“Koch brother groups have tried to derail public transit plans in other cities around the country, from Little Rock, Arkansas and central Utah, to Nashville and Michigan. They have frequently called such projects ‘wasteful spending’. The Koch organization is also heavily invested in fossil fuels.”

Other than reinforcing racism and misogyny , isn't this the ONLY reason for anything this orange sundowner does?
The only reason to announce a total victory before reaching a signed deal is to manipulate the markets for profit taking.
Seems like the Strait of Hormuz is only open when the stock market is.
One of my kids lives in the Netherlands.
Beautiful & peaceful.
They have free health care and meds. If you have a baby its free. Nurse visits if wanted plus a year paid leave .
Excellent schools (free- with healthy, delicious food.)
Image a government that exists to make people happy!
Just because Caitlyn Jenner is an objectively horrible person doesn’t mean it’s okay to deadname her. Please don’t.
I want to swap out my old Corolla for an EV next year, but I have zero interest in spending $50k for one, which is the only price US carmakers are interested in.
If one of them rolled out a $22k EV it be the best-selling vehicle within a year. So why won't they? Big Oil, the Shithead in power.
Prime so sucks at sports coverage....once again a solid half second lag on video vs audio...

Preliminary SSTs are spiking near a new record all-time high. The final data will take about 2 weeks to be posted. With the record ocean heatwave in the Eastern pacific and a rapidly developing El Nino, hang on to your tenterhooks!
Nothing makes me appreciate being Canadian more than spending the entire day in the hospital with extensive testing and only having to pay for parking Holy shit.....

Hmmmm. wonder if she's ever seen a guillotine?
Apple is closing its first unionized store in the country.
Reminder that Apple spent $700B+ on stock buybacks over the past decade.
CEO Tim Cook raked in over $74M in compensation in 2025 — 650 times the median Apple employee's pay.
The greed of union-busters knows no end.
oh no. the owner of the bookstore my husband wants to have my book launch at is willing & excited. I checked with my acting chair & she’s excited, too. so it looks like it’s actually going to happen.
but what if no one comes & it’s just me & this big book cake? help.
Our team received a report of intermittent app outages at about 11:40pm PDT on April 15, 2026. They worked through the night to mitigate a sophisticated Distributed Denial-of-Service (DDoS) attack, which intensified throughout the day.

Tesla
Southwest
Disney
Live Nation
HP
United
PayPal
CVS Health
Palantir
Citigroup
PG&E
3M
That's right. They paid $0 in federal income tax.
It's time for big corporations to pay their fair share.

After a while, the public just stops attaching any credibility to them.
As happened in Hungary.
