'Washington Post' editorials omit a key disclosure: Bezos' financial ties Three times in the past two weeks, editorials at the 'Washington Post' failed to disclose that they focused on matters in which owner Jeff Bezos had a material interest.

Schrier to RFK Jr: You gave Cassidy the answer he needed to hear in order to get his confirmation vote, then as soon as you were secretary you turned around & fired all 17 members. You lied. I also want to be clear that I will lay all responsibility for every vaccine-preventable death at your feet.

Judges and politicians who are still in office should not have book deals. They should not have side hustles. They should not have active financial commitments beyond their one fucking government job. If they want to make more money or whatever, they should quit.

Harvard has set an example for other higher-ed institutions - rejecting an unlawful and ham-handed attempt to stifle academic freedom, while taking steps to make sure students can benefit from an environment of intellectual inquiry, rigorous debate and mutual respect. Letโ€™s hope others follow suit.

Why are blue states paying taxes to a fascist federal government? Why is our money still supporting red states that pervert democracy? Let the red states take full ownership of their policies instead of relying on blue states to support them. Donโ€™t they have bootstraps they can pull up?

Every single Republican who kneels before the fascist in the White House has forgotten how we became a country.
I have a feeling that they will soon have a painful history lesson.

The institutional Democratic Party is guided by an almost pathological level of conflict avoidance in almost every direction. โ€œWhat can we do to make the least number of people mad?โ€ is just a bankrupt way to operate.

Handing these criminals a blank check is a betrayal. They have breached our data, ransacked our services, fired our people, insulted and dehumanized us, committed crimes against immigrants and citizens.

Backing down will be the end of the Democrats. We see you fully and will not blindly support.

Or you could grow a spine and STAND UP FOR DEMOCRACY. This is the reason why I left the Democratic Party, yโ€™all are responsible for allowing an authoritarian to steal power and cause chaos. And you are still capitulating to him but under the guise of โ€œit will hurt people.โ€ Absolutely revolting.

Over the last three years, the head of a small charter school network that serves fewer than 1,000 students has taken home up to $870,000 annually, a startling amount that appears to be the highest for any public school superintendent in Texas.
