Amazon announced 14,000 layoffs. Its CEO made over $40M last year.

UPS announced 48,000 layoffs. Its CEO made over $24M last year.

Intel announced 20,000 layoffs. Its new CEO's pay package is valued at nearly $69M.

This is what I mean when I say the system is rigged.

From Claude's answers, I realized that tariffs can strategically wreck some companies & give exemptions to select industries. He chooses who goes bankrupt.

Then they owe loyalty to him & will obey ideological pressures.

This btw is the most anti-Libertarian one can get. The GOP should be fuming.

Ask him why so many air traffic controllers are retiring at once. Ask him if it has anything to do with Reagan firing 11K union strikers in 1981 and having to replace them all at once. Ask him how the mass firings this year will impact us the same way 40 years from now. Ask him, Jake.

BREAKING: Ninth Circuit panel, on a 2-1 vote, allows Trump to deploy National Guard troops in Portland during litigation. Both judges siding with Trump were appointed by Trump in his first term.

Background at Law Dork: www.lawdork.com/p/the-trials...
Before: Susan P. Graber, Ryan D. Nelson, and Bridget S. Bade, Circuit Judges. Concurrence by Judge R. Nelson; Dissent by Judge Graber. PER CURIAM: Defendants-Appellants, President Donald J. Trump, Secretary of Defense Peter Hegseth, and Secretary of Homeland Security Kristi Noem, in their official capacities, the Department of Defense (DoD), and the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) (collectively, Defendants), seek an emergency stay of the district court’s October 4, 2025 temporary restraining order (TRO) enjoining the President’s Case: 25-6268, 10/20/2025, DktEntry: 61.1, Page 2 of 93 order to federalize 200 members of the Oregon National Guard for 60 days to protect federal personnel and property at the Lindquist Building, an Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) facility in Portland, Oregon. After considering the record at this preliminary stage, we conclude that it is likely that the President lawfully exercised his statutory authority under 10 U.S.C. § 12406(3), which authorizes the federalization of the National Guard when “the President is unable with the regular forces to execute the laws of the United States.” The evidence the President relied on reflects a “colorable assessment of the facts and law within a ‘range of honest judgment.’” Newsom v. Trump, 141 F.4th 1032, 1051 (9th Cir. 2025) (per curiam) (quoting Sterling v. Constantin, 287 U.S. 378, 399 (1932)). We thus conclude that Defendants are likely to succeed on the merits of their appeal, and that the other stay factors weigh in their favor. We grant Defendants’ motion for a stay pending appeal.

“I want you to understand what it is like to live in Chicago during this time.”

aphyr.com/posts/397-i-...
I want you to understand what it is like to live in Chicago during this time. Every day my phone buzzes. It is a neighborhood group: four people were kidnapped at the corner drugstore. A friend a mile away sends a Slack message: she was at the scene when masked men assaulted and abducted two people on the street. A plumber working on my pipes is distraught, and I find out that two of his employees were kidnapped that morning. A week later it happens again. An email arrives. Agents with guns have chased a teacher into the school where she works. They did not have a warrant. They dragged her away, ignoring her and her colleagues’ pleas to show proof of her documentation. That evening I stand a few feet from the parents of Rayito de Sol and listen to them describe, with anguish, how good Ms. Diana was to their children. What it is like to have strangers with guns traumatize your kids. For a teacher to hide a three-year-old child for fear they might be killed. How their relatives will no longer leave the house. I hear the pain and fury in their voices, and I wonder who will be next. Understand what it is to pray in Chicago.

I don't believe a thing the TRUMPERS at @axios.com say. @vandehei.bsky.social and the pot of stew go to Joe Scarborough to do their GOP "no monsters" spin but we know the truth.

Regular reminder that Axios stories saying Dems are about to cave are likely sourced from GOP staffers trying to make it happen.
Doesn't mean it definitely won't happen. But it's like those NYT stories that Harvard is considering caving (they haven't). The anonymous source was trying to manifest it.

Rafael Veraza said a news conference organized by the coalition Sunday afternoon that he and his wife were on the way to do their weekly grocery shopping at Sam’s Club when they heard sirens and the whistles that have become the common signal of the presence of federal agents in the area. When they realized that the big box store was at the center of the raid led by Bovino, they decided to turn around and leave the area, Veraza said. As they were attempted to leave the area, Veraza said federal agents pepper sprayed his car without warning. Since his window was rolled down, Veraza said he was hit straight in the face with the chemical agent. “We’re not protestors,” Veraza said. "We were not even attacking them.” Veraza said he did not realize that his daughter was also exposed until his wife told him to pull over. Veraza said his daughter couldn’t open her eyes and appeared to be struggling to breathe. The whole family went to get medical treatment, he said. “We were trying to leave," Veraza said. “I was minding my own business."
