Maybe if we start calling our body parts gun-sounding names like “revulva” or “shooterus” the GOP will stop trying to regulate them.

I have lived through unstable economic and political times before. Tariffs and isolationism are breeding grounds for fascism. We are at strong risk of repeating history.

What do these corporations have in common?

Duke Energy
DISH Network
Metlife
Dominion Energy
United States Steel

In recent years, they all paid their execs more than they paid in taxes.

This is what a corporate-rigged system looks like.

you know, you don’t see very many nominally-liberal women raving about how a particular fascist is actually quite reasonable behind the scenes, because women, unlike Bill Maher, have a fair amount of experience with people who are charming because they’re trying to fuck you

Mr. President. Obey the courts. Obey our Constitution. Bring him home immediately.

The stock portfolios of more than two dozen members of Congress outperformed the market in 2024.

This isn't due to luck or skill.

Lawmakers can use privileged information to trade stocks while they’re supposed to be working for you.

In front of him is a computer monitor displaying a graph with a downward-trending red line and the headline "MARKETS IN FREE-FALL."

It’s sadly accurate.
