His slip of the tongue reveals who’s really in charge. trib.al/mIvP0yE

“Illinois governor says we’re provoking actions that are unlawful,” Miller said on CNN. “If I put federal law enforcement and National Guard into a nice sleepy Southern town, is anyone gonna riot?”

The Count of Mostly Crisco.......and now I am ☠️. You have won the internet today. This is why I follow @guyfawkesnews.bsky.social on Bsky and Threads. You should too.

Increase in productivity since 1979: 87%

Increase in hourly pay since 1979: 32%

Just so happens that ~25% of workers were unionized in 1979. Today? 10%.

As unions declined, the super-rich have taken a larger share of wealth generated by labor. We must build back union power.

In the old days, you'd occasionally run into somebody totally normal who had one utterly insane belief, like a co-worker who just causally says he thinks the sun is alive. Social media is like if we extracted all of those individual bits of madness, cooked them into a stew and ate it for every meal.

The 100 lowest-paying US corporations spent $644B on stock buybacks from 2019 to 2024.

Buybacks artificially boost share prices and inflate CEO pay.

The typical worker at these companies earned $35k last year.

Meanwhile, the average CEO was paid $17.2M

See the problem?

Science is real

The thing about those 600 minors being deported is none of them were in the Epstein files like Trump is.

Trump wants to balloon the military budget to over $1 TRILLION per year — while cutting roughly that amount from Medicaid and SNAP.

Meanwhile, the Pentagon just failed its 7th consecutive audit.

The richest 0.1% of Americans control $22 trillion in wealth.

The bottom 50% control $3.8 trillion in wealth.

Read that back.

Folks, this is what oligarchy looks like.

I cannot stand her, she seems incapable of telling the truth. I feel sorry for her kid, the one will be so messed up.

One is made a national story every single week and the other is shhhhh.....

SpaceX just landed a $5.92B contract with the Pentagon for Space Force rocket launches — the largest contract among the three firms who secured deals to send satellites into orbit.

While DOGE cuts essential services for you, Musk is getting a taxpayer-funded windfall.

Hello?

Immediate no.

A strong trade union movement improves the standard of living for all people.

There is a reason why we are the only major country not to guarantee health care for all or have paid family and medical leave.

We must grow the trade union movement in the United States.

The richest man in the world spent more money than most of us will see in our lifetimes to lose a state Supreme Court race by 10 points.

And the fact his $25 million was a drop in the bucket compared to what he's spent on other elections is exactly why we must overturn Citizens United.

New @science.org
Hedonic eating (eating for pleasure, not need) is mediated by dopamine neurons (in the brain ventral segmental area, VTA) and they are antagonized by GLP-1 drugs, such as semaglutide, leading to weight loss
