Can the media STOP referring to Jeffrey Epstein as a “financier”? The money he made came from SEX TRAFFICKING MINORS, RAPING CHILDREN, and BLACKMAIL. He was NOT a financier. I’ve seen at least five stories from three outlets refer to him this way in the past week. This is the latest from the Times:
Are we sure he is NOT there?
Don't be as dumb as we were/are
Among other things
Yeah thas not workin
Three years on, the 'significant sum' paid out by Prince Andrew has still not reached accuser Virginia Giuffre's charity www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article...

On the water in front go Chief Justice John Roberts summer home on Upper Island. There were about 25 people in 17 boats ranging from paddle boards, kayaks, canoes, row boats and one motorized Zodiac. On the dock was several dozen people with signs. Thanks to Audacity CAT for pulling this together.

The last 3 years have been the hottest in around 125,000 years. CO2 levels are their highest in MILLIONS of years. But most people have no idea this is happening, let alone what it means for our kids’ futures. Our politics & media have failed our children. We should be furious.
Yuk yuk yuk

“Freedom“ in America now means that the people who claimed they couldn’t say anything now literally can tell you what you can and cannot say.
This “explicit” is a weird editorial choice. The constitution gives the president no power over this at all. It’s not ambiguous.
The very rich Peter Thiel is behind a lot of the destruction of pur democracy going on right now, and he thinks the rest of us little people are just in his way.

A data center is not a person
We will see.
Why only if
If and only if a civil war ever breaks out in this country, the first and most important thing that must be destroyed is the datacenters. They’re not just tools, they’re weapons.
SIGNS OF FASCISM 🪧
They're releasing the Epstein files?

Guys nothing happened. However, CEOs are still trying to convince you that quiet quitting is worse than wage theft, while planning on replacing you with a robot and charge you for the robot’s rent Unions know better. Happy Labor Day Weekend.

Here's something I think a lot of folks don't yet understand, but 16 states' worth of CVSes refusing to give out Covid shots *is* actually preventing people from accessing them. They are the biggest pharmacy chain in the country and they own Aetna insurance, often forcing those clients to use CVS.

Old Soviet joke for today: A man walks into a newsstand every day, looks around, and leaves. After a long time of this, the owner says “Can I help you find something?” “I’m looking for the obituaries.” “The obituaries are in the back of the newspaper, comrade.” “Not the one I’m looking for.”

Lindsey Halligan is right. We shouldn't prioritize the comfort of the ultra-rich with accommodations like massive tax breaks and enormous pay inequity. That's what she's talking about here, right?
"I pledge allegiance to the Flag of the United States of America, and to the Republic for which it stands, one nation under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for 98% of the population.”
BREAKING: A U.S. appeals court has ruled that most of Trump’s “reciprocal” tariffs...imposed under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act...are illegal...arguing that the president overstepped authority reserved for Congress. Tariffs stay in place during appeal.

Being in the US w/o proper authorization is a misdemeanor on par with reckless driving. It is not a felony. There is no direct victim. The way we treat immigrants is like summary execution: no due process, no justice. Straight to punishment in the extreme. Why would any Dem want any part in that?

The idea of “unskilled labor” is a classist myth used to justify poverty wages.
