What I always hear: “We can’t afford to pay our workers more than $15 an hour.”

Government funding bill includes ban on hemp products.
Part of the legislation that ended the federal government shutdown could also mean the demise of the hemp industry. News4 spoke with a Maryland hemp farmer about the potential impact. www.nbcwashington.com/video/news/g...

agreeing to make a terrible deal while your main opponent is quite literally being boo'd on live tv by an entire stadium of people is the kind of political instinct you'd normally only find in a 3 week old dead goldfish

thank god our IL governor appointed a commission that is documenting all these atrocities so every evil, souless, callous human being responsible for these actions will one day be brought to justice
In a chaotic kidnapping raid yesterday, ICE in Chicago’s Little Village neighborhood shot a chemical munition into a family’s moving car. The shrapnel from the pepper ball/spray hit a baby. (11/8/2025)

It's estimated that there is salmonella in one out of every 27 packages of Chicken.
The Federal government has stopped investigating salmonella because the largest Chicken manufacturing plants gave huge donations to trumps election.
