Talarico: "There's another war in the Middle East. There's a cost of living crisis. There's a secret pedophile ring & no one has been prosecuted. So the people responsible are trying to distract us with the same old culture wars ... what do the American people care more about -- pronouns or prices?"

While The Post and Courier out of Charleston did indeed corroborate some of the alleged victim's details, the accusation of events from 1984 remain unsubstantiated at this time.
Two signs on a metal post. Top, a warning sign with an icon for an autonomous car. Below, a sign saying "Self-Driving TAXI"
Autonomous vehicles *may* improve safety and mobility one day. Join Consumer Reports to call on our governor to stand up for safety, and demand autonomous vehicle companies operate safely on our roads – esp. around emergency vehicles and school buses.

So, if I’m following the general tone here, he had the opportunity to address the nation about the grave responsibility of taking us to war and he just sht talked for a while and left
BREAKING: The US has bombed Tehran’s main refinery and burning oil is now flooding down the streets into the city’s sewers.
This is a vision from hell, unleashed by the US tonight.
(🎥 Vahid Online)
The oil depots in Sohanak, northeast of Tehran, Iran, are severely struck. Videos are showing massive fires all over the place.
Iran’s people were facing a horrible shortage of water before the war began. If we are destroying desalination plants and setting fire to Teheran we are committing unfathomable crimes.
Buttigieg: You’ve got money from the Middle East going into the Trump family crypto fund while you have Americans going to the Middle East for Donald Trump’s war.
Bill and Warren- Be like Christie!!
Christy Walton has entered the resistance- we need her money! I’m waiting for Warren Buffet and Bill Gates…. We’ll see if they have as much bravery as Christie! Bill and Warren- Be like Christie!
Ahead of the G20 summit in South Africa this weekend, our very own @abigaildisney.bsky.social penned an op-ed for @time.com making the case for why G20 leaders need to tax ultra-wealthy people like her to create more equal nations and a healthier planet.

Our member @abigaildisney.bsky.social has a message for leaders at World Economic Forum in Davos: Extreme wealth threatens global stability and our shared future.
That’s why Abby and nearly 400 millionaires from around the world signed our open letter calling on leaders to tax the super rich.
Like clockwork.
Learned something. The rapture is not in the Bible – the term was first used in 1830.
Oil up by $12 a barrel in less than 12 hours.
Gas prices skyrocketing.
Almost 100,000 jobs lost last month.
Another war in the Middle East.
Are we great again yet?
So Iran now has, perhaps for the first time, information about the location of our most sensitive covert sites in the region.
A completely foreseeable, unnecessary consequence of unnecessary war with Iran.
Governor Pritzker speaks at the Celebration of Life for Reverend Jackson.
Reverend Jackson will live on.
In his family.
In the countless lives that he touched.
In the public servants, elected officials, and leaders that have walked in the path that he set.
In the kinder, more just world that his advocacy built.
May his memory be a blessing to us all.
Matthew 25.
DHS nominee Markwayne Mullin is one of the most active stock-traders in the Senate — and violated the STOCK Act against insider trading as recently as last August.
He currently holds stock in L3Harris, which has millions in contracts with ICE and FEMA.
The grift continues.
Obama: "We are living in a time where it can be hard to hope. Each day we wake up to some new assault on our democratic institutions. Another setback to the idea of the rule of law ... but this man - Rev. Jesse Jackson - inspires us to take a harder path ... bc if we don't step up, nobody else will"

Abigail Disney is a Patriotic Millionaire! What the heck is that??
The sliver of wealthy Americans who say, "Tax me more!"
Give them a follow and help spread the word!
Every politician in America who says they support working people should embrace this idea that allows working people keep more of the money they make, that stops the federal government from taxing people into poverty, and adds nothing to the budget deficit.

You may have heard: “The top 1% pay 40% of income taxes” why raise taxes on the wealthy? The real issue isn't the 1%. It's the top 0.1% & 0.01%, where massive fortunes grow & tax rules are incredibly regressive.
The result? A tiny slice of Americans control trillions in wealth.
Business leaders’ refuse to pay wages that workers can live on & Congress fails to raise the federal minimum wage trap millions of workers in cycles of poverty.
But we know paying people good wages they can live & thrive on is good for business, the economy, & our country.
The 20 largest low-wage employers in the U.S. pay millions of workers poverty wages while their CEOs take home an average of $18.6 million a year.
If corporations can afford billions in stock buybacks, they can afford to pay their workers a living wage. ips-dc.org/report-ameri...
From New York to California to Washington, states are ramping up efforts to tax the super rich.
Why? Because extreme wealth concentration is making life unaffordable for everyone else.
This week’s Closer Look shows how momentum is growing across the U.S. patrioticmillionaires.org/perspectives...

Want to know what patriotism actually looks like? Just ask @abigaildisney.bsky.social, who supports raising taxes on super rich people like herself.
Our members are clear: They want a rich, stable, and free country. That begins with an economy that ensures it.
