$28 Billion Hemp Industry Faces Extinction With Government Re-Opening The cannabis world's thriving sector has enjoyed federal legalization since the 2018 Farm Bill. Now, because of an amendment in the bill to reopen the government, it might go up in smoke.

The $28 billion hemp industry faces extinction. Here's why.

I'm not trying to be mean, but racists who believe Trump betrayed them by being a child molester are not going to embrace the Democratic Party without forcing that party to embrace racism. And the people gained would in no way make up for those lost.

Maybe, and I'm spitballing here, women don't like waiting in hospital parking lots until they are near death to have life-saving abortions. Maybe they enjoy having a bank account and jobs and voting rights. Maybe they don't want a court judge to decide if they deserve a divorce. Wow, what a mystery.

Guillermo del Toro quote "...think about wealth for me for example. A wealthy man that has enough..."

"not a man that needs more. If you have enough to invite somebody to beer..."

"...you're rich. If you have, whatever-"

"- yachts and planes and islands and you STILL need more? You're not rich."

Guillermo del Toro on wealth: "a wealthy man is a man who has enough, not a man that needs more. If you have enough to invite someone for a beer? You're rich. If you have a yacht, planes, islands, and you still need more? You're not rich."

Why does everyone keep calling it “The Epstein Ballroom?” Please stop repeating “The Epstein Ballroom” because it is not called “The Epstein Ballroom!” Don’t tell the news that it’s called “The Epstein Ballroom” and please don’t repost this!!!!!

Updating my LEGO White House

Faculty at Texas university fear entire liberal arts departments will be slashed University of Texas at Austin faculty fear changes from new taskforce that could restructure humanities programs

More woes for U of Texas faculty and students... Tenure threats, disempowered academic Senate, an awful campus concealed gun carry policy, etc. Now this review panel that seems missile locked on the various "X" Studies programs...

Psyop at this point just means "Thing I don't like and think is fake" lol

It’s hard to convey just how much Chicagoans are mobilizing against ICE. Don’t want to downplay the harm, or make it seem like a fair fight. But in neighborhoods across this city, ICE is getting chased by people blowing whistles and shouting. People are running TOWARD ICE to protect their neighbors.

Post from WH about Chicago "in chaos," showing scene from another state.

A terrific AFP fact check uses reverse image searches to expose how a White House video took scenes from Florida, Texas, South Carolina and Nebraska and lied that they showed "Chicago is in chaos."

No it isn’t stop complying in advance

free speech is dead

Important addition here.

The person they're talking about and threatening is a man they all know personally on some level, Rand Paul (who voted no)

20 paragraphs down in the NBC News story that broke the information that the administration is considering invoking the Insurrection Act is the report that Stephen Miller is driving the issue.

Today is a day when arts degrees are worthless, but the product of those degrees is so valuable it would kill an entire industry if they were made to pay for it.

Spent the last decade reading conservative blogs use the word "Orwellian" more than they used the word "the" and now they're literally just saying "War is Peace" out loud in front of everybody.

Frozen meals from Walmart and Trader Joe's leave 4 dead and 19 hospitalized The CDC is warning consumers to check their fridges as two ready-to-eat pasta meals sold at Walmart, Kroger, and Trader Joe's locations nationwide have been recalled due to Listeria contamination.

Dear gestapo trash:

The 400 richest Americans are now worth a record $6.6 trillion.

The entire bottom 50% of America is worth just $4.2 trillion.

Our problem is ever-expanding inequality.

Pretty clear illustration of "you may as well stand up for what you believe in, they're coming for you anyway."
