A new study suggests, nearly 50% of the Black-White mortality gap is linked to chronic stress from racism, trauma, and economic hardship. This confirms what we’ve long known: racism isn’t just a social issue. Over time, this injustice eats away at our health, our hope, and our lives.

Of course. It's now owned and controlled by the current regime.
This morning, I recorded a video on TikTok about why DHS’s arguments for the power to enter homes without judicial warrants in immigration cases are bunk.
Nine hours later, TikTok still says my video is “under review,” and can’t be shared.
Well, here’s a link:

It’s not “losing money” any more than air traffic controllers or public highways or street lights or fire departments are “losing money.” It is a government service. It’s not SUPPOSED to make money. It’s supposed to reliably deliver to anywhere in the US, even the unprofitable places.
The USPS faces a tight squeeze. With fewer people using the mail, it’s lost more and more money: $9 billion in the 12 months ending in September alone.

Credit is dumb. If I have debt on one of my cards, my score increases. It decreases when I pay it off. If I put debt on another card, my score decreases. Increases when I pay it off. The money I put towards my car loan hasn't moved the needle either way. And I overpay on the loan. Scammer activities

Data centers dominated 2025.
They (shakily) propped up the economy, they got exponentially bigger, and they provoked resistance across the country.
So we spent 2025 covering data centers, and the fight back, from the perspective of working people.

The people who named it "Tar-zhay" are the people you threw under the bus, you absolute fucking losers.
The chain unveiled its first-ever concept store in SoHo this week, adorned with stylish apparel, designer collaborations, and beauty products — all key areas that its incoming CEO hopes will revive its former "Tar-zhay" glory.

USPS is a service, not a business. By definition, it cannot "lose" money. It costs money to operate. Its responsibility is not to be a revenue stream, it's to deliver the mail. We don't call the defense budget a "trillion-dollar loss".
