A worker making $50,000 a year contributes to Social Security with 100% of their income. A CEO making $20 million a year contributes to Social Security with less than 1% of their income. Does that sound fair to you?

Remembering Chevalière d'Éon for Pride. A transgender woman in the 1700s who was also a spy and who turned double agent, extorted an entire monarchy to get her gender marker changed, and lived her life as a woman in a time when such was thought impossible. We have always been here.

Why are so many law enforcement officers wearing masks now? Embarassed?

So glad to see that cursive writing isn't a lost skill after all. #WestAdams

Honolulu police say they are launching a review after attorneys accused officers of arresting sober drivers to meet quotas. The ACLU of Hawaii says it has identified at least 127 people arrested from 2022 through 2024 who had blood alcohol levels of 0.00.

No kings, masters, overlords or any of that bullshit. Time to take the country back.

They’re not banning books because they’re dangerous—They’re banning them because they expose the truth. 📚 Erased tells the history they tried to bury—& now they’re coming for it. If it’s “too dangerous to teach,” you need to read it. ⚠️Read it before they ban it for good: stan.store/gxldsociety/...

The people of Missouri made it very clear: They wanted abortion rights (at least until fetal viability). Alas, the Missouri Supreme Court doesn’t seem to be inclined to listen.

Trump and his stupid supporters have been completely humiliated by the unanimous decision of the US court of International Trade invalidating his illegal tariffs. The 3 person court, comprising Reagan, Obama & Trump appointees wrote a powerful decision, crushing Trump’s behavior.

Take off your masks. It's almost as if you know you're not in the right here.

I was going to write a diatribe, but this really sums it up!

Tale of 2 Americas.

Journalism. Free speech. The rule of law. “All under attack,” said ‘60 Minutes’ correspondent Scott Pelley. “Diversity is now ‘illegal.’ Inclusion, a dirty word.” At Wake Forest, he didn’t give a speech. He rang the alarm. 👏👏👏 #BlueSky #MedSky #NewsSky

Science is an economic driver in Hamilton, Mont., thanks to Rocky Mountain Laboratories, a federal research lab. Now, layoffs and funding cuts are having an impact in this town far from Washington.

Happy Saturday 🌞......

Prominent attorney Mark Zaid said Paul, Weiss made a “decision to simply capitulate in fear rather than stand up for the rule of law and the ethical principles that guide lawyers.” thehill.com/regulation/c...

People who put their religious beliefs ahead of our Constitution and facts and science should not be allowed to hold public office in America.

No lies detected from The Great Jon Stewart 👇 #ResistTrump

Zach is always a must read on Trump's crypto schemes. He doesn't just say what's happening, he explains it clearly.

Eye for a eye Retribution for Retro

So we’ve got $90 million to throw the parade he wanted, but we don’t have the money to fix North Carolina. Got it!

The cruelty is the point.

I hope ICE agents get the Gestapo justice they deserve. No masks allowed at the trials. Documentation will survive to identify each and every single one of you. Following orders will take you away from your family and behind bars

When he showed up to an immigration meeting in Memphis, Kasper Eriksen thought he was on the verge of becoming a citizen. Then ICE arrested the Mississippi father of four, not even giving him a chance to say goodbye to his wife, whisking him away to a prison. @nickjudin.bsky.social reports:

Federal judge dresses down Alina Habba: "Your role is not to secure convictions at all costs, nor to satisfy public clamor, nor to advance political agendas. Your allegiance is to the impartial application of the law, to the pursuit of truth and to the upholding of due process for all."

A new analysis estimates the Trump/GOP budget's rollback of clean energy tax credits will eliminate nearly 830,000 jobs by 2030 and raise energy prices by 50% by 2035.  Just another way the "big beautiful bill" will make the economy worse and your life more expensive.

Kamala was right...Hillary was right....ANITA HILL WAS FRIGGIN RIGHT..........

WTF is the War Department? We truly have put the dumbest f^cks in the country in charge.

Everything he touches goes bankrupt.
