Noem attempted to procure two new luxury jets to support travel - including personal travel - for herself and the deputy secretary "at a cost to the taxpayer of $200m."

They're living like royalty with the help of Congress, while the people of the United States are struggling for food and shelter.

Remember when Donald Trump said there would be people standing in bread lines trying to get food if Kamala Harris won?

People are standing in line for food in Cleveland because of Donald Trump.

Thank you to Senator Ron Wyden for letting us know the MAGA Senate Republicans are trying to slide a nationwide abortion ban into the shutdown negotiations.

Hell no! They want to control every part of women’s lives and we aren’t having it.

When Genesis found out she was pregnant, she asked her managers at Amazon for a chair to sit on and extra breaks. She wound up with cut hours and no paid maternity leave—and homeless. Now, she and other pregnant Amazon warehouse workers are speaking up. My latest:

This is happening right now, to a friend of mine in Chicago. This is a peaceful area, with no previous unrest or crime problem. Just people trying to live their lives. My heart hurts. They're having conversations no family should have to have.

The 400 richest Americans are now worth a record $6.6 trillion.

The entire bottom 50% of America is worth just $4.2 trillion.

YES, I think about this insight from Marilyn Frye all the time. When I first read this essay in college, it was like a lightning storm in my brain in the best way. So many questions were answered.
Yup. I love this piece on how so many straight men are actually homoerotic and only truly love other men, they just unfortunately aren’t sexually attracted to them:
