This is Ohio’s democracy in action.

On Aug. 9, thousands lined 8 miles of High Street, hand in hand — for Medicaid, immigrants, truth, and justice. Against corruption, cruelty, and lies.

Ohio doesn’t sit down.
We link up.
We fight back.
And we’re just getting started.

USAID web pages mentioning Musk’s company have suddenly vanished from the agency’s website.
From Watergate to Elon-gate
Musk is trying to shut down the agency probing his company’s equipment — and now workers are pushing back with a longstanding privacy law.

Oh, how the corporate minions capitulate and submit-- but Costco's execs and shareholders are standing up for our core American values of #DEI.

Costco shows Trump What a Real Mandate Is
I guess I’ll just have throw myself on Donald Trump’s mercy, for I confess that I am a repeat violator of MAGA’s high crime of DEI-ism.

This morning Uganda announced a new Ebola outbreak.

The last time there was an Ebola outbreak in Uganda, the CDC worked with the WHO on helping end it.

But now, the CDC can’t even talk to the WHO.

I repeat, again and again, this is pure stupidity that will only hurt us.

Last week, Trump's FTC Chair Andrew Ferguson shut down requests for public comment on corporate surveillance pricing and other exploitative tactics.

So much for all that economic populism, huh?

As the 5th anniversary of Brexit approaches, here's the chillingly methodical moment when the UK flag was removed from the EU Council building in Brussels. Since then, not a single Brexit promise has come true.
