Elon Musk, once hailed as a “climate hero” for building his fortune on clean technology, has found an unlikely ally in his efforts: Big Coal. Joe Craft, billionaire CEO of the coal mining giant Alliance Resource Partners, has emerged as one of the top donors to Musk’s America PAC.

Thou shalt not blame a healthcare CEO’s murder on *checks notes* the video game “Among Us.”

everything is stupid

Imagine if the only practical way of getting packages was to pay an exorbitant monthly fee to Amazon, except when you actually need a package they deny it 30 percent of the time because they deem you don't need the item, and when they do deliver it, they charge you an unknowable random amount. 1/2

The NYTimes says it’s “unclear what motivated the [UHC Healthcare CEO’s] killing or whether it was tied to Mr. Thompson’s work in the industry.” The shooter wrote “deny, defend, depose” on the bullets and shot him walking into an investor meeting. Seems pretty clear to me!

CANADIAN Version of this series would have been boring. Man gets cancer... Man goes to Dr. because they have universal healthcare. The End.

REMINDER: Tesla has had more recalls than the Ford Pinto, the famous exploding car

Rudolph the Red Nose Reindeer is on tonight. The classic tale of when people treat you like shit until they find out you can do something for them. 🦌🦌🦌

The other day I was pitching our Gilded Age course to undergrads: “Have you ever wondered what it would be like to live in a nation where the wealthy had insane power and ordinary people were reoeatedly crushed by them until they lashed out in anger?”

Forever guilty on all counts.

Remember last year’s Spotify Wrapped with the deep dives into city stats and those clever blurbs that made you feel like an anthropologist of your own listening habits? This year feels like it was slapped together by ChatGPT after two Red Bulls. The layoffs are showing, and the charm is fading.

a few months ago i got recognized by a group in a bar and ended up chatting with them for awhile and met their friend who has cancer and struggling with the system for anyone confused why people feel catharsis or happy about what happened to the united CEO today, learn👇

if healthcare companies didn't have shareholder conferences a man would still be alive today. makes you think.

I won first prize at Ibiza short film festival Mal del Cap🥰 Heartfelt thanks to the organizers for your incredible hospitality!

the frenzy over the hunter biden pardon is a good reminder that the press knows how to make something a scandal and has decided that nothing trump does is truly deserving of that treatment

Give a man a fish, he'll eat for a day. Teach a man to fish, he'll contribute to the global overdepletion of the ocean. So give him a salad, maybe.

One of the points I stressed in Partisans is how vital non-conservative media were to laundering right-wing commentators’ views: James Kilpatrick on 60 Minutes, Pat Buchanan on CNN/PBS/MSNBC, Tucker Carlson on CNN/MSNBC, Glenn Beck on CNN. Right-wing media matter, but aren’t the whole story.

With Trump announcing Kash Patel to run the FBI, here’s our reporting from two weeks ago about how he showed his loyalty to Trump during the classified docs case when he refused to testify to the grand jury www.theguardian.com/us-news/2024...

TRUMP VOTERS: Biden is a terrible president for forcing airlines to give automatic refunds if they cancel our flight. Dummies about to find out… 📌 Delta CEO says Trump will take a “fresh look” at regulation.

Here is Trump’s nominee for FBI Director Kash Patel calling for “offensive operations” to jail Americans who they consider “the enemy.” “We will go out and find the conspirators... Yes, we are going to come after the people in the media."

I have spoken publicly abt concerns my clients, fed employees & others have w/incoming #Trump Admin re: retaliation. We are compiling lists of attnys, CPAs, Drs (counseling field) who wld be willing to provide pro bono services if necessary. If interested, please email me at [email protected].

It's not just that Bluesky has reminded me how awful X is. It's that Bluesky has reminded me how *boring* X is. The same trolls, the same ads, the same algorithms. This place, on the other hand, feels *alive*. Bluesky has 'the juice'!

"Elon Musk is doing an incredible job educating the public about how capitalists end up aligning with fascists to maintain their wealth and limit the power of the working classes." @maxberger.bsky.social 5/20/22

still wild to remember he was impeached twice and republicans let him slide. wild to remember the congressional hearings about Jan 6. wild to remember Merrick Garland waited so long. wild to remember 34 convictions and all those indictments wild to think how foolish we must look as a nation

A tariff is a TAX. The company pays it — then passes along the cost as a price increase to YOU. So Donald Trump is raising YOUR taxes 25% — in January.

Republicans spent three years saying Twitter being mean to Donald Trump cost him the 2020 election (by limiting one story for a few days). And we're supposed to say that Elon turning Twitter into a Trump campaign site in 2024 FOR THE ENTIRE ELECTION did not affect the election at all.

Why do cows have hooves instead of feet??? Because they lactose

Bondi must be asked at her confirmation hearing if Trump lost the election in 2020. Unless her answer is yes, the Senate must reject her nomination. You can't be an election denier & the attorney general joycevance.substack.com/p/gaetz-out

just a hunch, but based on what happened during covid, i think we're about to see a lot of industries use the chaos surrounding Trump's tariffs as cover to engage in illegal supply restrictions and and price-fixing

In all the discussion about how Trump won, there's almost no mention of how he destroyed Joe Biden by using Russian disinformation against Joe's only surviving son.

How many news stories did you read about the great flourishing of American entrepreneurship in recent years? What were all these new businesses up to? I don't recall those stories. Do you?

A Declaration of Independence from the Billionaires We can have democracy, or we can have billionaires. Not both. At least with these campaign finance laws.

First, the owner of the LA Times spiked the editorial board’s endorsement of Harris. Now he has gone full MAGA

NPR has spent the last few years softening its coverage to appease Republicans and here's their reward

My kingdom for a bookmark/save button

Being stuck in bumper to bumper traffic on the 10 and everyone had their windows down and everyone was listening to the new Kendrick but they were all different tracks was a very LA moment for me yesterday

Q: What do credit scores, health insurance, and right-to-work laws all have in common? A: They're all scams designed to transfer money from the disadvantaged and middle class to billionaires, with a net negative benefit to society at large

Law has never been “real.” Law is, (and has always been) about power, relationships, and people’s beliefs in structure. And I’ll be damned if I let people give up to the nihilist vision of Trump without fighting for the ideal of a nation of laws. The game is not over yet. Stop despairing and fight.

Dr. Oz??? 😂😂😂. This country is a ficking joke! Banana republics are less bananas!
