What about the employers who profit off undocumented immigrants??
Is there a CBS poll on that??

Tim Sweeney doesn’t care.
He has money to burn and needs more folks building to the Fortnite / Epic engine.
But it’s also potentially a new creator economy.
Creative mode in Fortnite has generated a lot of custom maps, etc.

So in the US - people think professional wrestling is real.
Linda McMahon got her money being married to Vince McMahon who ran the fake wrestling.
So it just makes sense that appointing a millionaire with no public education background would lead to this moment in the dumbing down of America.

Hold them to account how??
The only hope is midterms.
Trump is 78 and ignoring public feedback.
MAGA / GOP does what Trump (or whoever pulls his strings) wants.
Find a 2026 candidate and vote them in.
Find local races and run for office.
That’s it.
Trump has 2 years to cause chaos.

Taking a walk in nature doesn’t cost anything so it’s free to me and it provides value.
Right?

DripDrop is a Public Benefit Corp.
Unilever owns Liquid IV.
Buy DripDrop not Liquid IV if you have a soul.

Has anyone confirmed that is in there??
Modern translations of the official Arabic treaty confirm that no such phrase exists in the text.

The branding was pretty subdued.
The food vendors were amazing.
The Blue Stage performers were really good.
The whole vibe was great even in the rain.
