honestly wild to me that, at this late date, any ostensibly informed person would insist that we could ignore trump’s words as just bluster

The Commerce Department just made it easier for states and municipalities to use government subsidies to buy Musk’s Starlink internet service. When Musk's many ethics conflicts are tallied up, it will make Warren G. Harding’s Teapot Dome scandal look like a game of checkers.

In @naomiaklein.bsky.social’s 📕“Doppelgänger”, she says we are now “reaping the harvest” of decades of an attack on “the very concept of a public good” — the idea that we are all in this together, and government can be used for good. (Aka @marshablackburn calling everything “socialism”)

"One of the great tragedies of mankind is that morality has been hijacked by religion. So now people assume that religion and morality have a necessary connection. But the basis of morality is really very simple and doesn't require religion at all." Arthur C. Clarke

Amazon and Walmart are the largest US companies by both revenue and number of employees. But 87% of jobs for Amazon and 91% for Walmart pay less than $20/hr. Meanwhile, Jeff Bezos is worth $229B and the Walton family is worth roughly $270B. See the problem here?

Jeff Bezos said this week he'd help Trump gut regulations. Reminder that Amazon has been accused of repeatedly violating major antitrust, labor, and worker safety laws. Don't be fooled: Deregulation will only pad his wallet at the expense of working people.

American, Delta, United, Frontier and Spirit collected more than $3 billion in seat fees in 2023. It's time to ban these wicked junk fees. Everyone deserves the chance to fly — without being ripped off.

I was already excited to click on a news story about Rudy Giuliani having a meltdown in court today and YELLING at the judge. But nothing prepared me for the courtroom sketch

A whining Rudy Giuliani asked a judge for special treatment today, saying “I have no car, no credit card, no cash, everything I have is tied up, they have put stop orders on my business accounts, and I can’t pay my bills.” I’m sorry, but boo f*cking hoo.
