Hello!?? Anybody home??
This is the new CBO report on the effects of Republicans’ tax bill — it shows that the bill will make the poor poorer and the rich richer.
This is the class war in legislative form.

@rokhanna.bsky.social maybe if Pennsylvania and Ohio chipped in on a $400m private jet? Gold trim package would seal the deal.
Khanna: "I appreciate that he's trying to get a deal with Iran. I don't like the fact that the biggest AI center, research center, is going to be in Dubai. I mean, what happened to America first? Why don't we put that center in Pennsylvania or in Ohio?"

This project in Serbia, slated to be built as a result of concession by gov of Serbia, is one of at least four Trump projects that involve foreign governments: Oman, United Arab Emirates & Qatar also. A US commander in chief as he and family are profit-seeking foreign government deal makers

Does getting Marmoush in the January window mean City aren’t as attractive to Wirtz this Summer? Is Wirtz looking for a totally new experience- with a new manager? A bigger challenge. Is he a sound lad? Does all that necessarily land him at Anfield? ‘corse it does. #champions #Letusgo #lfc #mcfc

Obviously
The obvious has become elusive. State that shit often.
Not to state the obvious, but none of them were sent to a terrorist prison in El Salvador. They all had lawyers, indictment by grand jury, a trial or a guilty plea where a judge ensured it was knowing & voluntary & access to an appeals process. In other words, all the hallmarks of due process.

I’ve not watched every BBC piece on the passing of the Pope but the one I did see completely left out the part about him recognising Palestine.
It’s not news if you only report the bits you like.

Senator Van Hollen’s commitment to the Abrego Garcia case isn’t performative. Wearing an overnight maxi pad on your ear after an “assassination attempt” is performative.

Did you know? The word “trumpery” appeared in the 15th century with the meanings “deceit” or “fraud”. 100 years later, it was being applied to objects of little or no value. Then in the 1900’s, it came to mean “showy but worthless”. — Today, it is equated with “fascist shit”.

I got laid off today, with the rest of 18F.
18F was an elite federal software shop. We made gov't websites work better, more efficiently for the American people. We saved taxpayers from getting screwed over by contractors. And were fired for it.
We made this website to tell our story:

Just an FYI: Medicaid fraud is rarely perpetrated by beneficiaries. The fraudsters are almost always the doctors and CEO's that administer Medicaid. For example: when a doctor charges the government $600 for an $8 breast pump and pockets the cash and the third party administrator takes a cut.
