People should not have weapons of war. A gun that shoots someone from 2 football fields away is just that. Maybe just maybe let’s just please try to give gun control a try and see if we can reduce the amount of people, young and old, senselessly dying of horrific gun violence.

One day after the Supreme Court lifted the ban on racial profiling, federal agents swarmed a car in Van Nuys.
Four masked agents with guns drawn yanked people out, slammed them to the ground, and pointed a weapon at a pregnant woman.
There is no justification for this. None.
Remember: The recipe for economic growth isn’t tax cuts for the rich. It’s investment in our people — in health care, infrastructure and education — to build a strong middle class.
You don't grow the economy through trickle-down nonsense.
So it is the guns then? 🤔

RFK Jr: It's gonna be the biggest infusion of federal dollar into rural healthcare in American history
BERNIE SANDERS: Yeah. You know why? Because you're cutting $150b for rural hospitals, you're putting $50b back. That's not an infusion. That's a loss of $100b.

The 100 lowest-paying US corporations spent $644B on stock buybacks from 2019 to 2024.
Buybacks artificially boost share prices and inflate CEO pay.
The typical worker at these companies earned $35k last year.
Meanwhile, the average CEO was paid $17.2M
See the problem?
It’s really scary living in a country where one person thinks he can be the judge, jury and executioner, as opposed to believing that everyone is entitled to due process under the law.
Bove is going to be the new Clarence Thomas, but worse (until he gets elevated): A petulant, vindictive asshole who is going to use the bench to make up for his moral emptiness and deep sense of inadequacy
The man's arrest is the latest case of federal authorities detaining immigrants with legal status during immigration check-ins. Lawmakers call the detainment of those who helped U.S. troops at war a betrayal. [via @wbur.org]
A feel happy video I found, to close my Internet for tonight. It’s 1:30 AM.
I know I’m just a dumb lawyer in a blue state, but is anyone else struggling to understand how the S. Ct says it’s ok & w/in a Pres’s authority to commit illegal acts in his official capacity, but it is not within a President’s authority to help student borrowers facing predatory interest rates?
7 years of school, 16 years of practice and literally everything I thought I knew went out the window when a bought and sold corrupt court appointed by a sexual predator put out the most bass ackwards opinion of all time
The Long Walk
The cruelty is the whole point for these people. How can you treat other humans like this?

The milennial population is the most left leaning because each of the 3 republican presidents in our lifetimes have crashed the economy, started a war, and accelerated the wealth disparity weakening the middle class.
There is no gloating in this she told you all so. Just please, please open your eyes. I am exhausted being in the minority that chooses empathy, diplomacy, and non-violent solutions. #nomorewar
A judge in Wisconsin last month, a sitting US senator today. The attack on the checks and balances is out in the open- you have to be deliberate in your ignorance to excuse this behavior. #standupfordemocracy

I lost a friend this week to suicide. I hadn’t seen her in 2 years. I am ashamed that I had no idea about her struggle. I wish could to go back in time and tell her the battles I have faced and fight through daily, and let her know she’s not alone. Let’s stop the stigma. #MentalHealthAwareness
Scott Galloway absolutely dismantles Elon Musk and his deranged sycophants here.
Yes—character matters.
Yes—technical innovation does not excuse moral bankruptcy.
Yes—we must choose better role models for our children.
I agree with every word.
Absolutely incredible article. His legacy should be as the biggest failure this world has ever seen, a grifter and international criminal who is directly responsible for 300,000 deaths in Africa alone.

Is it crazy that I think maybe we just give PCA that Tucker $400 million contract now? #cubs
Why did nobody tell me that being a man in your 40’s includes crying for celebrities that pass away? Don’t mind me, watching Cheers reruns and crying. RIP George Wendt. #cheers #whereeveryoneknowsyourname #georgewendt

Poor judgment to spell judgment incorrectly Dan

I am so happy for Javy. That is all.
This is a perfect example of republicans class warfare, education is for me and my family, but not for them.
