Mr. Fromesco

The CEO-to-worker pay ratio at S&P 500 companies last year was 285-to-1. The median employee would have had to start working in the year 1740 to earn what the average CEO received in 2024. Is it any wonder why so many think the system is rigged?

Virginia Giuffre’s brother: Calling it a hoax is a complete disgrace to everything that my sister has worked for, everything these survivors have worked for and continue to fight for… And that feels very uncompassionate coming from somebody that’s the leader of our country.

Brutal, but fair. He does have his reputation.

If you live in/represent a Blue State, want to gerrymander the FUCK out of your state, support and are willing to fight for a national anti-gerrymandering law you are principled, consistent and doing exactly the right thing.

Jordy Meiselas: ICE didn't just lower the age requirement—they removed the age requirement. Now, at any age—you can go and join. They've riled up their base and have given them one lane to occupy: take out your anger, become an ICE agent, and chase down migrants. They are preying on people's hate.

Nearly 2 million Americans on unemployment, highest since pandemic era Continuing unemployment claims jumped to 1.97 million in late July, according to a Labor Department report, highlighting a weakening labor market.

The social ostracism from being associated with ICE has to become overwhelming. We have to show that anybody associated with them cannot be a part of regular society again ever

Jon Steingart @jonsteingart The Calif.

Raskin: "The first thing that everybody needs to regard is that you don't need a top level legal-political strategy session with the highest government officials in the land in order to release the file, which is what Donald Trump said for years he wanted to happen."

Election theft in broad daylight. 5 alarm fire🔥.

We are over the cliff. 🇺🇸

@govpritzker.illinois.gov: "A rightwing blogger, who has credentials at the WH, came to an area where some of the legislators are staying and started reporting online about it. He then put up a map and put a pin on the map and said, 'This is where these Texas legislators are.' So that started this."

BREAKING: President Trump CALLS FOR Intel's CEO, Lip-bu Tan to resign because of his past ties to China.

Rand Paul: "We haven't seen the punishment yet, and that's rising prices in the tariffed goods. You will see that ... I think that happens in the next several months."

Americans are relearning the lesson we learned during the Gilded Age of the late 1890s, when robber barons ran the government and the economy for their own benefit: Oligarchy is incompatible with the common good.

I'm hopeful we'll respond with a new progressive movement.

Not great that people like Micah Beckwith are in positions of power but don’t understand how our constitution works, and are arrogant in their ignorance.

RFK Jr has been a liar for as long as I can remember.

NEWS: Constitution Sections on Due Process and Foreign Gifts Quietly Removed From Government Website This is a major story that more media sites need to cover.

Yes, the federal government removed two key sections of the Constitution, one dealing with Due Process and the second dealing with States rights, from a Congressional website.

I helped break this story this morning.

The government claims it's a coding error.

Duh!

Members of Congress were turned away at an ICE detention center in Brooklyn today while exercising their right to conduct oversight of the facility.

ICE has no power to turn them away without reason.

First and foremost, the Whitehouse is never supposed to even interact with the DOJ. Not even by phone. Last time it happened was Nixon, and we all know that outcome.

The family of Virginia Giuffre:

"Missing from this group is, of course, any survivor of the vicious crimes of convicted perjurer and sex trafficker Ghislaine Maxwell and Jeffrey Epstein. Their voices must be heard, above all. We also call upon the House subcommittee to invite survivors to testify."
