic stop, part of a growing trend of drivers using cards to assert their rights instead of speaking to police.

If telling the troops not to follow illegal orders is “sedition,” what do we call colluding with the Kremlin to manipulate the U.S. President into advancing Russian interests over America’s?

By his own standards and his insistence on scapegoating and blaming, Trump should either explain why he and his administration granted Asylum to the DC shooter suspect SEVEN MONTHS AGO, fire Noem and Homan and apologize - or Trump should resign

The subtext in JD Vance asking for "patience" on the economy: When leaders stop talking about current conditions and jump straight to rosy forecasts, they’re signaling the present isn’t defensible. That’s your cue to scrutinize the numbers, not just the narrative.

Good point. Focused.
There are plenty of other businesses that deserve to be on this list. But it's easier to get mass action that has a financial impact by focusing our energy on a few. Let others wonder if they'll be the next target.
