People think stamps are expensive now? Say goodbye to rural mail delivery. I feel sorry for all those people who get their meds by mail because they aren't near or physically able to get to a pharmacy. www.washingtonpost.com/business/202...

Being called out as the "worst ___ in the history of the world" by the Trump regime isn't so bad. You'll be knocked from that top slot in less than five minutes as they label the next thing they don't like as "the worst".

"Republicans care about the working man!" Instead of focusing on lowering costs, they are attempting to roll back CFPB overdraft fee limits so banks can charge you exorbitant amounts.

Last night Timothy Snyder talked with Rachel about the idea of a shadow government to serve as a model and reminder of what is possible from a government of qualified people instead of Fox guests and family members. It came up twice, actually. Here's 1 of 2.

It's nice to see our elected officials focusing on the "kitchen table issues" that will lower costs for everyday US citizens.

Giving a 20-something, unvetted techbro Musk acolyte admin access with read/write privs to the US Treasury (with no oversight) is not only illegal but extremely stupid. Should any of this data fall into US enemy's hands it's game over. www.wired.com/story/elon-m...
