While Agriculture Secretary Brooke Rollins boasts about a $100 million USDA ad blitz promoting "Buy American Beef", President Trump is actively undermining domestic producers by striking a deal to quadruple cheap beef imports from Argentina, a move that kneecaps the American cattle industry.

The UAW made history last year by organizing a Southern auto plant for the first time since the 1940s.

They might do so again, after authorizing a strike at the VW plant.

It takes enormous courage to fight for your rights on the job in a hostile environment. Solidarity.

I never gossip. Except to save a soul. Or a conversation. So you won't catch me repeating the rumors about JD Vance and Erika Kirk.

Meiselas: As all of this information has flooded the zone, you’d think that would be a good thing—that people would get more educated. But paradoxically, I think it’s brought us back to the Dark Ages and feudal times, because a lot of information doesn’t necessarily mean good information.

Everyone in this pic is on something:

Aside from Andrew Mountbatten Windsor being a disgusting piece-of-shit who should be thrown in jail, it's pretty interesting from a comms perspective to watch how Buckingham Palace navigates their deserved PR crisis and it's unclear how long it'll take them to recover, if at all.

(quick thread)

What I Read this Week The cost of living crisis and the trade war continue, Hurricane Melissa devastates Jamaica, and why Reform will struggle to cut public spending.

The people of the Caribbean are being forced to bear the costs of a crisis they did not cause. And they can’t afford the clean-up thanks to the legacy of colonialism.

To say this is unjust would be an understatement. It’s grotesque.

10 Fundamental Flaws With the Comey Prosecution The case is fated to run aground.

The image shows a man seated in an opulent, classically styled room. He’s dressed formally in a dark suit, white shirt, and patterned tie, suggesting a serious or official occasion. His posture is engaged—right hand gesturing mid-sentence, left hand resting on his lap—indicating he’s likely in conversation or being interviewed.

Calling This Court “Supreme” Is Obeying in Advance When will legal elites stop passing off tyranny in robes as the rule of law?

White Christian nationalism has consumed the Supreme Court and crippled the Constitution it’s meant to uphold.

I'm sure this won't arouse any conspiracy theorists

It’s pretty clear that Vance has determined that his wife’s faith is a potential liability for him with some Republican primary voters. The only question is how he’s going to deal with it. I guess we just got a sneak preview this week of coming attractions.

I have a flight this weekend and I’m more than a little concerned…

The shutdown affects us all:

• Air travel: TSA and FAA slowdowns = delays, canceled flights, less safe

• SNAP + WIC: Millions lose food assistance

• Farmers: No crop payments, disaster aid, market reports

Trump’s Agriculture Secretary Rollins & Johnson called 42 million Americans losing SNAP benefits a “silver lining” because it sparked “a national conversation.”

Imagine being so detached from hunger that you see families skipping meals as a PR opportunity.

King Charles urged to order Trump to put his 'big boy pants on' over Epstein

He wants to enrage you with stories of “lazy kids” as they kick over 40 million people off food ASSISTANCE - pushing children, families, vets & the elderly off of a program that makes it so they don’t starve.

All while shipping BILLIONS to Argentina. Get angry. Kick them out of office. #YesOnProp50

In an unprecedented move, Austria is regulating rents for the entire country.

All apartments that already have government regulation have seen a total rent freeze this year.

All formerly unregulated units are also getting rent stabilization to limit landlord rent hikes.

Man who alleges Mountbatten abuse launches legal challenge Arthur Smyth is suing five state institutions including the Department of Health and the PSNI.

Prince Andrew now being called Andrew Mountbatten Windsor seems oddly fitting as the “Mountbatten” comes from Lord Mountbatten, the great uncle and mentor to King Charles, who was also a child molester.

What I know about ICE agents is that they are angry at the entire world because they didn’t have what it takes to amount to anything of import. We are watching in real time as they take out their lifelong failures on people in the United States.

Remember when Texas Dems broke quorum & in response TX AG Paxton & Gov Abbot demanded their arrest & removal from office?

Under Speaker Johnson, Congress has been in session only 12 of last 100 days, absent since Sept 19, & he still won't swear in Rep-elect Grijalva.

Rules for thee but not for me.
