Amazon just announced another round of 16,000 layoffs, months after it laid off 14,000 workers.
Reminder that Amazon CEO Andy Jassy raked in over $40M in 2024.
And Amazon is spending at least $75 million producing and promoting the Melania documentary.
The system is rigged.

we call on the guy who wants to kill us to please be nice to us instead. he should definitely NOT make us look impotent and ridiculous by simply ignoring this request
Rep. Lieu: “Greg Bovino last night made a post that essentially called protesters, ‘cannon fodder.’ He needs to delete that post, or he needs to resign…If Greg Bovino and the administration doesn't turn down the rhetoric, it's going to cause more people to get killed.”

the actual story here, which the media never talks about, is that police in this country have become a discrete right-wing political operation. the story isn't about cops leaving (they're lying about that), it's about the police trying to exert influence over elections.

Dems backed Trump into a corner where he’s advocating for starving Americans and hemorrhaging support. If they vote to let him off the hook in exchange for nothing it’s a cataclysmic failure. I know people are in pain but insulating Republicans from political consequences is not the answer.

People will be mad at me for saying this, but I think we have to do it. Nothing is more important for the future of this country, and indeed humanity, than the app that makes you schizophrenic and helps you forget how to learn. The juice is worth the squeeze.

i am getting increasingly irritated by the idea that i (a private citizen who reliably presses the button for even Democrats I hate) am obligated to shut up so as to protect a democracy i am apparently not allowed to participate in, but that literal employees of Democratic politicians are not.

at some point, and i say this without hyperbole or hysteria, we are about to become one of the few major nations that i am aware of to give virtually nothing to its citizenry except the boot. virtually every other country at least pretends it some sort of obligation to its people
RON JOHNSON says Trump and Senate leaders agreed to back Rick Scott's amendment to phase out the 90% Medicaid match for expansion population under the ACA.
"We can't afford it," said Johnson, expressing confidence they can get the votes.
Guts part of Obamacare...

People have had their head in the sand on this for my entire adult life and if you're scared of things like court reform because you see yourself as a sensible Moderate I regret to inform you that court reform IS THE MODERATE SOLUTION and always has been. You don't want to hear the real solution.

the most appalling part of this political era is the physical harm they are inflicting on innocent people but secondary to that i find the constant smug lectures from this country's biggest collection of hypocrites, scammers, perverts, pedophiles, and overall bozos very distasteful
