Walmart is officially a trillion-dollar company.
Today the retail giant joined the ranks of Meta, Tesla, Amazon and more to pass a $1 trillion market cap.
Meanwhile, starting pay at Walmart is as low as $14/hour, and thousands of its workers have to rely on SNAP and Medicaid.

Beshear: Let me be clear. The president has both the funding and the authority to fund snap during a shutdown. In fact, every other president in every other shutdown has done so. People going hungry in this instance is a choice that this president has made.

I don’t know how many times I’ve watched this video.
I don’t know how we’ve gotten to the point where men in full balaclavas can abduct daycare teachers while they’re watching children.
But I do know that this isn’t sustainable. Abolish ICE. There is no way to reform this.

Hot take: people should be able to call the police to verify if they think they’re being kidnapped by men in masks who won’t identify themselves in unmarked cars without it being a “resisting” crime

I think this is true, which is why you can expect a full-on assault on ranked choice from both major parties over the next year-plus. They'll frame it as "your vote doesn't count in ranked choice," which won't be true or make sense, but when has that stopped any of them
Feels like ranked choice was absolutely decisive in this race—not because of the vote count, but because of how it changed the incentives from zero-sum to cooperapetitive. It allowed a fractured left field to align organically through co-endorsements instead of falling into a circular firing squad.

ICE has declared they’re not subject to an existing federal law requiring they allow members of Congress to perform unannounced oversight.
It’s not an ambiguous issue—they simply think they’re above the law.
