Let’s give MAGA something they should support - a return to the 1950’s! More specifically, Eisenhower era income tax rates.
Tesla reported paying ZERO federal income tax on $5.7 billion of U.S. income in 2025.

Meanwhile, thanks to his new Tesla pay package, Elon Musk could stand to make $3 billion more per year than all 1.4 million elementary school teachers in the U.S. combined.

See the problem here?

Student in my home state, deliberately struck by car at a peaceful protest. My kid’s school had a walkout recently too, and I admit to being terrified someone would do this.

When will saner heads prevail?!

Effin head colds. Can’t breathe so take otc meds, then get so loopy I can’t do much of anything else. Seriously, there has to be a better way to stop sinuses from doing this to a person….

Can I profess my love for Granola.ai here? I find it amazing I can quickly ask, “wait, what did they just say” when my perimenopausal, ADHD brain tunes out temporarily. And it makes meeting followups so much easier!

Granola takes your raw meeting notes and makes them awesome. No awkward meeting bots - just beautiful notes for you and your team, every single time.

Public letter from the CEOs of Minnesota’s largest companies calling for “de-escalation”

Of course it’s vague PR-speak but at least it calls the murder “tragic”

Please don’t encourage randomly scanning potentially malicious QR codes.
I am introducing the Quick Recognition (QR) Act, which requires ICE and CBP officers to wear uniforms featuring QR codes. When scanned, the code would generate a digital ID displaying the officer’s name, badge number, and law enforcement agency.

ICE should be unmasked both physically and digitally.

It’s hard to try and do things like focus at work when jackbooted thugs are, with the full approval of the President, grabbing people off the street and out of their homes. At least these Minnesotans were successfully able to run ICE off this time.
