HEDY LAMARR escaped from her Nazi husband by disguising herself as her own maid, became a Hollywood star, then co-developed a radio guidance system for Allied torpedoes - the principles of which are incorporated into today’s Bluetooth and GPS technology.
Hell of a lady.

They’re taking it well.
The Brits appear ready to shame the US news media into covering this, distracted as they are by gazing at their own navels ...
So much false equivalence in media on gerrymandering in Texas vs California & Virginia. California and Virginia maps approved by the voters. That's a huge difference not enough people pointing out
it is so telling that referendum was up to the voters in Virginia and California, but not Texas. Here they just did it. They wouldn't put it up to a vote. Tonight it really looks like cowardice.

This is fun
Not a President……a terrorist!
The right gambled, tried to rig the election, lost, and now it’s excuses and tears.
Thanks for everything, Virginia. 🙏🏽

This👇🏼. AOC is the only one stating it clearly and plainly. Do I have any faith that the American people will ever elect a woman president someday? No. I hope I’m proven wrong.
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.
In a nutshell. 😊
Turns out the phrase “America First” is preceded by the words “Sell Out.”
Today we remember the horrific tragedy of the Columbine shooting. 27 years later, it is a disgrace that gun violence is still the leading cause of death for children in America.
A mass shooting that took the lives of eight children should stop this country in its tracks. Instead, the Shreveport tragedy disappeared from the headlines in a day. We cannot allow this level of violence to fade into background noise. Ending America’s gun‑violence epidemic is a moral oblligation.

I don’t think we talk nearly enough about the fact that corporations like Amazon, don’t pay a single cent to maintain the roads they use, the transportation system they use, the courts they use, they pay nothing for the infrastructure that is absolutely critical to their business.

Good night kids! 8 children were shot to death in Mike Johnson's hometown this morning. What are odds Johnson will want to do something about gun deaths? He'll probably say he didn't see anything about it. That's pretty much the gop response to mass shootings. 8 kids are dead. We should be ashamed.
It kills me how actually decent and incredibly talented people who contribute so much to society and their communities struggle to find work, while the worst people to ever breathe who demonstrate incompetence several times daily, remain gainfully employed. some at the highest levels of government
In the same manifesto, Palantir's owners argued that we need a national military draft, that soft power is over, and that we were too hard on Germany and Japan after World War II. I don't think that company should be allowed to exist anymore.
