Flying PHX to DCA. The pilot announced before takeoff: “The rules are the rules. I don’t care if you wear a blue hat or red hat, wear your mask and be nice to the flight attendants.” 👏🏼 👏🏼 👏🏼 @FlyingWithSara@AmericanAir
@GoYardGoats@Jeopardy@wads_atheneum Ken Jennings is a scab that continued to host during the WGA strike using old material when others like Mayim Bialik stood with labor.
At heart of cases like Trump v. Slaughter is the assumption that today’s agencies like the NLRB are vastly more powerful than the FTC which existed in 1935, the year of Humphrey’s Executor. But as any student of labor law or labor history knows, the NLRB has never been weaker.
Private equity drove a nursing home chain into the ground.

Hayes: Every provision in this program is cruel and they know it. That's why none of them spoke on it in committee. That's why they have nothing to say. That's why they have no response. That's why they don't hold town halls. That's why they don't answer questions. All they do is tweet, repeat, and hide in the back until they vote yes
