“The wrongs which we seek to condemn and punish have been so calculated, so malignant and so devastating that civilization cannot tolerate their being ignored because it cannot survive their being repeated.”
—Justice Robert H. Jackson, Chief American Prosecutor, Nuremberg, 1946

Meta just paid the lowest effective federal tax rate in its history.
Thanks to tax breaks and loopholes, it avoided $13.7B in 2025 federal income taxes.
But now it's planning to lay off 10% of its global workforce (8,000 people) by May 20 — with more job cuts later this year.
Trickle down hoax.
The 3rd woman; could we cheer for 2 men to balance it out a bit, like Patel and Hegbreath?
BREAKING: Labor Secretary Lori Chavez-DeRemer has resigned.
2026-04-21 03:49:16 - U.S. Senate Democratic leader Schumer: FBI Director Patel must resign immediately. One more day that he remains in office will expose the United States to one more serious and avoidable risk.
Mainstream media is failing its duty to hold this administration accountable. Reputable Independent media must be supported to keep the public informed of ALL the facts, & Republicans must be accountable for betraying democracy and the Constitution. Democratic politicians must be louder with facts❗️
How I love Facebook, where we can post this @annabjournalist.bsky.social story -- wide-ranging and deeply-reported -- about Democratic prospects in Huntsville, and get dozens of comments that have *nothing* to do with the piece.
Democratic House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries:
"If you believe that we should stop the MAGA power grab and level the playing field across the nation, then vote 'yes' on the referendum in Virginia on April 21st."
Democratic House Rep. Hakeem Jeffries is getting fired about Donald Trump's "reckless" war in Iran and Pete Kegbreath:
"Why is Pete Hegseth still around? He should have never even been elevated to this position. He's the most unqualified Secretary of Defense in history."

These are unprecedented times that call for unprecedented action. Trump started this fight in Texas trying to rig the elections (via Republican elected officials) Virginia will end this fight via the Democratic process and let the VOTERS decide. #VoteYesVirginia

Democratic Rep. Jim McGovern slams Republicans for their FISA provision last week:
"Republicans spent most of last week negotiating with themselves...The sloppy way they drafted this provision may have actually expanded warrantless surveillance in some cases, not eliminated it."
Go Jim!
Would it be possible for the next Democratic president to offer amnesty to any deported immigrant who had no criminal charges and offer them green cards if they want to come back? Those who have American citizen spouses and children or who served in the U.S Military could be first in line.
Putin must be so proud of himself for the impact he has had on the U.S.

How tragic that you could publish, then re-publish, then re-publish, then re-publish, then re-publish a cartoon like this over and over again...
When Trump loses power, his assets should be liquidated and returned to the American people.
Today I turn 89. I’ve seen this country at its best and its worst, and I know how much community matters. For my birthday, I’m asking you to stand with PFLAG and support the work that’s helped so many in the LGBTQ+ community, including me. give.pflag.org/page/95493/d...

Monday vibe. Always nice to come out to a charged vehicle. Can you imagine having a gas pump at home that only costs 30 cents per gallon? ⛽️⚡️🔌

Got our solar panels installed this AM. They came at 8:30am and we're gone by 1:30pm. 13 panels and 10kwh battery.
We can't export to the grid yet (the network operator has been flooded with new requests) but we charged our car with the sun this afternoon. Great feeling, strongly recommend.
Ossof for president. Interesting part of this biography is that: he was:
'Mentored by civil rights legend Congressman John Lewis, Sen. Ossoff previously led a small business that produced investigative journalism exposing war crimes, public corruption, human trafficking, and organized crime'. 👍
We must require ALL data centers and other extremely large corporate users of electricity to generate their own electricity at their own expense If we don't do this, we are either idiots and/or masochists.
When a war is fought on social media, America has lost all credibility. We no longer have allies. The midterms might help, but other countries are not just going to give us a pass. They will use this to their advantage, as they should, particularly as American citizens seem fine with it.
BREAKING: 86% of all people support the release of the Epstein files, per WaPo poll.
You gotta give to the GOP.
They trained their voters to hate “libs” so much they would gratefully accept every manner of corruption, lawlessness, cruelty, ineptitude, and criminality, and cheer it on, so long as it is their team doing it.
Of COURSE he's insider trading. He's a crook, he's ALWAYS been a crook, he's using the presidency to make billions.
He ran to stay out of jail, to make money and to feel powerful, because that's what a narcissist like him gets off on. It was never about helping people.
Release the #EpsteinFiles NOW....

There should be a law passed, and enforced, that we will no longer have for profit prisons of any kind! Ever again! Incentivized incarceration should be a crime against humanity and should be retroactively enforced! They know what they are doing is wrong!
I believe it would be beneficial to American if we were to take away the lifetime healthcare and pensions for elected representatives and made them find healthcare and benefits just like their constituents
We have created lifetime of benefits for a job that was not meant to be a career
Term limits!
SEN. @ossoff.senate.gov : “The faithless president depicts himself as Christ while he plunges the nation into wars of choice… Remember — While you pay more for everything, the First Family’s wealth is growing by billions. Because they’re crooks, and everybody knows it.”
Today's winner of the Internet. Congratulations!
