What I always hear: “We can’t afford to pay our workers more than $15 an hour.”

What I never hear: “We can’t afford to pay our CEO millions of dollars a year.”

Funny how that works.

‘We Would Be Entering a Completely Different World’ What happens if oil hits $200 a barrel?

“If the strait remains closed for even a month…sustained higher oil prices could plunge the world into a recession, raise borrowing costs, alter the outcome of ongoing wars, and shift the balance of global-power competition in favor of Russia and China”

The best summing up of Trump i've ever seen.

WE LIED ABOUT SANTA AND THE EASTER BUNNY BUT GOD IS TOTALLY REAL, I SWEAR THIS TIME

Suuuure 🙄

Fuck religion and its absurd fairytales.
Have a godless day 🥳

Poster in DC

Spotted in DC

Richard Grenell out as Kennedy Center president The Trump loyalist who led the arts institution through a year of upheaval leaves months before the center is scheduled to be shut down for renovations.

Epiphany

Lately I have been experimenting with black and white photos. Having taken some locally, it made me realize that most of my childhood memories from here are in black and white. I thought about it for a minute and recalled how gray it always seemed. Pre EPA for sure.

A reminder, Israel murdered one of @reuters.com OWN journalists in Gaza

Reuters then wrote an article JUSTIFYING his killing

It’s true for a number of people, enticed by “the American” dream; who get here and realize: this is it? I’ve made a terrible mistake.

BREAKING: Trump deploys a Marine Expeditionary Unit to Iran. About 2,500 Marines, armored infantry, artillery, and an amphibious assault ship are moving into a war already spiraling.

And the way Jen Psaki is dragging Trump for filth 🔥

Instead of blowing up things in Iran, the federal government could have spent $11 billion in a week paying the entire household incomes for everyone in these counties. www.ms.now/opinion/trum...

He was detained for 104 days. A year later, he's still fighting for the right to free speech The case of Khalil, who was detained last March, sits at the vanguard of a battle of immigrants' due process and civil rights, and the Trump administration's mass detention and deportation policies.

Americans are dying so that Kushner can make money

Ah, you are asking the wrong crowd here. If you went to x, you'd probably hear a lot of owning the libs.
