Can’t say why exactly, but the phrase “once again refused a pierogi” made me laugh out loud.

What if there were already some sort of contest where people were able to choose between them, I wonder how that would go

Odd, how South Park is covering Kristi Noem and her ICE hooligans more accurately than The New York Times.

In 2016, Ghislaine Maxwell falsely stated, under oath, that she was not aware that Jeffrey Epstein recruited underage girls for sex (you know, the ones she was actually recruiting on his behalf). She was charged with two counts of perjury for this.
Remind me why we give a shit what she says now?

After mass boycotts against Target for ending their diversity equity inclusion program in January, they’ve suffered 10 consecutive weeks of decline in foot traffic as well as significant loss in market value whilst Costco sees significant gains for keeping their DEI program.
Good.

If you are a Democratic member of Congress and you’re trading stock, you are part of the reason millions of voters believe the system isn’t built to help them.

The DNC should immediately ban dark money and corporate money from the party and every elected Democrat should publicly come out in support of it.
If not, they need to stop using the “oligarchy” terminology.
If you can’t rid yourselves of your own oligarchs, stop it.

A tricky thing about modern society is that no one has any idea when they don’t die.
Like, the number of lives saved by controlling air pollution in America is probably over 200,000 per year, but the number of people who think their life was saved by controlling air pollution is zero.

there have been three major economic collapses in my adult lifetime and guess which party has been in charge each time? it's almost like their policies don't work.

I spoke to a South Carolina woman today who is miscarrying - her fetus has no heartbeat - but the state's ban is preventing doctors from taking action.
She has to walk around with a dead fetus for another week so she can get a FOURTH ultrasound.
This is what bans do.

Good day to remember that a US President has no inherent power over tariffs whatsoever. It’s not like war powers or pardons. It’s entirely delegated by Congress to deal with emergencies. GOP Congress cld modify that law tonight and bring this to a screeching halt.

It's not a bad idea to go to the local Walmart or big box retailer and buy lots of consumables now. From toothpaste to soap, anything you can find storage space for, buy before they have to replenish inventory.
Even if it's made in the USA , they will jack up the price and blame it on tariffs.
