“I was 14… I was 16… this was me when I met Epstein… there are thousands of us… time to let the secrets out of the shadows”

Powerful ad from survivors ahead of a vote to tell us where each House rep stands on protecting kids vs protecting pedophiles.

Every sector of the 🇺🇸 economy & polity is exactly like this. Ronald Reagan & his lazy, selfish, juvenile talking point & his acolytes’ worn copies of Atlas Shrugged have done untold damage to our politics & society.
So it turns out... the US air travel system was incredibly, deeply dependent on federal funding to just run day-to-day all this time, to the benefit of private airline shareholders, when everyone thinks that state-run trains are leeching off the government. Weird!

This FT account of pure thuggishness of Trump representatives posing as diplomats has not appeared in US media anywhere, but is being widely circulated and reported in media in Europe, the UK and the Asia Pacific area. Be sure to read it all.

The average US taxpayer spends $36 a year on SNAP

You know what they spend on corporate subsidies? $670

Poor and disabled people who need food are not the problem

If you’re angry about “your money” feeding people but not angry it’s giving tax cuts to the wealthy?

You’re doing their dirty work.

I prefer to trust the good folks at ProPublica, who refuse to act merely as stenographers for people with agendas, and instead have a track record of evidence-based investigative reporting

Cost to fund SNAP and keep 42 million people from starving:

$100 billion

Cost of lost revenue due to tax cuts for the richest Americans in the top 1%:

$100 billion

One is decried as "welfare." One is not.

Why?

Trey Yesevage started this season at Single-A Dunedin. He didn't make it to AAA with the Buffalo Bisons until August 11. He just struck out 12 in 7 innings in the World @$#%@* Series.

Baseball, man. Incredible stuff.

Also, he was born in Pottstown, PA. Always a Pottstown/🇨🇦 angle 😂

Shout it from the rooftops
🔥 Finally an EU leader says it out loud:

“We have been incredibly naive in entrusting our democratic space to social networks that are controlled either by large American entrepreneurs or large Chinese companies, whose interests are not at all the survival or proper functioning of our democracies.”
President Macron: “Europeans, let's wake up!

We have been incredibly naive in entrusting our democratic space to social networks.”

Hi, I'm the ProPublica reporter who's been tracking an unusual stat: U.S. citizens grabbed by immigration agents.

I did it because the government isn’t.

This is what I found.

If you live in:

South Dakota
Louisiana
West Virginia
Wyoming
Tennessee
Mississippi
Alaska

Call your right wing Senator and ask them why they're pushing to increase their constituents healthcare prices so much.
If you live in these states, your ACA premiums are about to jump:

SD - Up 235%
LA - Up 150%
WV - Up 387%
WY - Up 382%
TN - Up 320%
MS - Up 314%
AK - Up 346%

Republicans are fighting to make sure this happens to their own constituents.

Charlie Kirk trafficked in conspiracy theories.

In death, he became the main character in the ultimate one, spun by the White House.

It’s a tactic I imagine Kirk would have approved of.

Charlie Kirk understood the value of a good conspiracy theory. In death, he became one.
The killing of the conservative activist unleashed a flood of conspiracy theories from the left and the right — some absurd, others politically expedient.

The fact that Matthew Dowd lost his job for pointing out Charlie Kirk’s hate speech, while Brian Kilmeade openly suggests we should euthanize the homeless and there is zero outrage, shows exactly what is terribly wrong with today’s political mainstream media.
