Given all that's happened to this site since the richest man in the world took it over, can we finally retire the myth that billionaires are so rich because they're just that much smarter and harder working than everyone else?

Do I have this right...Chief Justice Roberts launched a full-scale investigation into a leaked opinion but has done nothing to investigate members of the Court who are jetting around with GOP megadonors?

Great thread on the science behind the "kids these days" fallacy.

New study on bike helmets has some shocking findings:

⛑️ Cyclist with helmets are seen as less human
🦺 Cyclists wearing safety vests as least human
😱 Dehumanization leads to being discounted, ignored, mistreated, or deliberately harmed

Split decision on LRS' case against the state of Utah.

More uncertainty and wasted resources for a project that should have never received taxpayer dollars.

Defaulting on the debt—including trillions incurred under Donald Trump—could mean seniors missing Social Security checks and millions of jobs lost.

It sounds like the head of the Republican Party thinks that’s a price worth paying to elect Republicans.

[Senator Adam Schiff @SenAdamSchiff]

Let’s not overcomplicate this:

Republicans passed a $2 trillion tax cut for billionaires and corporations.

And now they’re refusing to pay for it.

It’s really that simple.

@SpeakerMcCarthy @itsmevyy You are willing to crash the world economy to please your base, even though it was you and your president who ran up more than 20% of the debt. We see you and we will never forget.

OK, now let's talk about the deficit.

The last 3 GOP Presidents saw the deficit rise on their watch.

The last 3 Dems lowered it. Trump had worst fiscal record since WWII. 11/

The scale of white collar fraud by rich people is almost unimaginable to most people, partly because it’s so much more than all other property crime combined, and partly because daily news isn’t filled with all the anecdotes each day. Massively corrupt legal system.

Over 30 years ago, Donald Trump took out full page ads calling for my execution.

On the day he was arrested and arraigned, here is my ad in response.

@Jim_Jordan Hey @Jim_Jordan, name one major city in Ohio with a lower crime rate than NYC.

Columbus? Cleveland? Toledo? Cincinnati?

I'll wait for your answer.
