2023, THE MEDIA: Egg prices are generally steady, but in a few places, they went up as much as $0.07. Here's why Biden should be impeached for that.

2025, THE MEDIA: Fresh fruit and vegetable prices are jumping a whopping 40%. Here's why the White House tariffs are a winning strategy for consumers.

James Doohan?

Cancel culture is real!

🚨ALERT🚨 A group of about 10 Secret Service, ICE HSI, and DHS police have been spotted across various locations around Adams Morgan, the Columbia Heights metro, the triangle park at Harvard and 16th St NW in Mount Pleasant, and at the Ft. Totten metro between 8 and 9 PM today (8/8). 1/

In much the same way that Paraguay's existence suggests the existence of Normal Guay.

Moreover, most rich people got rich through a business. Moving would require moving the business, which is expensive and you're likely to lose a hunk of valuable employees. The question this tax asks is whether you'd rather pay less taxes or make more money. The answer is obvious.

This is so perfect. "Dead Center" and he's so far to the right that he's half off the cover

Too many activists have never actually worked here. The intentions are right, but they don't understand the rules and think screaming and stomping louder will get things done. It won't. This thread isn't that. It's a somber analysis of what could have been done & wasn't. Worth reading.

I have to believe that he was relieved. Imagine walking around all day saying, "Well, THAT'S illegal. And that's a beach of ethics. And that is expressly called out in the controlling legislation as being simply awful..."

Your intentions are clearly correct. But when they lead NGOs after their service, former legislators can do wonders negotiating the thicket of policy. I worked for a progressive group in the 90's; that leadership helped us do our work. Leading the NAACP is just different from working for Skadden.

Their team? In 2016, LeBron led BOTH teams in those 3 categories, along with blocks AND steals. I'm a 7 game series against a 73 win team. The most ridiculous finals series performance I've ever witnessed.

I cannot emphasize enough how true & real this is.

In almost anywhere on the political spectrum you ID with or major issue, there’s probably a bot/troll operation to encourage your rage and vitriol.

And how/where that rage gets directed, esp understandable rage, is what they are out to influence.

Lauren Boebert Casts Doubt On Moon Landing During Wild Interview With Conspiracy Theorist So on brand for her.

So here's the thing. This doesn't matter. Her constituents don't care because she votes for the most reprehensible crap the GOP can imagine. The important stuff is the omnibus bill of evil. But I find it confounding that were losing to... this idiot. www.comicsands.com/boebert-moon...

This is it. This is the term for what MAGA is doing

I always say I love my country the way Anthony Bourdain did, not as a benevolent state or one founded in innocence but as vast, beautiful place full of discrete people and cultures such as has rarely been attempted and worth fighting for.

I don’t think anyone is prepared for what they just did w/ ICE.

This is not a simple budget increase. It is an explosion - making ICE bigger than the FBI, US Bureau of Prisons, DEA,& others combined.

It is setting up to make what’s happening now look like child’s play. And people are disappearing.

Hey, remember when Cruella DeVille went against the President when he said the GOP wanted to slash Medicaid. She DID NOT get attacked, body slammed, called the wrong name, detained by ICE or removed from the room? Good Times. Civilized Times.

It has a very real chance of failing—and *even if it passes with changes* it still has to go BACK to the Senate to get voted on AGAIN. And it barely made it through the first time

This thing is way more killable than you’d think and the longer we can drag out the process the more killable it gets

the stories that come out of the ICE camps are going to look like the stories that come out of every camp system; rampant corruption, epidemic disease, physical and sexual abuse on a vast scale, a death rate far higher than normal, and medical abuses.

Looking to legislators for leadership is silly. The Tea Party derailed Obama. Not led by elected officials, but every public gathering included those a-holes screaming until they couldn't be ignored. No Kings was fun, but it's meaningless if it's one day. It's our job to disrupt GOP operations.

1/2 I suspect that I'm about to lose the 5 followers I have. Whatever.

Dem reps who don't try to impeach fundamentally misunderstand the political moment. Business as usual can't survive ICE, SCOTUS, & their forms of domestic terrorism. Rome is burning; protocols and precedent don't matter. BUT...

Hey, bots and spammers are people, too! I mean, literally not, but you get the idea...

*Biden tries to forgive student loans*
SCOTUS: Whoa there, that is, uh, a major question. Which means you can't do it.

*Trump revokes part of the constitution*
SCOTUS: Obviously, we got to give the President the benefit of the doubt on this one.

Thank you for letting me know!

This is what white Christian Nationalism looks like, y'all.

No, no. I ALSO wanted the pacers to win. I will never forgive the Thunder for the move to OKC. (I also root against the Colts and Ravens.) But even Richard Jefferson hated this call on the broadcast. I'm trying to figure out what I'm missing.

Okay, fill me in because you're a journalist, so I trust your objectivity. Was it a screen? Clearly. Did he even THINK about setting to establish position? No. He literally ran right at the defender. How in any sane world is that NOT a moving screen/offensive foul???

To be fair, "Forget about intelligence" could be the motor of both Rubio and his boss.

Well, we know Frank Sinatra is. At least if Angela Lansbury is playing his mother...

Some years back, I was working for a Dem legislator when a Social Democrat was nominated for County Executive in her home county. She considered supporting a centrist Dem who was running 3rd party. I told her that I swallowed it up to vote for her; she could suck it up and support the party nominee.
