Because we as collective societies let them.

You want to explain Delta’s CEO’s role in all this, @forbes.com ??

This isn’t the whole story - of course Forbes does t want Americans to know that this is at the behest airline companies - specifically Delta and its CEO who contributed millions to Trumps campaign and inauguration.

“Yet the concept of “equal protection of the laws” has shrunk with the modern Supreme Court. “

Great idea!!

"This assault on higher education is best understood as a means of destroying a locus of political opposition."

What utter bullshit. Nice freedom of thought you got there TX.

Nothing says freedom like having to grab documents whenever you walk out.

Nothing like the freedom of suspecting everyone around you of being about to grab you off the street.

Nothing like the liberty of wondering when shots are going to ring out while you’re in line somewhere.

Ahh freedom.

Is this a real probe, or a Trump FBI probe? Who can know anymore? 🤷‍♀️ What’s justice?

Just wanted to watch some old Star Trek episodes and was told I needed a subscription to Paramount +.

Nice freedom we’ve got here.

This is all so damn cryptic. This isn’t how normal people email.

Not only this but we’re still told that young men are the real victims of society right now.

International stocks are outperforming the S&P 500 by the widest margin in 16 years.

Colombia to suspend intelligence cooperation with US over strikes on drug vessels Colombian President Gustavo Petro has ordered security forces to stop sharing intelligence with the United States until it stops striking suspected drug trafficking boats in the Caribbean.

This visualization, "Domestic Deployment of the Military in 2025," updated on November 10, 2025, displays the geographical distribution, scale, and specific legal authority for four categories of domestic military deployments across the United States. Deployment scale is categorized by the size of the circles, representing 800, 3,000, or 8,000 troops. The legal authorities are color-coded as follows: Article II powers (Yellow), Title 10 Chapter 15 (Dark Blue), Title 10 Section 12406 (Cyan), and Title 32 Section 502(f) (State-Controlled National Guard with Federal Funding, Orange).

The U.S. military is being used inside the United States. There's a lot we don't know about how, why, and under what authorities.

Lawfare's new project–which includes a tracker and a map–follows where and how the military is being domestically deployed. www.lawfaremedia.org/projects-ser...

A bunch of folks have asked me what this looks like in local currency terms. Here's the chart.

It's a similar story: The performance of the U.S. stock market during the Trump presidency is... ~~meh~~

This is because eating at McDonalds for a family of four costs around $60-80 now.

I hope this pattern is becoming clearer:

Billionaires target & destroy assets that serve the public interest so that their profits & power go uncontested.

From news to tech to finance & space, billionaires are not interested in "innovation" or "job creation" or any of that bullshit. They plunder.

I’m actually very disturbed that justices don’t seem to know what a tariff is.

The billionaires can buy the newspapers and buy social media and buy attack ads, but they can't buy their way out of how much we fucking hate all of them.

And I think we’re all tired of being made to feel like we have to excuse ourselves for supporting American ideals like equality, justice, and good old plain fucking virtue and common sense.

Der spiegel reported on all Dem gov wins.

Alt right freaking out - even in Austria.

Bummer - I wonder how much she paid for those texts. 😂

Omg just pay them more to live!! FFS. No need to spend $300-500K on a house - just pay them more per year.

Mamdani aside, it’s results across the Hudson River in New Jersey that show MAGA is in deep shit. In counties like Passaic looking like Hispanic support has completely collapsed & reversed only a year later. Dem Mikie Sherrill won governor far better than expected. www.latintimes.com/latinos-sour...

Mamdani's outro music is the Sunidhi Chauhan banger "Dhoom Machale" and a million Desi kids just felt seen.

Trump Has No Legal Grounds for His Boat-Bombing Campaign The Trump administration’s use of a “war” framing to target boats it claims are trafficking drugs is complicating its legal strategy in three ways.

“United Nations high commissioner for human rights, Volker Turk, declared that the US military has violated international law by killing at least 61 civilians thus far on 14 different boats in international waters in the Caribbean and Eastern Pacific.”

So the administration has demonstrated its strategy centered on repeatedly breaking the law & violating people's rights.

Will any official face any accountability for this crime spree?

Some people will do anything to avoid helping out their community.
