Roger Sollenberger: Péter Magyar, the new Hungarian prime minister, says CPAC was paid by the Hungarian government and will not be any longer
Oh my what a Schlapp in the face this is
Trump: “I thought it was me as a doctor.”
Where tf is he getting his healthcare and how much are we paying for this?
“We always seem to have money for war. But not to feed the poor.”
It’s unclear where Melania would need to be that merits any private jet.
The Easter Bunny looks shocked
that their life choices led them there.
Prepare to take action on May First. Protests show awareness and they deter the worst. (16/17)

No sitting president has ever appeared for a SCOTUS oral argument because it looks like this.
Repeat after me: If they can overturn Roe v. Wade, we can overturn Citizens United.
Something for the mature audiences. 🦜
Russians work to pay Michael Flynn. Americans shouldn’t have to do it.
Goldman Sachs reports that 300 million full-time jobs could be replaced by AI by 2030. Labor turnover is high and hiring has slowed. 71% of Americans worry that AI will cause permanent job loss. As young people about to enter the workforce for the first time, the fear of unemployment is understandable, but we cannot save ourselves with the very tool that is putting us at risk. The irony is that as Penn pours endless money and energy into AI advancement in its attempt to get ahead, the University is only quickening its own demise. AI cannot coexist with education — it can only degrade it. As technology advances and workers are replaced by machines, schools are some of the only places we have left to explore and wrestle with human thought. With our own university leading the charge, AI is now corrupting those few sacred spaces and leaving us with nowhere to engage in true scholarship. Editorials represent the majority view of members of The Daily Pennsylvanian Editorial Board who meet regularly to discuss issues relevant to the Penn community.

An unaccounted for part of the economy is how much young people virulently hate AI, despite how aggressively it's being forced on them. They realize it's making their friends dumber and ruining the world and they want nothing to do with it.
From the Penn student paper:

Maybe Bailey takes another yacht tour or rents a place at Hancock Tower to “immerse himself” in Chicago.
Let him do 2022 again.
With four prior losses, James Marter (R) will be joining the Five Timer’s Club in 2026.
Big moment for him.
Let’s move on… and celebrate Pritzker’s inevitable win in the general.
So dark. Kushner raises billions for his fund while the family of a soldier killed in Truml’s war gets help on Go Fund Me: www.gofundme.com/f/major-alex...
I woke up punchy. I’m so sick of these motherfuckers and their bombs and their rapes and their violence.
We could be happy. We could have nice things like healthcare and childcare and UBI. It actually wouldn’t be that hard.
U.S. forces likely bombed an Iranian elementary school on Feb. 28 during an operation targeting a nearby military base, a New York Times analysis suggests. It is the deadliest known episode of civilian casualties since the U.S. and Israel attacked Iran — and no side has yet taken responsibility.
This is Benjamin Netanyahu's son Yair. While working class American service people are dying in the gratuitous war his father and Donald Trump started, Yair is poolside in Miami chilling.
No word on where Donald Trump's children were, just that they were 100% *not* wearing a uniform.
Where was FedEx when seven small business owners sued over Trump’s tariffs? Nowhere.
But now that money is in air, FedEx is happy to show up.
F*ck these big corporations for making small businesses do the hard work.
BREAKING: The House passed the so-called SAVE America Act which threatens to upend our freedom to vote.
The bill could disenfranchise millions of eligible voters by requiring documents like passports or birth certificates to register to vote and forcing voter roll purges. The Senate must reject it.
There is a major political organization allied with the president that got so mad a Latino artist was tapped to play at the Super Bowl they made a whole alternative show. We should all take a moment to reflect on that. It is so blatantly racist.
I can't think of anything I'd want to do less with my time than attending a protest against taxing billionaires. This is an insane amount of bootlicking energy.
If only Antifa existed and was this organized.
Apparently a guy worth over $200 BILLION can’t afford to keep a newspaper going.
How many bad things happen in the world because a “social media influencer” does something horrible to “expand their reach?”
They want us working earlier and til we die to pay for their tax cuts for the rich. Supervillains.
Epstein is the most garish and harrowing manifestation of this but oligarchy makes life miserable in a thousand other ways. A core point of democracy is that no one should have so much power that they can make themselves everybody's problem. We should have a political party that believes that
BREAKING: Bernie Sanders is introducing an amendment to cut ICE’s $75 billion funding increase, and to use those funds to restore the federal cuts to health care.
ICE will NEVER be “reined in” if they are funded. They serve to inflict violence against U.S. civilians without any accountability.
They will violate any conditions of funding the minute they get the money.
Any Democrat who is stupid enough to vote for ICE funding does not deserve a senate seat.
