If you were concerned about teachers “grooming” kids by acknowledging the existence of LGBTQ people, but you’re fine with the GOP hiding the Epstein Files and a president whose name is all over them, you’ve acknowledged what the rest of us have always known….

It was never about protecting. kids.

Remember: The richest 1% evade over $160 billion in taxes every year.

That amount would fund SNAP for a year with money to spare.

Ask yourself who the real freeloaders are.

You know what is the actual term for “underage women”? CHILDREN.

We’re #1! We’re #1!!

Today, Trump rolled back his excessive tariffs on coffee, beef, bananas, tomatoes, and more agricultural products, effectively admitting that he himself caused their prices to go up.

America's most notorious child rapist, Jeffrey Epstein, said this man was the worst person he'd ever met. Let that sink in.

Reminder that Starbucks’ CEO made 6,666x more than the company's median employee in 2024.

This was the widest CEO-to-Worker pay gap in the entire S&P 500.

And we're supposed to believe Starbucks can't afford to bargain a fair contract with its unionized workers?

Sen. Kennedy on releasing all of the Epstein files: “I just don't think this issue is going to go away until that issue is addressed and answered to the American people's satisfaction. And I may end up with a sombrero on my head for saying that, but that's the way I see it.”

I read today on the FBI child trafficking site that over 200 arrests have happened since January. I researched over 12 high profile cases, why are so many pedophiles Republicans? I’d this why the House is protecting them?!

"There is a lot more." Rep. Garcia shares the DOJ is hoarding files from federal Epstein investigations. "Photographs, possibly videos, they have information we need to actually bring justice to the survivors and to implicate the wealthy and powerful men that abused and raped children and women."

I just kind of think all these people should, after a fair trial in which they are zealously represented before a jury of their peers, be eaten

The cruelty is the point.

A couple months back, I was curious as to how Bill Pulte was able to obtain Lisa Cook and Letitia James' mortgage documents. Today, the WSJ reports that he was actually under investigation for how he obtained them. www.wsj.com/finance/regu...

WATCH — @repstevenhorsford.bsky.social : “My amendment would redirect that $40 BILLION from Argentina to fund the ACA subsidies for two years… a far better use of taxpayer dollars.”

Why do we have money for Argentina while our own people lose their health care? How does this make us great?

Big Tech is plotting a $100M lobbying and campaign spending blitz to block AI regulation at the state and federal level.

We must stop this takeover before it's too late.

I believe this 1000% now and I was a skeptic for a long time.

I don’t know how many times I’ve watched this video.

I don’t know how we’ve gotten to the point where men in full balaclavas can abduct daycare teachers while they’re watching children.

But I do know that this isn’t sustainable. Abolish ICE. There is no way to reform this.

LA: “They took a US citizen father out and left a toddler in the backseat. Two heavily armed border patrol agents got in that car and drove the child and the vehicle away.”

What are we doing?

The White House tweeting out the county level map that exaggerates their success in 2024.

Stage One: Denial.

"The single biggest point to take away from last night is that the Hispanic vote has absolutely collapsed from Republicans."

Read about that and more in today's Triad from @jvl.bsky.social: www.thebulwark.com/p/2025-elect...

Long Island to me had always felt like the Orange County of Southern California. The levels of conservative NIMBYism always baffle me even if I’m not surprised.

Did you see that Onondaga County finally flipped after 50 years?! Such a win. The area is sadly screwed over time and again by bad policies and poor investment in the people and infrastructure. I’m hoping we see some positive changes soon.

Same. I went to sleep feeling exhilarated and woke up feeling hopeful and motivated!

The rapid proliferation of services powered by artificial intelligence, ranging from the genuinely useful to the frivolous to the unnecessary, has a common element: the need for vast amounts of electricity and water for the data centers that make them possible.

If your government thinks the Pope “doesn’t know what he’s talking about” when he defends migrants’ dignity, the world should see the warning sign. The US is no longer leading on human rights. It’s suppressing them.

Inside TurboTax’s 20-Year Fight to Stop Americans From Filing Their Taxes for Free Using lobbying, the revolving door and “dark pattern” customer tricks, Intuit fended off the government’s attempts to make tax filing free and easy, and created its multi-billion-dollar franchise.

The IRS is reportedly not offering its Direct File program next year. Here’s a look back at how TurboTax owner Intuit spent two decades fighting to prevent Americans from filing their taxes online for free:
