Believe in equality and a fair go for everyone. We have all the resources we need, we just need to keep highlighting the rapacious greed of the billionaires who are hoarding the planet’s wealth. This is the problem we need to solve together!

Buried in the Big Beautiful Bill were changes to food assistance that demanded “any future change be cost-neutral. Translation: no more benefit increases, even if food prices skyrocket.”
The result was “institutionalized hunger.”

🔌💡 Really disturbing article – especially for those of us who think nuclear can be done safely & well, and could play an important role in a carbon-free grid. Politically-connected, regulator-undermining, safety-shortcutting development makes the whole industry untrustworthy, & could bring disaster.

This ghastly woman is like a parody of a tone deaf grifter yet she's actually enriching herself with taxpayer $$$
Job agency companies and bosses continue to make an extraordinary amount of money from a Mutual Obligations system we now know operates unlawfully
Here's the latest example of what they're doing with that public funding. Enjoy Sarina at the Louis Vuitton resort in St Tropez 👇

I knew Fox News was theater. I just didn't realize it was a repertory theater that recycles actors for different roles.
You'd think a company that had to pay $787,000,000 for deceiving its viewers would be a little more careful about blatantly continuing the practice.
