Elon Musk is about to become the first trillionaire.
The reason poverty exists in the wealthiest country on earth isn't because we can't feed the poor — it's because we can't satisfy the rich.
We should tax trillionaires out of existence.

I don't have any illusions about the United States military, what it does, or how many times this has happened before
but the fact that they sat there for 41 minutes, watched two scared, human beings desperately struggling to stay alive, and then murdered them has fucked me up so deeply

Department of Defense Law of War Manual, Sec. 18.3.2.1 states the "requirement" to refuse illegal orders.
What’s its key example? Wait for it . . . It’s "orders to fire upon the shipwrecked."

If Epstein’s claims are true, Trump lied about his involvement & knew about the abuse

Is the American Gestapo's message that it's better to bleed out on a horse than on the ground?
And note to the semi-literates in the Trump administration: It's "lay" when you place something, "lie" when you recline on your own.

Trump Org’s income in the first half of 2024 was $51 million.
In the first half of 2025 it rose to $864 million.
A massive percentage came from foreigners.
It should be the biggest scandal in the history of American politics.

Inside the Trump family’s global crypto cash machine
The U.S. president’s family raked in more than $800 million from sales of crypto assets in the first half of 2025 alone, a Reuters examination found, on top of potentially billions more in unrealized “on paper” gains. Much of that cash came from foreign sources as Donald Trump's sons touted their business on an international investor roadshow.

A friend of mine was on Charlie Kirk's "watch list" of Black professors. She received so many death and rape threats that her university offered her a security detail for the walk to class.
This is Kirk's legacy.

The 400 richest Americans are now worth a record $6.6 trillion, after getting $1.2 trillion richer over the past year alone.
Meanwhile, the rest of the country is getting squeezed by tariffs and high prices for groceries, utilities, and health care.

I am so old that I remember when we had progressive tax rates, so richer people paid more than less wealthy people, and we called it “progressive taxation“ but NOBODY had a problem with rich people paying higher tax rates. It was COMMON SENSE.

Our tax code is rigged. It’s not fair that a billionaire can pay a lower tax rate than a public school teacher.
