Mark Zuckerberg Opened an Illegal School at His Palo Alto Compound. His Neighbors Revolted Neighbors complained about noise, security guards, and hordes of traffic. An unlicensed school named after the Zuckerbergs’ pet chicken tipped them over the edge.

"The Zuckerberg compound’s expansion became a concern for Crescent Park neighbours as early as 2016, due to fears his purchases were driving up the market. Then, about 5 years later, neighbors noticed a school appeared to be operating out of the Zuckerberg compound…" www.wired.com/story/mark-z...

Don Moynihan on "Purge, Merge, and Surge" "Instead of surging in Iraq, it’s happening here in American cities."

“In ‘Purge, Merge, and Surge,’ Moynihan details how the administration is creating a federal ‘omniforce’ accountable to Trump that he can use to ‘impose control over Democratic cities, instigate enough unrest to justify escalation, and tamp down any dissent.’”

A traditional Native American ceremony is held at the Broadview.
ICE Facility In Chicago, featuring a spiritual round dance of healing.

Airlines merged from 12 major carriers in 1980 to 4 today.

Four giants control 80% of meat processing.

A handful of companies control the pharmaceutical industry.

The evidence of corporate concentration is everywhere.

It means more power for them and less freedom for you.

They just tear-gassed us. They tried to run us over in a van holding a peaceful protester. They shot us with pepper balls. They dragged another protester into the facility.

First Colbert, now Kimmel, and Trump says Fallon and Meyers are next. We now join the ranks of Russia, Nazi Germany, and North Korea—places that persecute comedians and media personalities for dissent.

Emergency Triad: First, They Came for Jimmy Kimmel What happens when comedians are held to stricter standards than vice presidents?

"Trump, Vance, and their propaganda networks do not operate in good faith...The forces of liberalism should stop treating MAGA [as if it] is playing by the same rules...The people operating in good faith need to stop self-flagellating and surrendering preemptively."

Agree, feels like a good time for the “big one” to allow Cali to become an island.

I really want eclipse season to be over.

For those still keeping track of the lies, now Donald Trump was never an informant for the FBI against Epstein, as confirmed by the head of the FBI.

Enough with the lies. Release the files.

Remember ethics?

I’m self employed on ACA, I’m screwed. And in this job market good luck finding a full time job with health insurance benefits.

Why your health insurance may soon cost a lot more Millions will be paying substantially more for health insurance next year, according to multiple surveys. Insurers cited tariffs and demand for obesity drugs.

“Health insurance costs in the United States are on track for their biggest jump in at least five years…

“For the 24 million enrollees of Affordable Care Act insurance plans, costs are expected to rise by more than 75 percent next year…”

Conversely: Why Use AI When You Could Just Try?

I refuse to knowingly use AI. When I google I add -ai so as to not get that annoying summary. It’s the dumbing down of intelligence so we are easier to control. So sad.

ACA is used by people working 3 or 4 part time jobs because they can’t find a full time employer who pays for insurance, as well as the self employed, of which I am one. We are all screwed.

He is a racist missing the “good old days” of apartheid South Africa.

The real issue isn’t left vs right.

It’s not white vs black.

It’s not citizen vs immigrant.

It’s not gay vs straight.

The real issue is that a lot of powerful people have a vested interest — and a lot of money invested — in dividing us, and it’s working.

Brett Kavanaugh explains that SCOTUS really IS doing racism He showed his whole hood.

"Kavanaugh penned a concurrence confirming that, yes, the conservative justices are motivated by gutter racism, and they absolutely do intend to shred five decades of jurisprudence. YOU’RE GODDAMN RIGHT THEY ORDERED THE CONSTITUTIONAL CODE RED, SON! And they’ll do it again." — @lizdye.bsky.social

Why Gov. Pritzker says Trump's threats to Chicago make him worry about 2026 elections Steve Inskeep speaks with Illinois Governor JB Pritzker about President Trump's threats to send National Guard troops to Chicago and the future of the Democratic Party.

You shouldn’t have to walk around with papers in the United States of America to prove that you belong.

All I can say is that this administration should understand Chicago is a place that’s going to protect its people.

Odd how they all resemble his daughter🤔
