According to a new study, members of Congressional leadership perform 47% better in stock market trades than their rank-and-file peers, thanks to access to nonpublic information.

The USPS posting a NINE BILLION DOLLAR LOSS!!! sounds terrible. Certainly worse than if you said "USPS costs thirty dollars per person per year" even though that means the same thing and more accurately describes a government service

What does it say about this country that that the kind of open, rank bigotry Trump administration officials regularly express towards black immigrants apparently has no social cost because of the number of Americans who quietly agree or don't care.

I hope someone draws this wonderful story about Tom Stoppard's Arcadia and the power of the arts to help us see things differently, to the attention of our Education Secretary. Do read it, it will lift your spirits.

Francesca Albanese speaks for humanity when she speaks for Palestinians 🇵🇸:

‘It’s not 75 years since the Nakba. It’s 75 years OF the Nakba.’

It’s ethnic cleansing.
It’s genocide.

It's weird to not only have lived through an information revolution but also now living through its undoing, all within less than a generation.

I invite any MLB owner to open their books and show the public how much money their teams lost in 2025. They won’t, because it’s a lie.

No team has EVER sold for less than it was purchased for. Do not fall for crocodile tears from billionaires who are already getting a Trump tax cut!
