The funny thing about that show? Not a word of it was in English, but it was one of the more patriotic halftime shows I’ve seen.

The US deficit is approaching ww2 levels as a percent of GDP.

Because of the “Big Beautiful Bill” that GOP voted for.

We are spending more on INTEREST than on anything else including the military.

This is a time bomb, and the GOP is responsible. Fiscal conservative my ass

Lotta fat old guys telling Olympic athletes that they should be sent home. No one is stopping you from getting off your couches and training to take their spots. Until then, enjoy watching them exercise their free speech rights. Go team USA.

One lesson from the Epstein–Mandelson affair is that we need to stop routinely rehabilitating political careers after serious scandals.

When politicians knowingly engage in grave ethical wrongdoing, that should permanently end their political careers. Being "talented" should not override that.

The Epstein case reflects systemic issues within the American elite. Despite clear evidence, the perpetrators will probably never be charged. They engage in exploitative practices without consequence.The American oligarchy has amassed its wealth through parasitism

This is the stupidest thing I've ever heard
Dr Oz: "If we could get the average American to start working a year earlier, right out of high school, or a year later -- not retire -- or work better during their lifetime because they're healthy, it would generate about $3 trillion to the US economy. That would more than remove the debt."

Donald Trump and Pam Bondi once again violated the Constitution.

They’re wasting your tax dollars arresting journalists — while protecting pedophiles and the murderers of Renée Good and Alex Pretti.

That’s authoritarian bullshit.

Journalism is not a crime.

The Justice Department should investigate the federal agents who killed US citizens in broad daylight, not arrest reporters like Don Lemon. He should be released.

It's a spine-chilling assault on press freedom and threatens the public's right to know.

I channeled my anger, frustration, and sadness about the state murders of #reneegood and #alexpretti this weekend and started working on Project Witness. There are so many videos recorded by protestors, legal observers, released bodycam footage. But it's difficult to get them all together.
