The triumph of bullshit Internet conspiracy theories are now official government policy.

New in PN: The triumph of bullshit

"Weโ€™re a long way from 'covfefe' and tumescent hurricanes Sharpied on a weather map. This is an era of lies as policy, where government priorities are based on right-wing conspiracy theories and fear-mongering."

Over 71 million Americans are paid less than a living wage, and are forced into social safety nets like SNAP.

If you think too many people are receiving SNAP benefits, donโ€™t shame them.

Shame their employers paying them poverty wages and forcing taxpayers to subsidize the rest.

All that money - our money - for food, student loan forgiveness, healthcare, cancer research , etc. - has been redirected to create the organization and infrastructure of a police state.

The huge ICE hiring surge, the huge allocations of money for ICE weaponry and to Palantir.

Itโ€™s so obvious.

Michigan Democrats propose $900M plan to save SNAP benefits during shutdown The emergency funding for the program formerly known as food stamps would help 1.4 million Michigan residents who face losing food assistance in November as the federal government remains shut down.

MI PEEPS!!!! It will be interesting to see how the state GOP reacts to the Dems making an attempt to save SNAP. The number of their constituents may make them think twice about torpedoing this proposal.

The Walton family (who own Walmart) are worth over $400 billion, yet many of their employees are on SNAP.

Bezos is worth over $400 billion, many Amazon employees require SNAP.

The people who need help are not the problem.

Itโ€™s corporate greed. Itโ€™s an unwillingness to pay a living wage.

'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.

If the current administration ever ends, many people in (and around) it will need to be prosecuted. From influence peddling to flat-out murder, their crimes seem to accumulate each and every day.

I'm no fan of W.. As a matter of fact his technical defeat of Gore, a very techno-savvy environmentalist, got me to start door knocking for Democrats starting in 2004 but he really nails it here and comes close to predicting the rise of Trumpism. I have to acknowledge his correct, IMHO, analysis.

This video from Portland is a metaphor for what is going on in America. ICE trying so hard to get Americans to cross a line and if they don't, dragging them across the line and violently attacking.

Agreedโ€ฆhistory backs that up. Without strong estate taxesโ€ฆwealth calcifies and ambition dies.

Most great fortunesโ€ฆ vanishโ€ฆby the third generation anyway.

Better to recycle that capital into the systemโ€ฆ that made it possible.

BREAKING:

A US Navy MH-60R Sea Hawk helicopter and an F/A-18F Super Hornet fighter jet crashed separately during routine operations in the South China Sea on Sunday.

What are the chances that two aircraft crash like this within 30 minutes of one another?
