Tyson is closing a Nebraska plant that employs 3,200 workers in order to “right-size” its business.
The meatpacking giant paid its CEO $22.7M last year, 525x its median employee's pay.
It also spent $196M in stock buybacks to reward shareholders.
Textbook corporate greed.

60 Minutes just reminded us that Putin is a war criminal and all I could think of while watching that is remembering how our president embraced him like a hero. It’s disgusting how far we have fallen.

Independents outvoted Dems in 24 and were tied with Reps. They are crucial to either party in future. As an Indie myself, neither party is good at reaching out to the Indies. Arguably the Dems are worse at it. I believe either side could win back Indies if they became relevant, as Bernie says.

They didn’t tell the military to disobey Trump’s orders, they told the military to disobey unlawful orders.
Is this a confession from the president himself that his orders are unlawful?

Donald Trump spent months trying to tell Americans his tariffs weren't raising costs and that rising prices aren’t a problem.
Now, his plan to bring down costs is to roll back just a few of the tariffs that he imposed in the first place.
It’s time to repeal ALL of Trump’s reckless tariffs.
