US corporate profits have hit a record high of over $9 trillion the first half of this year, while workers’ slice of the pie has recently sunk to historic lows.
The median cost to incarcerate someone is about $66,000. The median cost to permanently house and feed someone is $16,000. They don’t want to govern. They want to oppress. So much so they made being poor a crime.
Trump just called the Supreme Court’s mail-voting decision “a great ruling for the Republican Party.” He didn’t say it was great for voters or election security. He said it was great for his party.
If your party’s big election win is making it harder for people to vote by mail, maybe the problem isn’t mail-in voting. Maybe it’s your party.
Crazy how the people who committed these horrific atrocities can walk around the world freely while the people who protest against it are labeled evil antisemitic terrorists.
The Mayor of Tempe, AZ announces the city has turned off all Flock cameras:
"The risk of misuse is too great. We have to be able to provide public safety in a way that maintains the trust of our community. For Tempe, that means taking these cameras down.”
🚨 BREAKING:
After 76 years, the ICJ in The Hague described Israel's practices in the occupied Palestinian territories as apartheid.
This means they no longer recognize Israel as a state.
In a separate dissent, Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson accused the majority of “taking its eye off the ball” by focusing on a technical legal argument instead of what she views as the larger goal of the Trump administration: “to secure our imprimatur for its effort to foment chaos ahead of the November elections.”
WOW. The Supreme Court just let the Trump Admin move ahead (for now) with its plan to disenfranchise voters across the country.
California will be suing AGAIN to block these Orwellian rules from being implemented.
propaganda is so crazy because what do you mean you’re a group devoted to destroying the careers of actors who speaks out against genocide and you call yourself “creative communities for peace”
It's utterly ridiculous that we have all these supposed billionaire geniuses running around, and their greatest innovation of our lifetime has been stealing our personal data to sell us targeted ads.
An ICE agent scanned the wrong license plate, chased the wrong man, and ended up shooting Julio Sosa-Celis through his own front door. DHS’s first story: Sosa-Celis attacked agents with a broom and snow shovel. City surveillance video proved that was false — the whole struggle lasted about 12 seconds. DHS admitted its agents gave “untruthful” sworn testimony. Charges against Sosa-Celis were dropped with prejudice.
The agent, Christian Castro, is now charged with 4 counts of assault + falsely reporting a crime. He fled to Texas.
Greg Abbott is refusing to extradite him. Minnesota’s AG just sued Abbott to force it.
A Republican governor is actively shielding a federal agent from facing trial for shooting an innocent man and lying about it under oath.
Texas, you have a job to do in November. And then justice can finally be delivered.
