Nature is the example. Evolution says brains over brawn. The reason for this mess is decades of declining education.

Nothing is more powerful than solidarity. On Workers’ Labor Day and every day, America’s unions are keeping up the fight to make sure we get our fair share ✊
GOP Rep. Thomas Massie has filed a discharge petition to force the disclosure of Justice Department investigative files related to the late sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein.
They saw a steady decline in visits from customers whose incomes are less than $45,000, and fastfood chains saw a 1% traffic drop in the second quarter. Almost never pay more than something is physically worth. The house your grampa built comes on the market. You find a van Gogh at a yard sale.

Duh, Der, duh, the Gulf of water?!?! 🤣🤣🤣
Voters are angry and not letting up. Good.
The largest SNAP cuts in history went into effect yesterday, eliminating or drastically cutting food assistance for millions of Americans. And it’s all to pay for more tax cuts that primarily benefit the super-rich. Trickle-down economics isn't just a hoax — it's cruel.
Pritzker: "I refuse to pretend that any of this is normal ... I refuse to fall into the pundit trap that demands we sacrifice vital constitutional rights if it's being done in the fake guise of fighting crime."
I know this sounds crazy, but shouldn’t the Secretary of Energy know something about energy?

Epstein survivors are currently behind closed doors with the House Oversight Committee today. For decades, their voices were silenced. Tomorrow, survivors step forward publicly at the Capitol.
It's an end run to get the fed to lower interest rates. It would be his 11th such unwarranted declaration of this term, and the 24th across both terms. The next highest came from GW Bush, which facilitated his unwarranted war. Without support of Congress these are acts against the American public.
I see a pattern here, do you? To illustrate a point, Puerto Rico is a better place to work than most if not all republican led states. #VoteSmart
This week there are two Epstein Files-related bills in Congress. One gives Republicans the power to decide what you see. The other releases EVERYTHING to the public & protects victims. I'm joining Reps. Massie & Khanna to protect victims & release ALL the files DIRECTLY to the people.
Hakeem Jeffries: "Donald Trump promised that he would lower housing costs on day one. Here's a suggestion for the Trump administration: try to legislate, and maybe we can find common ground in order to get something done for the American people."

I'm sure they were updating it. I'm not sure it reflects reality.

Are we filling a bingo card with how many days it will be until it's confirmed that the US used its military to decimate a Venezuelan fishing vessel, followed promptly by 'oops' from the Whitehouse and war crimes charges from the international criminal court?

I love that you proudly source a right wing conspiracy theorist....
Without a source it's tinfoil hat territory.
I said justifiable. Sanders didn't agree with everything Castro did, but acknowledged the things he did right. He was quite vocal in his criticism of Castro's abuses, as he has been with all authoritarian regimes. You are simply spreading misinformation. Or you don't read beyond the headlines.
Many Americans who generally distrust national news organizations still express trust in certain outlets
This article does not support your statement. It does outline the justifiable reasons he didn't support Kennedy then. As the Republicans moved further and further right, outside the park some might say, his need to vote with Democrats on key issues important to them both became more frequent.
No, he had one horse and two spoilers.
Go ahead and compare that to the felon's history with Russia.
Sanders trip to Russia with his wife was in outreach with a Vermont sister city. Putin's support of his presidential campaign was in an effort to take votes from Clinton, they supported Jill Stein also. Politifact fact checking outlines the reasons he voted against and for various Russia sanctions.

Just 52.9% of people over 25 in Al have a high school diploma. 24% have a bachelor's degree or higher. That number in between? About 23% have less than a diploma, 9% have no education at all. No skilled labor, poor school system, high crime, low wages. You won't be attracting US workers, just H-1Bs.

They know they’re breaking the law. They also know the courts will be slow to call them out on it. Meanwhile they get to do their damage and get the military used to domestic incursions. This ruling should halt any plans they have to invade Chicago. It won’t.

No. But it's well on its way to making itself into the RT of American news.
A federal appeals court ruled on Friday that most of Trump’s sweeping tariffs have no legal basis. Neal Katyal represents the businesses that initiated the tariff lawsuit against Trump.
Yes, I think it will undoubtedly have persuasive value in other federal court cases that will inevitably be brought, but I took the previous poster to be asking whether the decision would *directly* impact what's going on in DC.

This Labor Day, we took to the streets all across the nation, in defiance of the Trump regime, in rejection of the billionaire takeover, and in solidarity with one another. This movement is not slowing down. Every day, we are building people power from the bottom up—mobilizing to fight, and to win.

A judge ruled that most tariffs and unlawful. If this holds then the companies will be able to apply for a refund for tariffs paid. But those same companies passed along the tariffs to consumers without citing the increase in the receipts. So companies get a refund while consumer pay more. 'Murica
