For further context, Georgia-Pacific is owned by Koch Industries, which is run by the sugar daddies of the GOP neocon establishment.
Their political network spent a fortune propping up campaigns to keep the Texas two-step alive.
This is their idea of "freedom."
Innocent people get cancer because of their actions, and they profit off of it without any consequences by bribing politicians.
"At the time of the bankruptcy filing, Georgia-Pacific faced 64,000 lawsuits alleging that the company's drywall, wallboard, plaster and other construction materials contained asbestos and caused cancer....cancer victims argued that Bestwall was abusing U.S. bankruptcy law to prevent them from trying their cases in other courts, without offering any real path to settling the cases in bankruptcy."

The Supreme Court refused to hear a challenge to the "Texas two-step," letting corporations fraudulently use bankruptcy court to quarantine mass injury claims while the profitable parent company keeps operating.
Georgia-Pacific is a massive building materials manufacturer that shifted asbestos liabilities into a separate corporate entity, and then filed for "bankruptcy," which paused cancer victims' lawsuits and preserved their power and profits.
These companies are not meaningfully broke... but they use bankruptcy as a weapon against their victims. It's ridiculous. Our nation's highest court is clearly not a neutral entity if they won't even look at this obvious financial fraud doing significant harm to innocent Americans.
Oh for F’s sake! It’s insurance! Healthy people don’t need it…UNTIL THEY DO! That doesn’t make them not legit. These goons have never lived in the real world.
🚨MUST-WATCH: Rep. Dean just read a page of Virginia Giuffre’s book to Todd Blanche:
"I hope for a world in which predators are punished, not protected; victims are treated with compassion, not shamed; and powerful people face the same consequences as anyone else."
POWERFUL! 💔
ICE shouldn't even exist. Homeland security was created to make sure nobody flew planes into buildings after 9/11. It was never supposed to be a brutal private police force
🚨 Republican Larry Householder was convicted of accepting over $60 million in bribes.
He is now seeking a Trump pardon, which many believe will be granted.
At a time when ocean temperatures are smashing records and scientists are still trying to understand how fast the system is shifting under climate change, they are talking about scrapping a 368 million dollar early warning network that has ALREADY BEEN PAID FOR by tax payers.
This is not just a few sensors in the sea. It is a network of ~900 instruments measuring temperature, currents, carbon, chemistry and ecosystem change. It was designed to deliver long term data over decades.
This would effectively end key long running records and that matters because ocean data only becomes powerful over time. You cannot rebuild a continuous climate record once it is interrupted.
I just saw a post from an elderly woman selling her most treasured belongings (including her engagement ring) to help pay for her husband’s cancer treatment. No one should have to make that choice.
Tell me again why the United States is being run by billionaires (many who are in the Epstein files) and doesn’t have Universal Healthcare.
🚨A 40-year-old Florida Trump supporter who posted racist cotton-picking memes and meme’s calling America’s first black First Lady a man on social media, Trent Plather, has been arrested for the second time on child s*xual abuse materials charges.
Police found 42,000 explicit images of children on his devices and he illegally possessed firearms as a convicted felon.
Prather also posted images of George Floyd’s face printed on pillows calling them “knee pads.” Floyd is a black man who died in Minneapolis after police officer Derek Chauvin knelt on his neck for almost 10 minutes.
More of his disgusting Facebook posts are in the thread👇
At Trump’s watch, many workers have been laid off. Here in Omaha Nebraska 5000+ jobs have been lost.
The video shows at 450 workers who have been told to leave at Tyson .
The Freedom 250 concert got canceled. UFC fighters are backing out. His name will be removed from The Kennedy Center. The $1.776 billion slush fund is dead. Watching Trump’s vanity projects crash and burn has been giving me life.
F**ck that loser.
On September 6, 2021, Sascha Riley, a decorated war hero, wrote this on his Facebook, the account of how trump raped him when he was a little boy. These are serious accusations. Why the fuck is trump not going after Sascha? Is trump afraid of the discovery if he sues Sascha? Read this please.
“You starve your public schools to feed your private schools and charter schools,” said one superintendent about the state’s efforts to grow charter schools. “Our foundation was set up for a free and appropriate education for all kids. All kids!”

The mother pleaded with the court to stop her ex-husband from seeing their daughters. The judge denied her. He killed all three children. Yet somehow, the blame is still placed on the mother.
It is no surprise this article was written by a man.
Sen. Murphy to Markwayne Mullin: "You've spent the first two months of your tenure threatening to suspend international arrivals in states represented by Democrats. Not only would that throw our entire air travel system into chaos. It's completely illegal."
They tried so hard to suppress this video today.
