Disney has hiked prices and laid off hundreds of workers this year.
Yet Disney paid its CEO $41B in 2024. It just reported a 36% increase in net profits for parks and streaming. And it plans to double stock buybacks next year.
Remember this as Disney turns to AI.

This is the new playbook:
Commit misconduct -> claim persecution -> sue the government -> cash out.
If this becomes normalized, every corrupt official will try to hit taxpayers with their legal bills. And yet somehow, almost no one is talking about it.

Well course he did.
It sets precedent for themselves after Trump’s DoJ (or the next right wing guy, if elections ever get held again) pulls bogus investigations into Democratic senators.
Only this wasn’t a bogus investigation. There was an insurrection. And warrants mean they have right to info.

As promised, here are the slides I shared with students to convince them to NOT use chatGPT and other artificial stupidity.
TL;DR? AI is evil, unsustainable and stupid, and I'd much rather they use their own brains, make their own mistakes, and actually learn something. 🪄

So just to be clear, major media, the “newspaper of record,” the DOJ, and administrations from both parties kept all of this from us. For years.
Let these people walk among us scot-free. Let Americans VOTE THESE PEOPLE INTO OFFICE.
And said nothing.
Burn it all to the ground.

My takeaway from every new Epstein revelation is that some powerful people victimized many powerless young women, many more knew, some actively enabled it--and we're still being told that MeToo and accountability for sexual violence have gone too far

Republicans demand tougher abortion restrictions to extend Obamacare funds
Democrats say that’s a nonstarter, arguing there are already limits on abortion access. The dispute could torpedo a deal, leading to higher health insurance premiums for millions.
