Tax billionaire wealth.

I frankly don't care if a billionaire can make a second billion. I'd rather have the average person be able to make their first $100k.

The Supreme Court thinks the Founders would consider this “speech”. They’ve lost their minds.

Tina Peters is a convicted felon.

She belongs in prison, not in the Oval Office advising the President.

In America you can watch a firing squad, but can't watch Stephen Colbert.

“A feature of fascism is the transformation of politics into spectacle. Fascism wants to reduce active citizens into voyeurs—especially voyeurs of cruelty and death. Such degradation of a democratic public is key to fascism’s project and to its success.”

How many young people in the South are having the exact same experience as this gentleman?

An extremely relevant paper, given the renewed concern that wealth taxes lead to massive out-migration:

The Norwegian wealth tax "exodus", discussed in global media, never happened. At most 100 individuals left. Tax revenue increased by +71.5%. No changes in business activity.

[Sen. Bernie Sanders @SenSanders]

The level of income and wealth inequality in the U.S. is beyond insane.

The top 0.00001% (just 20 households) now owns over $4 trillion — more than 12 times the wealth of the bottom 50% COMBINED.

We must defeat oligarchy. Billionaire wealth tax NOW.

My kids have measles, I can’t afford diesel, I lost my job, and my country just lost a war to Iran. But at least now I can watch firing squad executions on TV.

The MAGA regime recently killed the largest ancient 250 year old “Grandmother” Cottonwood tree in Arizona’s indigenous territory just to expand the orange felon’s fucking wall.

I’ll never forgive anyone who chose this evil.

[Robert Reich @RBReich]

Why have so many people fallen behind?

It's not because of immigrants, trans people, or any other bogeyman trotted out by the GOP.

It's because corporations and billionaires rigged the system in their favor — and a bought-off political establishment let it happen.

It's time to fix the system.

It turns out that people who have spent decades studying economics knew more about tariffs than a reality TV game show host

Who could have guessed?!

[Andy Herman @AndyHermanNFL]

One of the biggest issues we have as a society is platforming and magnifying loud people instead of smart & genuinely good people. It’s a huge reason for a ton of problems.

[NYTPitchbot @DougJBalloon]

Whether it's Bill Clinton using tax-payer money to pay for postage on letters sent to people who wrote to his cat or Donald Trump steering hundreds of millions of dollars of contracts to his son's companies, both presidents engaged in corruption on an unprecedented scale.

Can't recall a top-tier HS football league struggle as much as the PAL Bay this season.

PAL Bay's six teams: 8-19, w/only LG above .500.

PAL De Anza teams (tier below Bay): 23-5, with all six teams above .500

De Anza teams are 6-1 vs. Bay teams
