BREAKING: Gavin Newsom just went into Houston, Texas of all places and brought the house down.

This part of his speech gives me chills.

STAND UP FOR DEMOCRACY!!

The BBC's senior leadership resigning en masse over one dodgy edit in one programme, simply because the right wing press demands it, tells you everything you need to know about where the power really lies in that relationship

Is Your Grocery Store Ripping You Off?
Robert Reich Is Your Grocery Store Ripping You Off?

Inflation is on the rise β€” particularly at the grocery store.

One big reason why?

Minimal competition opens the door to maximal price-gouging β€” and the opportunity to pull shady tricks like this. https://youtu.be/ad5GfgrPkYo?si=iDRiVN9_TsjGsD9k

There was a time when she spoke out against sexual harassment perpetrated by people like Roger Ailes and Bill O’Reilly, but that was a different Kelly. Now as long as she likes the job they’re doing, getting a little β€œhandsy” is ok.

It’s ironic but predictable that the BBC duo -who tried so hard to please the right wing papers-are removed by the right wing papers.

Trump intentionally starving Americans is a crime against humanity Trump must be brought to justice!

Trump intentionally starving Americans is a crime against humanity. Every other President--including Trump in his first term--ensured SNAP benefits during a govt shutdown were paid so that Americans in need could eat. But not Trump. My new article: deanobeidallah.substack.com/p/trump-inte...

If you were looking at a newspaper (or its website) this morning and didn't see this iconic photo, it was an intentional choice to pander.

Inside the Cover-up: How Prince Andrew was exposed Behind the headlines lies a deeper story of privilege, protection and a public kept in the dark

Andrew Lownie wrote an explosive book about Prince Andrew

Then came the backlash. Legal threats. Palace sources told journalists not to speak to him

Anonymous social media accounts accused Lownie of visiting sex workers.

This is the reality of what the country has been duped by.

Release EVERYTHING. Even if it’s MTG who does it.
