So the supreme court hearings happened today. Trump's solicitor general made some insane claims. Basically they want to destroy the entire court system's ability to put injunctions on the admin's criminal behavior. Instead they want each victim to file a class action lawsuit. Which is harder.

So apparently a big jump in the market today was Reuters posting fake news from a random tweet claiming tariffs are paused just because the account had the name Bloomberg. So I guess we all need to call into Reuters claiming to be Bloomberg and we can cause trillion dollar swings for fun.

Hey conservatives you doing alright? "I sleep to the sounds of chains and children weeping."

SHARE WIDELY. KNOW YOUR RIGHTS. With mass deportations starting today across the country, it is vitally important - for both citizens and non-citizens - to know your rights. You have the right to remain silent. Assert it. You have the right to a lawyer. Ask for one. (1/3)

LA fires are being fought with prison labor who are paid pathetic wages. They should be paid proper wages. Low wage firefighters is incentive to imprison people. There should never be monetary incentive to put people in prison. its there to protect society and rehabilitate people. Not cut costs.

Mike Luckovich gets it right as he always does

James Wood: "I HOPE THERE IS NO CEASEFIRE!" Monkey paw finger curls, unceasing fire consumes his home.

Billionaires and corporations that rake in endless profit with things like stock buybacks just absorb all the wealth from everything around them until it all collapses. They are the social and economic equivalent to tumors. Its societal cancer that grows until the host can't support it and dies.

UHC is not a healtheare company. Its purpose is to profit from denying care and pocketing the premium, thereby contributing to mass suffering & DEATH, not health. So make sure to label it accordingly: It is DEATHCARE

Between the aggressive overcharging of Luigi to the crackdown on the Amazon strikers I don't think its ever been this clear. Police are not here to protect and serve you. They are enforcers of the status quo powers. They are here to make sure us peons don't get too big for our britches.

Chris Murphy: "I read the headlines about the Liz Cheney criminal referral and almost every single one of them in mainstream media played this straight as if it was a normal function of legislative power, instead of telling the truth, which is that this is made up out of thin air."

Explain this, humankind

Timely.
