Trump wants to: Extend his tax cuts — which have made billionaires $2 trillion richer Cut Social Security — which working people pay into for a lifetime Would you like to keep your retirement money? Or would you like to gift it to billionaires? That is your choice in 2024.

Some advice after 25 years of work in Egypt/living in AL: 1) Liquid IV is best electrolyte/salt hydration drink (or Pedialyte) 2)If overheated, cool shower, then colder bath (slow temp decrease) 3) Freeze bottles of water. Put between legs (crotch)+ under armpits+ at neck. Will cool blood rapidly
Check on your people. Heat waves aren’t generally regarded as the most deadly of natural disasters but they often are.

Trump's now pretending to take the side of tipped workers, but his Labor Dept changed a rule to make it easier for bosses to pocket workers' tips. This cost tipped workers an estimated $700 million a year in wages.

Median CEO pay at major corporations jumped 13% last year. Much of the increase was due to stock performance. Just so happens that in 2023 corporations spent ~$800 BILLION on stock buybacks, which artificially pump up share prices. Translation: CEOs are goosing their own pay.

Banning medical debt from credit reports. Cracking down on junk fees. Banning non-competes. Capping credit card fees. Negotiating drug prices. Expanding OT pay. These Biden policies don't make headlines, but this is what it looks like when government works for the people.

Undercover activist Laura Windsor strikes again, this time pretending to be a conservative at a Supreme Court Historical Society event and capturing surreptitious, and quite candid and damning, statements from Justice Alito and his wife, Martha-Ann. My write up in the replies.

Don't worry kids, it's just an awkward coincidence that major news outlets like @washingtonpost.com and @thedailybeast.bsky.social are replacing their top editors with right-wing propagandists before the most fraught election in American history.
NEW: Daily Beast editor in chief Tracy Connor is stepping down, according to a staff memo from CEO Ben Sherwood. Hugh Dougherty, formerly of NYPost, Daily Mail, Telegraph, will be the new executive editor. (via Max Tani, Semafor)

Trump is now whining that he couldn't testify because he then he would've been questioned about being a "bad boy." Yes. Part of his defense was that he never had sex with Stormy Daniels. So the prosecution could've then crossed him regarding his long history of philandering.

Remember that Juror #2 said they got most of their news from Truth Social and Twitter/X. Even that person voted to convict on all counts.

People will point to something and say “see voting doesn’t do anything” and it’s literally just the consequences of Republicans winning elections
