Public policy is supposed to try to protect people from scams, not create new scams so people can get exploited.

Tech moguls turned away as Lisbon airport hits private jet limit Some delegates to Web Summit technology conference are being forced to land in Spain

Clearly a sign they are being paid too much money, and not paying nearly enough tax.

They need to check @seatsixtyone.bsky.social to work out how to get there by train

Boeing won't face criminal charge over 737 Max crashes that killed hundreds of people As part of a deal to dismiss the case, Boeing agreed to pay or invest an additional $1.1 billion in fines, compensation for the crash victims' families, and internal safety and quality measures.

"...the American aerospace company agreed to pay or invest an additional $1.1 billion in fines..."

Pay where? Which fund or account? Under whose control? Journalists should be asking these questions for EVERY fine or penalty or "deal" wrangled by the Executive.

ICE is still being paid.
Congress is still being paid.

Private jets are still being bought.

The White House is still being renovated.

In the most prosperous country in the history of the world...

Buried in the Big Beautiful Bill were changes to food assistance that demanded โ€œany future change be cost-neutral. Translation: no more benefit increases, even if food prices skyrocket.โ€

The result was โ€œinstitutionalized hunger.โ€

Say it isnโ€™t so! Weโ€™re not welcome in states with the lowest ranks in education and life expectancy. And the highest ranks in maternal mortality and crime. So unfair!

This has not gotten much attention, but it should.

Virginia under Youngkin returned to an insanely harsh system where people convicted of any felony lose their voting rights FOR LIFE.

Dems' win this week mean they'll get to advance a constitutional amendment to end lifetime disenfranchisement.
