Anyone else struck by how silent the Supreme Court has been while the executive branch is setting fire to the whole system?

Is anyone else having a bit of a hard time focusing right now? Knowing that a complete madman is turning friends and allies against the US & destroying our way of life is simply maddening to say the least

The whole point is to permanently undermine the public’s trust in government institutions, and it is scarily working quite well

It truly is sad, looking at how many friendships and families have been broken up due to the selfishness of others….

I can’t imagine the headspace required to cheer on the mass deportation of immigrants, especially if they themselves are immigrants or 2nd generation

The current housing shortage/crisis will get exponentially worse here very quickly if Donald Trump accomplishes even a fraction of the total deportations he is looking to carry out….

Re: Pete Hegseth

There are dozens of conservative generals that Donald Trump could have chosen that would have easily sailed through the Senate, but he chose a talk show host with a checkered history instead?

Is anyone else just a little bit disturbed that the federal government is likely going to shut down again in a matter of days?

Why is this a problem unique to the United States?

Is there a coherent reason why more left leaning political groups appear unable to form a cohesive front against a resurgent far right?

The French parliament, for example, passed a vote of no confidence despite several center & left parties agreeing to form a coalition this summer

That’s how most executives are compensated though, right? Most do receive a salary but the majority of their β€œpay” comes from stock options (with many being forced to cary a certain amount of stocks for their positions).

Activision Blizzard CEO Bobby Kotick Stepping Down After 32 Years With Gaming Company Kotick reportedly received more than $375 million following Microsoft’s acquisition of Activision Blizzard

I was thinking specifically of crap like this:

There are zero reasons anyone should be getting that kind of pay while thousands are simultaneously being laid off

Meanwhile, executive pay remains at all time highs!

At some point (probably in the not too distant future) we are going to have to clamp down on the rampant greed we are seeing from c-suites and force them to take more long term positions over the preferred short term

Not so fun fact: Grassley has already filed for reelection in 2028, when he would be 95 years old

We seriously need age caps on politicians
