Why are we not working 15-hours a week as John Maynard Keynes predicted?
This is related to what David Graeber calls: 'Bullshit Jobs.'

Thank you, Rep. Randall, for putting community safety first and calling out lawless federal actions that put lives at risk. Enough is enough!

🎩 While visiting Detroit a worker calls Trump a pedophile protector
Trump says “Fuck you” twice before giving the man the middle finger
Trump doesn’t want anyone talking about him & Jeffrey Epstein
He always lashes out when questioned just like when he called the reporter “Piggy”
HE’S GUILTY

The administration has made it clear that Nicolás Maduro's capture was tied to Venezuela's vast oil reserves. Much less certain is how US companies will actually access them—or if they even want to. www.wired.com/story/trump-...

Since Stephen Miller is in the midst of another of his Aryans-only trantrums, we should note that his family are 20th century immigrants from the shtetl of Antopol (Антопаль) then in the Hrodna gubernia of Russia. Applying his immigration rules, they would all have perished in the Holocaust.
Stephen Miller Is an Immigration Hypocrite. I Know Because I’m His Uncle.
If my nephew’s ideas on immigration had been in force a century ago, our family would have been wiped out.

Massie on Johnson: "He wants to create a provision of this law that would exempt the very people we're trying to expose -- the men who raped these women. He says, 'We'll make sure they are credible allegations.' Is he calling the survivors we witnessed today un-credible? That's the implication"
