Tesla saved $400 million on its federal taxes by shifting billions of its U.S. profits to countries with lower tax rates.
Yes: While you paid your taxes in full, giant corporations maneuvered to pay as little as possible — and it’s all perfectly legal for them.
The system is rigged.
34… 4… what’s a little exaggeration of 30 ships amongst friends?

$10 gas is coming this summer. It's time to build alternatives NOW
A WIRED investigation has identified multiple members of the paramilitary units behind some of the most egregious immigration enforcement actions of the last year. from @awinston.bsky.social and @regret.bsky.social
here it is. one single picture that perfectly captures why we have a housing crisis.
it’s not blackrock. it’s not the developers. it’s the boomers who will yell at any politician who wants to build more housing
may this be the beginning of something
Alltrna has received approval to initiate the first clinical trial of a tRNA therapeutic! It's more than a company milestone, it's a first step toward a different model for rare disease drug development, built around shared genetic mutations instead of treating one disease at a time.

This lawless administration has been defying court orders for more than a year and until there are serious repercussions for this corrupt regime's sense of impunity, nothing will change.
Now get out and vote in the midterms like your life depends on it, because it does. #NoKings

Tweet from unusual whales: BREAKING: Just five minutes before Trump's announcement to halt the attacks on Iran, massive trades reportedly hit the market. In one move, $1.5 billion in S&P 500 (ES) futures was bought while $192 million in oil (CL) futures was sold. These orders were 4–6x larger than anything else at the time. The trader seemingly made huge gains. Unusual.
$1.5B in a single trade made 5 minutes before Trump’s announcement yesterday. Who made it?
We couldn't agree more that this is a massive scandal. Jared Kushner cannot get away with taking billions from foreign countries while setting US foreign policy.
He needs to divest from Affinity and disclose his conflicts.
Americans are dying so that Kushner can make money
I'm not "anti-car." I own a car. I drive (more than I'd like). I'm opposed to car culture and car dependecy. And I'm supportive of safe and efficient transit options for *everyone.*
It now appears clear that Jeffrey Epstein did NOT off himself, based on staff talk overheard by inmates, independent bank reports that large deposits of money were made to the guard in charge at the time, and 2 suspiciously nonfunctioning cameras.

-Zero Congressional consultation or approval.
-Zero preparation of public for need/consequences of war.
-Zero evidence of thought about "OK, what might the other side do?" Next month. Next year.
-Zero mention of anti-nuke agreement Trump voided, or Trump claim last year that nukes "obliterated."
Trump lies: "I don't know anything about the Epstein files. I've been fully exonerated."
This is a big one. A newly uncovered document has revealed the existence of a mystery Epstein investigation. It was spearheaded by the DEA and involved drug trafficking and money laundering. Epstein was one of 15 targets. The other 14 names are redacted. I've got questions.
We are the laughingstock of the world because of our moronic and psychotic president. Deservedly so.
A lot of places are about to be bombed in a country far away and a good many people killed because Donald Trump cannot make anyone forget or ignore the accusations of what he did with young girls.
That is now the foreign policy of the United States.
Just take a look at this and remember, Pam Bondi's concern here was not with any of the victims of these crimes but with the nosy Democrats who actually gave a shit about them.
Listen to this. Not a penny more for this. Abolish and prosecute anyone who had anything to do with it.
Distraught woman says ICE killed her wife in video after deadly Minneapolis shooting "They killed my wife," the distraught woman says, adding, "They shot her in the head." An ICE agent shot and killed a 37-year-old woman who was driving an SUV in Minneapolis on Wednesday. / Screenshot/@Breaking911
"They killed my wife. I don't know what to do," the woman says through sobs in the footage, with a damaged SUV visible in the distance behind her. "We stopped to videotape, and they shot her in the head," the woman cries. "We have a six-year-old at school," she says, almost unable to breathe, as a chaotic scene in which federal officers prevented at least one doctor who was on the scene from assisting the shot victim unfolds. "We're new here," the distraught woman says in despair.
You and your wife drop your 6-year-old off at school. You just moved here. You see ICE terrorizing your new neighbors. You film them, as is your legal right. Your wife complies with orders. She is then shot in the head. You still have to pick up your child later today.
This could be you.
FOLKS IN MINNEAPOLIS:
SAVE all videos & photos from today. They will be valuable to prove the ICE agent --- who had time to move & re-position himself to the side of the victim's car to shoot into the driver's side window --- was not in reasonable fear of imminent serious physical injury or death.
This is what it looks like when a city is more comfortable sending bodies to the morgue than cars to the body shop.
If you let him get away with this, he’ll do it with Iran and whatever other neocon bugaboos have been lingering around conservative media since Obama first started running. Maybe Greenland but less intense because white. One of them will invariably respond in the mainland U.S. Stop him before then.
