While Amazon touts the surveillance state enabled by its Ring cameras, remember...
Amazon's U.S. tax bill dropped by 87% in 2025, mostly thanks to Trump's tax cuts.
Meanwhile, its profits jumped by 45% to nearly $90 billion — and it announced 30,000 job cuts.
Is this the world we want to live in?

Abolish ICE is not enough.
Stern words for Greg Bovino or Kristi Noem is not enough.
We need prosecutions and trials.

Watching another show where big climax is "we release the information showing how corrupt the politician is and then he goes to jail and good triumphs!" And the suspension of disbelief required for this to work for me now is on par with: "a flying unicorn came down from Valhalla and killed him."

Wow! Yay! The Senate just rejected Trump’s proposed science cuts, voting 82–15 to boost funding for NOAA, NASA, and the NSF. The bill already passed the House 397–28. Strong bipartisan support for science still exists.

It's an old and obvious pattern. An unpopular president - failing on the economy and losing his grip on power at home - decides to launch a war for regime change abroad.
The American people don’t want to “run” a foreign country while our leaders fail to improve life in this one.

It's great that reporting on the double tap has spotlighted the abject criminality of this Administration.
But don't forget: Venezuela is not waging war on America or Americans, and the men killed were not combatants.
The first strike was every bit as illegal as the second.

The real choice Democrats face is not between a continuing resolution that allows the government to function normally or a government shutdown.
Under the Trump regime, the government is not functioning normally. It is already shutting down.

I am pretty sure the people have spoken. This isn't what we want. And the whole point of this weekend? A message to our current president: No Kings. You work for us, not the other way around.

All of us who are US citizens suffer from moral injury from the things done in our name, including the denial of basic needs this country can well afford to address, including healthcare to all immigrants. It would heal that moral injury to do this; it's an ethical act, not just a practical one.
I'm sorry, but what's wrong with giving health care to immigrants? Republicans don't even want to give health care to citizens, but I don't understand the argument against keeping people who contribute billions of dollars to the economy healthy. It's also less expensive in the long run.
