So … the power brokers in college sports and a bipartisan group of pocket watchers are coming together to restrict the market value of college athletes. They do not want to have to negotiate with labor and have recruited Congress and the Trump Administration to pull it off
Donald Trump’s spiral continues. The failed president, pocketing billions as he drives up prices, is afraid to lose the midterms. So he will reheat debunked election conspiracy theories and tell bizarre new lies to deny his 2020 defeat and attack voting rights. This is a disaster for Trump puppet Mike Collins. Already mired in scandal, Mike will now have to double down on conspiracy theories toxic in the General Election. From the start, Trump’s obsession with Georgia elections revealed his fury that Black voters were instrumental to his defeat. I'm asking concerned citizens nationwide to join me and support our voter protection efforts in Georgia.
This morning in Biddeford, Maine, a 26-year-old man said goodbye to his wife and daughter and left for work. Moments later he was dead, shot in the head by ICE agents, the second man ICE has killed in six days.
ICE is killing our neighbors. ICE cannot be reformed. Abolish ICE.
Republicans will harp on and on about decreasing birth rate and having more kids, then when the kids get here say things like this.
YES. It’s the job of the collective to fund and help all of our youth be the best they can be.
YES. It’s our job to spend tax payer money of initiatives, education, athletics, theatre, arts, to maximize their potential.
I pay $200,000 in taxes. 80% of that goes towards killing people and other horseshit.
33% of the worldwide military spending is spent by 1 country. I'm sure you can figure out which country that is. And yet we can't figure out a way to fund things like youth programs.
Im sure I speak for many people when I say that I want that money to go towards things like youth programs (and other programs that actually improve society as a whole). Europe does this in a much smaller scale and it works. Why are we trying to reinvent the wheel and shove capitalistic enshittification into things like sports?
Only rich kids can play in the top tier of sports, effectively limiting access to only 0.5-1% of the population, and we are confused why we can't foster top talent.
So tired of the constant greed thats infected everything in the US. Its silently destroying everything.
