It's not hyperbole to suggest that today we have a federal government that doesn't so much represent or resemble a federal administration as it does a family crime syndicate.

Absolute the height of EVIL.

These people need to face murder charges, or at least manslaughter.

The Trans Panic: How Conservatives Duped Their Phobic Base and Sacrificed a Vulnerable Minority When you understand what motivates people, you can easily manipulate them.

Republican political and religious leaders have managed to fabricate a nonexistent national danger involving an infinitesimal number of people who are already among the most vulnerable and at-risk communities in this nation.

Seems pretty clear from this that the very famous writer commissioned to do this book review let AI write it for her. You expect corporations to be looking for this sort of shortcut; it’s sad to see actual writers so contemptuous of their own craft. Or maybe I should say former writers.

Everything the Ellison family could own if Paramount buys Warner Bros:

Paramount+
CBS
CNN
Showtime
HBO
Warner Bros
TNT
TBS
MTV
DC Studios
Nickelodeon
Comedy Central
Cartoon Network
And more...

This is a rotten deal that the Trump regime has rubber stamped.

State AGs must step in and block it.

Right. So with AI robots soon able to do almost everything better than
humans, people will be replaced. Soon. There will be few jobs. So there will have to be a national income. How do you think people will find meaning in their lives?

Netflix Backs Out of Bid for Warner Bros., Paving Way for an Ellison Takeover

The richest man owns X.

The second and third richest men control Google.

The fourth richest man owns Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp.

The fifth richest man owns The Washington Post.

And now the sixth richest could soon take over both Paramount and Warner Bros.

See the problem here?

This is exactly the disgusting, inhumane behavior from the Trump administration that millions of Americans are fed up with.

We demand answers and accountability.

If Hell Exists, It Will Be Filled With Congressional Republicans Growing up in the Church, I believed in Hell.

This isn’t about Trump.

He is a walking moral cesspool; a lumbering, empty, loveless husk of a human being, but he has never been anything else...

Trump is about to start a war he hasn't bothered to explain It's not even clear he knows why he wants to bomb Iran.

Trump is about to start a war, and he hasn't even tried to persuade the public that it's a good idea. Maybe it's because he's not sure himself why he's doing it.

The same day DHS announced the surge would end in Minnesota, ICE activity increased in small towns The less densely populated areas outside the Twin Cities make it harder for protesters and observers to organize.

There is no drawdown. There is no retreat. ICE is just redistributing their assets to better avoid accountability.

Notice how the Department of Homeland Security has changed the look of its concentration camps? It's so drones can't fly overhead to take videos of emaciated inmates covered in their own filth.
