You Got β€˜The Look’ from Hillary Clinton? Just go home. You're done.

my latest for @contrariannews.org - as MAGAs on the house oversight committee peppered her with ridiculous questions, Hillary Clinton gave many of them *the look*, her now-famous indication that you are a fool.

You do not want to get *the look*.

The Hague will appreciate all the legwork of the detailed documentation they are providing.

Gas prices jumped an average of 11 cents OVERNIGHT, and continue to rise. This is the price of bad leadership.

U.S. Troops Were Told Iran War Is for β€œArmageddon,” Return of Jesus Advocacy group reports commanders giving similar messages at more than 30 installations in every branch of the military

EXCLUSIVE: At more than 30 installations, U.S. commanders told troops the war on Iran is a Christian war.

The Military Religious Freedom Foundation has been β€œinundated” with more than 110 complaints.

One NCO said they were told the U.S. war is to bring about Armageddon and the return of Jesus…

The benevolent part of humanity grapples with the fact that ~30% of humans in every society desire ignorant conformity to authoritarian dictators.

It's the job of the rest of us to remove those fuckers from power and keep them in their pens and change their (NYT) newspaper floor-lining every day.

Which one of the dime store lawyers Trump has running DOJ did the judge expect to know about laws or the constitution? That’s a pretty high bar for that bunch. It won’t get any better until they actually start paying a price for their insouciance and contempt of the law and the courts. Disbar them.

I rewatched a couple of seasons of β€œAll in the Family” this month and was stunned by the contrast in the quality of writing/comedy/drama it brought us compared to the absolute dreck available now. I’d take the former in snowy analog broadcast over 4K streaming of the latter every day.

"Dow 50,000" Sound Nice. Until Justin Wolfers Shows You That U.S. Markets Are Coming 21st Out of 23.
"Dow 50,000" Sound Nice. Until Justin Wolfers Shows You That U.S. Markets Are Coming 21st Out of 23. What does β€œDow 50,000” actually tell youβ€”anything about the economy, or just that a number got bigger? Dow 50,000 is a milestone, not a measurement. The level of the Dow is basically arbitrary: it’s…

The Dow was at 43,488 when Trump took office. It just hit 50,000.

So if you had invested $43,488 in the US, you would now have $50,000. But if you had invested the same amount in the rest of the world, you would now be worth $60,000.

Even without an on-campus voting site, NCAT students still marched to the polls. πŸ’™πŸ’› Students at North Carolina A&T showed that barriers won’t stop their voices. When access isn’t easy, they organize. ... TikTok video by HBCU Student Action Alliance

North Carolina lawmakers have voted to remove all college campus voting sites. Specifically at the largest HBCU in the US NC A&T. They now have to walk 30 minutes to their nearest polling place. Students are protesting this - pls share and support.

2/2 It’s obvious these facilities are doomed; if not in a month, then within 3 years; at which time the government will have a fire sale of surplus property for pennies on the dollar of what taxpayer funds acquired them.

1/2 Hear me out: What if this ICE warehouse buying spree isn’t about imprisoning people or grift for private prisons, but rather a red herring for a huge commercial real-estate acquisition scam.
