I'm sure this has been mentioned but, back in 2003, ABC's first choice for the late-night job was Jon Stewart.

It surely seems that way. CBS, what gives?

Dem Party: We are spending $20M to figure out how to talk to male voters.

Mamdani: Save your money. I have +45 favorability with male voters & +73 with men under 45. Endorse me.

Dem Party: No way dude. Now—why is our favorability is -54? Let's spend $20M on wealthy consultants to figure it out!

Sounds about right to me!

Slash healthcare and give the rich tax breaks🤪
Wonder if trump is using the Harper Manning playbook? The reform conservative coalition mastered making the rich richer and the middle class poorer way before trumps maga cult was a thing🖕
Most importantly they are mortgaging our children with the debt😢

This is a full out attack upon the working poor. Shameful. Wrong. Bad for our country.

Liberal Commentator Alarmingly Grilled By Customs Over His Views On Trump While Returning From France This doesn't bode well at all.

They're trying to make people fearful of speaking out.

The state of Georgia is using the body of a brain-dead woman as an incubator. Because she was 9 weeks pregnant when she died, and their abortion ban is from about 6 weeks, they are sustaining her on life support, without input from her family, until 32 weeks of gestation. A true dystopian nightmare.

When profits speak louder than principles, humanity pays the ultimate price.

As part of the red-carpet treatment, Saudi officials arranged for a fully operational mobile McDonald’s unit to accompany President Trump during his stay.

According to local reports, the unit was set up near the Saudi Royal Court.

Funny how THAT works... 🙄

Bribery in plain sight.

Cloven Hooved Horned Satan sitting in a library reading books to kids since we can't do drag storytime anymore....i thought we'd try something else

It's a fantastic book - download it - buy it - or just borrow it and read it. The Dust Bowl Triolgy are worth the effort.

Bottom trawling is horribly destructive to coastal ocean ecosystems, and deep-sea mining will do the same to the open ocean. #OceanFilm 🌊

Increase in productivity since 1979: 86%

Increase in hourly pay since 1979: 31%
