Most publications with paywalls are cheaper per month than a cup of coffee, or a magazine, or even a music or film subscription. If you don't want to pay for them that's fine but don't complain about the paywall, would you walk into a shop and say 'HEY WHY IS THAT STUFF IN THE WINDOW NOT FREE?'

it’s pretty funny that Duffy is simultaneously

1. scolding passengers for not wearing fancy clothes while flying

2. supporting airport gyms so passengers can be sweaty and gross while flying

both of these proposals are idiotic but the direct contradiction is next level

I would prefer protection from predatory pricing and mandated easy refunds, thanks!

Holy crap my side hurts from laughing so hard. Hilarious insanity!

Video shows masked Border Patrol agent chasing woman back to her Louisiana home Jacelynn Guzman said she is a U.S.-born citizen. The Department of Homeland Security said Friday that it "determined the individual in question was not the target."

"She said she repeatedly told the agents she’s a U.S. citizen.

“I just kept repeating it — I’m a U.S.-born citizen. I was born and raised here. This is my home. My baby’s waiting for me...”

She screamed “Leave me alone...”

Paramount Skydance launches hostile bid for WBD after Netflix wins bidding war Netflix won a bidding war for the Warner Bros. film studio and HBO Max streaming service, but it doesn't plan to buy WBD's TV networks.

Trump’s Own Mortgages Match His Description of Mortgage Fraud, Records Reveal The Trump administration has argued that Fed board member Lisa Cook may have committed mortgage fraud by declaring more than one primary residence on her loans. We found Trump once did the very thing ...

Trump committed mortgage fraud, according to Trump.

Somehow I doubt his DOJ will go after him the way he instructed his DOJ to go after his political enemies over this.

Every Republican accusation is a confession.

I’d be curious to know how big the Costco board is and what they’re paid. Is that searchable for a public company? Either way they must get shares of a stock that trades in the $800’s. Nice work if you can get it.
