So let me get this straight: Donald Trump gets to fly around in a $400 million luxury jet while the rest of us have to worry about whether our plane will make it off the ground?

It’s strange to hear our government cite the English Court of Chancery as a reason why one judge shouldn’t be able to issue a nationwide injunction. America has no king, we fixed that a long time ago.

SLAVERY. Work for profit. I believe that the state should pay all her medical bills.
Reading the story about the woman in Georgia who is brain dead and on a vent but not allowed to die with dignity because she was 9 weeks pregnant when she was declared brain dead. Even in death, our bodies are not our own.

Trump explains 'groceries' to UAE president, calling it an old-fashioned term.
He rambles about food costs and egg prices during the meeting.
Trump has been obsessing over the word 'groceries' since October.
The explanation is unnecessary as 'groceries' is a common term.

I've watched the new SUPERMAN trailer five or six times now, and I have narrowed down my favorite moment to the normal civilian helping Superman up. I will not be taking any questions at this time.

Our allies for a century all hate us, but at least the rulers of Saudi Arabia and Qatar appreciate how easy it is to get what they want from our govt, and appear to enjoy our president’s willingness to trade US govt policy for personal enrichment. So we have some friends.

60% of American households can’t afford a minimal quality of life.
Meanwhile, the 19 richest households saw their wealth increase by $1 trillion in 2024 — the biggest one-year increase ever.
Our problem isn't a lack of resources.
Our problem is ever-expanding inequality.
