Mr.Beast is renowned for his altruism but a deep dive into what's behind it reveals a highly deceptive world of sponsors and PR campaigns. It greenwashes environmental issues and helps monopolies get away with destroying the planet, not to mention serves as an ironclad PR campaign for his brand

The Old Rules Are For Losers | Defector The further we get away from the 2016 Democratic National Convention the more I become convinced that Michelle Obama standing on that stage saying, “When they go low, we go high,” was a death knell. B...

Arizona Regulators Closed a Failing Charter School. It Reopened as a Private Religious School Funded by Taxpayers. Arizona’s acclaimed voucher program provides zero transparency into private schools’ history, academic performance or financial sustainability to help parents make informed school choices.

NEW: Arizona does not vet new voucher schools. Not even if the school or the online school “provider” has already failed, or was founded yesterday, or is operating out of a strip mall, or offers just a half hour of instruction per morning.

Journalists: Trump brings fresh perspective to cup debate

Trump won the election. They are making a play, however feeble, to prevent more of their people from dying. Mocking this as stupid is genuinely disgusting.
