“I love the smiles, the dives, the slides and the cellies that conjure visions of that curly-haired dynamo, my kid.”
@Cubs CF Pete Crow-Armstrong’s parents leave their son voicemails celebrating his MVP award. 🥲💙
Young men don’t want your Nazi bullshit because they have gay and trans friends, their favorite coworker is a 50 year old Mexican guy, and they noticed that you’re scaring the hoes
Listen Up Dems. Congrats on your big wins, but today the work starts. Here's the plan. Line up 5 simple bills in Congress. One pagers, easy to understand. No pork, just a clearly worded solution. Minimum wage. Health Care assistance. Child Care. Housing. Corruption reform.
New #Bears DT Jeffery Simmons’ rank among defensive tackles this year:
• 98.9 PFN DT Impact grade (1st)
• 4.0 sacks (T-1st)
• 38 tackles (1st)
• 17.4 disruption EPA (1st)
The best DT in the entire NFL comes to Chicago.
#Mizzou is the 9th winningest Power 4 team in the country since 2023.
MU has the 4th most conference wins in the SEC since 2023.
Missouri and Georgia are the only P4 teams in the country without a loss to an unranked opponent since 2023.
Put some respect on Eli Drinkwitz's name.
The Bears' 59 points are tied for the 2nd most in a season opener in NFL history! Only the 1973 Falcons (62) scored more.
The Bears had 6 rush TD, tied for their most in a regular season game in franchise history. The last time they did it was in 1941!
A top 5 reason to implement a wealth tax is related to this point below about China eating our lunch. If our super rich class was leading the world when it came to frontier industries, that would be a strong case to let them keep cooking.
Instead, their focus the past 15-20 years has been on building monopolies and moats, propping it up with ever-more-absurd financial engineering, media consolidation with the aim of stoking culture war and blunting criticism of Israel, which for some odd reason is supposed to be a national priority for us — all while falling behind China on robotics, batteries, EVs, and so on. We’re barely winning on AI if at all. They cheered as Trump effectively repealed the IRA, the biggest investment in new energy production in decades, and are now crying that there isn’t enough energy production for their AI.
If our billionaires were winners, we might consider defending them.
But our billionaires are losers, in several senses of the word, and they embarrass us on the international stage. A wealth tax will take them down a few pegs and hopefully let some winners rise up. We no longer have a meritocracy so it’s time to strip the participation medals from these monopolists.
So no, a wealth tax is not punishing you for your success. It’s punishing you for failure. Don’t like it? Stop losing.
Trump says Democrats forgot to rig the election in 2016, successfully rigged it while *he* was president in 2020, then forgot how to rig it again in 2024. So the only election Democrats supposedly stole was the one he himself controlled.
You have to be a special kind of stupid to believe this bullshit.
Candidate Trump: "I will end inflation on Day One."
President Trump today: "I love the inflation."
You know who doesn't love inflation, Mr. President? Working families struggling to afford gas, groceries and other necessities because of your disastrous actions.
