Months after killing Democrats’ plan to extend tax credits that lower the cost of YOUR insurance, Republicans still have NO plan to prevent YOUR premiums from skyrocketing.
While millions of Americans are about to see their costs increase, Republicans are twiddling their thumbs.

Layoffs have hit over 1.1M so far this year — the most since the pandemic.
Yet corporate profits continue to hit record highs, with corporations increasingly spending those earnings on stock buybacks to enrich execs and shareholders.
This is what a rigged economy looks like.

Trump just pardoned a guy his own DOJ indicted in July for conspiracy to rig a bidding process to build an arena in Texas.
Beyond the obvious corruption here, it’s a slap in the face to the law enforcement officials who investigated and brought this case forward.
Sends a chilling message, IMHO.

Every single city they've done these operations in have Black mayors. LA, Chicago, Charlotte, New Orleans. 3 of which are Black women. This isn't a coincidence.

Killing Shipwrecked Survivors is Not Just Illegal—It Endangers U.S. Servicemembers
If the United States chooses a path where killing defenseless survivors becomes acceptable, American servicemembers will pay the price for that choice.

The most precious commodity you have is your attention. You don’t have to waste it on poor-faith debates or arguments with strangers if you don’t think they’ll be productive. You can prioritize the things that matter to you and make your life richer.

I happily donate to Wikipedia, incredible resource in this day and age especially.
I take Wikipedia for granted. Reading this Jimmy Wales interview reminded me in our Fantasyland age what a remarkable and important creation it is. True pillar of civilization. Runs on only $200 million a year. Requires our support. So I’m finally donating. Gift link: www.nytimes.com/2025/10/18/m...

Hey so as someone who has a degree in global politics and spent a significant amount of time studying international law — this is a textbook example of a war crime.

It’s really interesting to see which government officials and members of Congress are comfortable publicly writing on social media that they’re fine with service members carrying out unlawful orders and abandoning The Constitution. Someone should start a list.

The President of the United States just called for Democratic members of Congress to be executed. "HANG THEM", he posted.
If you're a person of influence in this country and you haven't picked a side, maybe now would be the time to pick a fucking side.

No lawmaker in Congress should be able to buy, own, and sell individual stocks. Period. Let's make Congressional stock trading illegal.

In the century leading up to 1975, nearly 6000 freighters went down in the Great Lakes.
The Edmund Fitzgerald was the last.
The last. In 50 years, not a single commercial freighter has been lost in the Great Lakes.
Why?
It's NOAA. Of course it's NOAA.
