But their employees are on public assistance…our tax dollars. PAY your employees!!!

The richest company to raid taxpayer $, what an accomplishment for Wal-Mart!

When your low paid employees use more government benefits than any other company, look how RICH you can get!

And Wal-Mart has the nerve to use their profits to bankroll politicians who demonize SNAP recipients.

PUKE!

ALL companies that reach $1 trillion market cap do so through wage theft, under-rewarding the workers whose labor and time enable the valuation. Walmart is a particularly egregious example, its employees subsidized in the US by the taxpayer due to the ridiculously low hourly rate. They’re shit.

First off, Walmart & the Walton family receive an annual $7.8 billion dollars in subsidies and tax breaks. Then, you have them using offshore tax havens to avoid billions in U.S. corporate taxes & exploiting loopholes for executive pay deductions.

So, yeah, no surprise.

1 Trillion market cap, "can't" pay employees a livable wage...sure.

While most of their work force is on public assistance, as Walmart receives American tax payer funded subsidies... make it make sense...

Yes, FBI? I’m calling to report a murder.

Bezos isn't destroying the Washington Post because it isn't profitable. He's destroying the Washington Post because he's calculated that a robust free press threatens the ability of his class to warp society around their interests

Rep Ted Lieu speaking to reporters from a lectern

Ted Lieu: “I went to Minneapolis, St. Paul & met with nonprofit groups & local law enforcement — their stories of abuse are horrific — you have Trump's ICE completely being out of control. But we also know that the public pressure is working — the Trump administration is starting to backtrack”

Stop asking if they’re “rigging the election.”
They. Already. Are.
But the most dangerous part isn’t the mechanics. It’s the message.
They’re doing it in public to make you swallow the real lie:
That voting is pointless.
If they can get you to quit before Election Day… they don’t even have to win.

This Homan presser is completely incoherent. He started by announcing a drawdown of 700 agents (good!) but then pivoted to whining about "rhetoric" (bad) and suggested there will be more bloodshed if it doesn't stop (grim). Not clear to me that anything is actually changing on the ground here in MN.

Tom Homan: “You’re not going to stop ICE. You’re not going to stop border patrol”

Ilhan Omar: “Abolish ICE. There’s no reforming it. There’s no compromise. There’s only one way to rein in ICE’s terror campaign. Abolish it”

😳😡

But Bezos had $75 million to spend on Melania’s vanity project.

I love how these Republicans are once again promoting the SAVE Act. A bill that’s completely unconstitutional. It makes it harder for women and minorities to vote. But, furthermore, this will never pass. The Senate doesn’t have the votes.

2025 was awful and Trump has started off 2026 even worse. We need to keep pushing back on him the next three years to preserve as much of our country as we can.

Jimmy Kimmel, Don Lemon and now Trevor Noah, all these courageous men being persecuted by this administration. They're trying to take away our First Amendment rights. I support these journalists. We the people will not be muzzled.

If the GOP were honest: "It'll take a lot more than definitive proof with absolute scientific accuracy to change our minds that Trump isn't a criminal."

Where’s TRUMP?!!

Good time to reup this post from last month.

For those keeping score at home:

The president had his DOJ raid an election office and seize ballots. Now he is threatening to take over elections. Sadly, this is treated by legacy media as just another normal day.

Immigrants commit fewer crimes.

Immigrants pay taxes.

Immigrants contribute over $2 trillion to the economy.

The problem isn't immigrants.

The problem is the bigots.

Former US Senator and Alabama gubernatorial candidate, @dougjones.bsky.social, says there's no “justice” in the Trump DOJ & how any DOJ investigation into the murder of Alex Pretti is performative. He joins me to explain how it’s time for the people to have the power again.
