It seems like a Prime Minister who continues to get his corruption trial delayed for years because his government is engaged in wars has a personal incentive to keep wars going as long as possible.

While death and destruction rained down on Iran during the war’s first month, the world’s 100 biggest oil and gas companies brought in an extra $30 million per HOUR in windfall profits.
Yes, $30 million per HOUR.
All because of the deadly and reckless decision making of one man.

"The masters of war pretend not to know that it takes only a moment to destroy, yet a lifetime is often not enough to rebuild. They turn a blind eye to the fact that billions of dollars are spent on killing and devastation, yet the resources needed for healing, education and restoration are nowhere to be found." -Pope Leo XIV
Disney's new CEO, whose pay package is worth nearly $45M, just announced 1,000 layoffs.
Reminder that Disney paid an effective federal income tax rate of ZERO in 2025 and aims to buy back $7B of its own stock in 2026.
This is what corporate greed looks like.
Says the problem…
Not feeling good about giving my hard earned money to the oligarchs, to fund illegal & unnecessary "wars,"or fund any of this admin's crooked schemes.
Not at all 'good.'
Ann Richard’s and Molly Ivins.
Texas misses Ann and Molly Ivins terribly.
Pretty soon the only industries that will be left in the USA are going to be for profit prisons, detainment warehouses, and data centers.

Congrats! I get it. I’m a lifelong Texas Rangers fan (watched a LOT of losing) and I’m still celebrating their 2023 WS win.👍🏼
Who's your friend when things get rough?😉
"Pope says he does not fear US president" is an interesting thing to see on the news ticker while catching a train.
The American president counts Vladimir Putin and Kim Jong-Un as his friends while denouncing the Pope.
So glad to see someone so beautifully articulate what I think about almost every day….
We can all see it. There is no denying it.
Our president is severely mentally ill , and we have a why to deal with it.
The 25th Amendment.
If only we had true leaders that would act
A worker died at an Amazon warehouse in Oregon last week.
For more than an hour, workers were instructed to continue working as the man lay dead.
One worker wanted to help, but a manager told them to “Just turn around and not look. Let’s get back to work," according to @thewesternedge.bsky.social.
AN ALCOHOLIC TV TALKING HEAD RUNS OUR MILITARY, A FORMER HEROIN ADDICT IS IN CHARGE OF OUR HEALTH, AND THEY BOTH REPORT TO A CONVICTED FELON.
SO HOW'S YOUR DAY GOING?
Republicans have emboldened and unleashed a TRAITOR ignoring their sworn duty to protect us! Every single one #SCOTUS who broke their own oath for this maniac should be indicted, prosecuted and imprisoned for TREASON! If you aide and comfort a traitor you are a traitors! He's the Betrayer in Chief!
The effective federal corporate income tax rate:
1950: 50%
1990: 25%
2020: 13%
Stop asking "but how we will pay for it?" Restore the corporate tax rate.
That is how we will pay for it.
Jerusalem? The Kremlin?🤔
The US is like that neighbor who thinks its ok to buy new cars, boats, ATVs, etc., but not ok to pay for piano lessons, braces, a new mattress, or anything else intangible.
It really is ok to use tax revenue to pay for things besides war, war equipment, and bases everywhere in the world.
So there’s no regime change, we lift all sanctions against them going back decades, they retain missile and drone capabilities, they control the strait and can charge tolls, and keep their enriched uranium. So much for “unconditional surrender.”
