Because it’s not getting reported on enough:
Muslim fruit shop owner Ahmed al Ahmed, father of two, was the hero who bravely tackled one of the Bondi Beach shooters and took away his gun.
He saved lives during a major terror attack. Say his name, and honor the lives of the victims of the shooters

Yesterday, Spc Sarah Becstrom was laid to rest in West Virginia at a VA National Cemetery.
Surprisingly none of the major major news media mention it. No flags were lower to half staff.
Well the Convicted FElon keeps the news focus on him.

Trump’s remarks about Somalis being “garbage” reflects the bigoted logic of an administration whose policies are designed to maintain an aristocracy of race and class www.theatlantic.com/ideas/2025/1...
Why Doesn’t Trump Pay a Political Price for His Racism?

Five corporations control 90% of the US media market.
Airlines merged from 12 major carriers in 1980 to 4 today.
Four giants control 80% of meat processing.
The evidence of corporate consolidation is everywhere.
It means more power for them and less freedom for you.

Netflix's $83 billion takeover of Warner Bros Discovery would mean more corporate consolidation.
Netflix, by far the #1 streamer, would take over HBO Max, the #3 streaming service.
This giant merger could violate antitrust law and hurt consumers.

I just find it hilarious that his whole cabinet is sloberring praise all over him with ridiculous hyperbole and he is falling asleep while they're doing it.
You couldn't write comedy better than this. It's better than VEEP.

JUST IN: Mike Johnson plans to swear in Rep.-elect Matt Van Epps on Thursday — less than two days after he won the TN-07 special election.
As a reminder, it took Johnson 50 days to swear in Democratic Rep. Adelita Grijalva.

With the emails suggesting how much leverage Epstein had over rump, it increases the potential that rump’s mafia might have helped Epstein to his end, doesn’t it?

This corrupted, neoliberal idea of government…
Swarming with lobbyists & drowning in corporate money.
Serving shareholder profit instead of people & planet.
It’s a cancer that belongs to the bin fire of history.
And more & more people are waking up to this.

Democrats were overwhelmingly united on their shutdown demands.
Americans understood that Trump and Republicans were to blame.
Voters made it known last Tuesday that they'll elect leaders who stand up to Trump.
Democrats held the cards — and folded for no reason.

Why are you blaming the slave for eventually choosing morning whippings to evening whippings? THEY HAD ZERO SAY ALL ALONG. The messaging was bad from the start, but TRUMP WENT TO COURT TO STOP KIDS FROM EATING!! One side wants kids to starve and people to be poor and sick and one side doesn't.

Nancy Pelosi changed the course of American history. The first woman Speaker: fearless, unbreakable, and always fighting for California families.
She led with courage when it mattered most and proved that strength and compassion can go hand in hand. Thank you, Madam Speaker!
