I couldn't understand why the FBI was investigating Lindsey Graham's death—in the absence of any suspicious toxicology report in the autopsy—until I realized it gave Trump and his lawyer Kash Patel an excuse to enter Graham's house and remove potentially incriminating documents

@nbcsandiego Americans don’t yet grasp that all the “lazy federal bureaucrats” who used to quietly and very efficiently keep our food safe, and magically solve disease outbreaks like this have been fired.

It’s going to be a lot longer than a week.

For the record: cops aren't supposed to kill guilty people either.

Amazon Prime costs $139/year.

Most members use 2 features: free shipping and Prime Video.

That's a $139 subscription doing the job of a $5.99 delivery fee.

J.P. Morgan estimates the actual value of Prime benefits at approximately $1,430/year more
than 10x the membership cost. But most of that value sits unclaimed behind tabs, menus,
and pages 200 million members have never opened.

And 4 of those benefits expire monthly. If you don't claim them by the end of the month,
they're gone. Amazon resets the clock. You paid for them. You lost them.

Amazon is counting on you not knowing.

Here are the 12 Prime benefits most members have never activated including the 4 that
vanish every 30 days 🧵

@Mollyploofkins Seems remiss with so many Senators reporting to be texting with McConnell.

There are 23 current members of Congress age 80 and older.

Unbelievably, 9 of those are seeking reelection in November.

Here are the octogenarians seeking reelection, yet again:

-Jim Risch (D), 83, 17 years in Congress;
-Maxine Waters (D), 87, 35 years in Congress;
-Hal Rogers (R), 88, 45 years in Congress;
-Jim Clyburn (D), 85, 33 years in Congress;
-John Carter (R), 84, 23 years in Congress;
-Virginia Foxx (R), 83, 21 years in Congress;
-Doris Matsui (D), 82, 21 years in Congress;
-Rosa DeLauro (D), 83, 35 years in Congress;
-Jim Baird (R), 80, 7 years in Congress;

Why are taxpayers footing the bill for an elite nursing home?

We need term limits NOW.

U.S. Sen. Tommy Tuberville and Rep. Barry Moore praised progress on a major infrastructure and bridge project in Mobile this week — even though they previously voted against crucial funding for the effort.

Believing that billionaires and trillionaires are fighting for the working class requires an almost comical level of delusion.

Lorenzo Salgado Araujo called Houston home for 35 years. On Tuesday, an ICE agent shot and killed him. His family learned of his death from a video before anyone bothered to knock on their door.

New York City stands with the Salgado family in demanding a full, independent investigation and real accountability. To the Salgado family and any immigrant family in this city living in fear: we grieve with you and we will continue to stand beside you in the pursuit of justice.

Abolish ICE.

You don’t find it weird that not a single billionaire wants to end world poverty? Doesn’t it strike you as bizarre that no one with that kind of wealth wants to be the hero who actually solves the world’s biggest problems when they literally could? Isn’t that suspicious?

If this changed how you use Netflix tonight, one ask:

Repost the first post. 260 million Netflix subscribers are scrolling right now saying "there's nothing to watch." There is. It's just hidden behind a 4-digit code.

It’s craży how debt is totally forgivable when it's tied to a failed business or a hedge fund. But the moment it's for school or a hospital bill suddenly it says something about your character.

Frankly, I think going back to the pre-Reagan tax rates on the top 5% and using the money to create a national health service like every other democracy sounds like a pretty good idea.

Also European style vacation days.
