The absolute accuracy of this.

Reality means nothing at all to this senile old man.

I'm glad that Congress isn't alive to see this

I feel like I haven’t even been properly lied to about the purposes of this war

I will never understand why wanting everyone within an environment of incredible surplus to have at least what they need to survive is considered a radical position but hoarding wealth is considered normal and even admired.

One explanation for economic populism in the US is the recurring cycle of bubbles and bailouts that happens without any democratic input

it's fascinating that you can see when exactly the Reagan revolution happened

A foreign country bribed the president with a bar of gold.

Where are my Originalists at?

Table showing the five richest men in the U.S from Bloombergs billionaire list ., all in technology. Elon Musk tops the list with a net worth of $461B and a year-to-date gain of $28.2B. Larry Ellison is second at $300B with a $107B YTD gain. Jeff Bezos has $268B (+$29.5B YTD), Larry Page $250B (+$81.9B YTD), and Sergey Brin $234B (+$75.5B YTD). Each row also lists last-day change, country (all United States), and industry (all Technology).

Kind of wild that while food assistance was withheld from millions of families, one Trump-supporting billionaire (Ellison) saw his net worth grow more this year than the entire SNAP budget. And the YTD gains of the other four richest men would’ve fully covered salaries for all 2M federal employees.

Israel has already broken the conditions of the cease fire they agreed to

fake film poster with a sunset and the portland frog protestor with words The Portland War, A Film by Ken Burns

As the administration goes all in on an alternate reality about portland that bears no resemblance to fact and rule of law, continuing radical (and just plain funny, ridiculing) acts of the imagination along with other ways of getting out the reality on the ground may help curb their momentum.

Is this the same one he did one time over five or six years ago???

He's talking about the school shooting in Colorado, right?

Where's Willard Scott when we need him

"For the last time, I didn't know anything about Jeffrey Epstein's pedophilia ring, we were just best friends for over a decade and then finally had a falling out when he stole this seventeen-year-old blonde girl from me. I trust that settles it."

"They have no criminal record, but they're Iranians so they're a national security threat. That's why we're disappearing them and locking them up."

That was the same reasoning behind the WWII Japanese internment camps.

This administration is disgusting.

Welp, guess it's time for another corporate tax rate cut! We can make up the difference with higher sales taxes, right? Let's keep trying the same things!

Had my twentieth anniversary at work over a week ago and not a single person has said a word of recognition. Kinda disappointing but whatever, I guess

They aren't just conservatives anymore. If you look at the Republican Party, they're a party of white supremacists and nazis and domestic terrorists.

If that's the case, all of the poorly funded red states are in for a world of hurt

my hot take? a movie is by definition meant to be a standalone experience. even a movie that is part of a franchise or narrative trilogy must work as its own, self-contained story for it to even begin to qualify as good.

for my own part, i think municipalities should absolutely experiment with publicly-owned services like grocery stores.

NEBRASKA CROWD: “TAX THE RICH! TAX THE RICH!”

@USRepMikeFlood: “So your proposal to solve (the debt) is tax the rich?”

NEBRASKA CROWD: *CHEERS WILDLY*

(not sure this went quite as he planned 😬)

Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it, and those who can remember the past are like, what the hell, man?

A vastly underrated and under appreciated movie!

Good riddance to a man that has done just as much damage to this country as anyone else, and much more than most.

Musk is getting quite the return on his measly $288 million investment.

That Trump economy is really starting to take off
