The fact a *single* Amazon full-time employee requires SNAP benefits should be a crime. The fact Amazon is the largest employer of SNAP recipients is a disgrace. Jeff Bezos shouldnt be that rich; he should be in jail.

I haven’t seen anyone talk about how Jane Doe - an Epstein survivor - just sued the Bank of New York Mellon for funding Epstein and failing to file a Suspicious Activity Report. A Mellon heir is the one who gave $130M to pay the troops. Seems bribey to me.

Over the last 20 years, looking at all vaccines administered domestically, there have been 9,933 actual vaccine injuries out of roughly 6.5 billion vaccines administered. That’s just 0.015 percent of all vaccines that result in injuries over 20 years. An estimate 4.2 million lives have been saved.

When we pulled out of Afghanistan, a very messy action because of how Trump set it up for Biden, there was a lot of yelling about us leaving behind those who helped us. Now, the ones we did get out have lost their protection? Where’s the yelling over that?

- Strictly and maliciously enforce ADA requirements, vaccine availability mandates, WHATEVER.

I'm bone fucking tred of negative chaos being the only chaos out here. Get right with figuring out how to make a kind of chaos that can actually goddam help people.
- Religious exception rulings apply only to the plaintiffs.

- Environmental regulations continue to be enforced despite rulings against them (just not against plaintiffs).

- and on and on.

The left has to use this decision, not just criticize it.

It'll be chaos, but that's what the Justices get.

Every blue state should be calling emergency sessions to set up systems of actual authority and mutual aid in an effort to protect their citizens and themselves from the coming war between the federal government and democratically held states.
At this point, Newsom should be calling an emergency session of the legislature and considering some very uncomfortable options

What’s left to teach? SCOTUS told corporations they could buy elections and told the president he could commit crimes with no worries.
John Roberts, who has abdicated the Supreme Court's role in government and through his decisions, has facilitated the deforming of the government's structure and the debilitation of public education, would like to blame the teachers, thank you very much.

As of today, it is cheaper to import a fully-built computer than it is to import the parts and build it in the U.S.

First the rumour was a 20% budget cut. Then, 50%. Now the president's NASA budget is out and it's a 68% cut to astrophysics ($1.5B to $487M).

Even if this gets reversed in four years, we will *never* recover the missions, partners, people who will be gone.
