Jeff Bezos’ Washington Post would not run this ad. This is the power of oligarchy.

Slap shot Yes!!

Tesla earned $2.3 billion in the United States in 2024. You'd think it paid a lot in taxes, right? Well it paid precisely $0 in federal income taxes last year. You want waste and fraud? Look at what some big corporations and the rich are getting away with.

One of my party facts is that according to polls, Americans believe foreign aid is about 25% of the federal budget and on average that it *should* be about 10%. The actual number is less than 1%. Foreign aid has long been a boogey man of the right, so it's not surprising they're vilifying it now.

HUGE BREAKING NEWS: Pete Buttigieg is seriously considering running for Senate in Michigan after Gretchen Whitmer says she wouldn’t run for the open seat. Smash that RT if you agree Secretary Buttigieg would make a FANTASTIC Senator!! 💙💙

Legal AF’s Michael Popok breaks down 7 new cases filed against Trump in just 24 hours! From blocking his attacks on the 14th Amendment to exposing his corrupt private prison scheme—PLUS a bombshell affidavit on Pete Hegseth. Tune in at 8p ET/5p PT! youtube.com/live/jKLGxVv...

So far Trump has issued a lawless order reinstating TikTok, pardoned 174 people who assaulted police officers, incorrectly identified the Gulf of Mexico, and the media is so scared they’re not showing the Shadow President’s Nazi salute. It’s not yet 9:00 on the east coast.

Bloomberg says that Trump will immediately declare a national energy emergency. We all know why — it will be about gutting environmental protection. But still worth noting that US energy is actually doing fine, with production > consumption and exports > imports 1/

I’m not watching. The 13th Amendment specifically says that I do not have to listen to white people on MLK Day. And I respect the Constitution.

The temperature at noon on Monday will be 22 degrees which is the same temperature it was in 1961 when Kennedy was inaugurated. The ceremony was held outside.
