I can’t believe they thought “Our mod team is Amelia Bedelia and we support them 200%” was an acceptable and reasonable explanation

Private equity firm Sycamore Partners bought Walgreens.

Now Walgreens has stopped giving most workers paid vacation on Thanksgiving, Christmas and other major holidays.

Private equity takeovers are a disaster for workers, and customers.

Whether it’s centrist pundits feeling politically homeless or then-Congressman Matt Gaetz having sex with a homeless 17 year-old, homelessness is having a moment.

Last week's elections showed the power of women voters, who delivered decisive wins for Democrats across the nation. Now, there's a surge in calls to repeal women's right to vote. Could this radical Christian nationalist agenda splinter the MAGA movement or pull them further toward extremism?

Every piece of data that comes out shows Trump’s policies are hurting our economy and killing jobs. With him in charge, Americans are paying more, losing health care, and getting laid off. That’s his legacy.

I'm kind of baffled how the "moderates" have apparently all decided to turn against climate policy at once, just as China reaches green electrostate liftoff mode. I thought these people were all about National Greatness and making Hard Choices

Glad BlueSky did this. When I saw Patton Oswalt saying Megyn Kelly should be fed into a woodchipper feet first for defending raping children based on what age she thinks is okay, I thought, "yes, comedian Patton Oswalt is going to, in real life, feed Megyn Kelly into a woodchipper feet first."
patton oswalt has been suspended from bluesky for saying that megyn kelly should be fed to a woodchipper for justifying the sexual abuse of minors

This young girl was not “left vulnerable to exploitation.” She was in fact sexually exploited.
A teenager in Florida with a homeless parent wanted money for braces and ended up having sex for money with powerful men, setting off a chain of events that would have a dramatic impact on her life and help upend the political career of Representative Matt Gaetz. nyti.ms/49PSkL9

Maybe someone should tell Megyn R. Kelly 15 is not “barely legal”, it’s actually quite illegal?

13. And you should be EXTREMELY suspicious of any politician or reporter who calls this "lawfare" or suggests that there is any justifiable basis for their pique. They are tight with bad people and they got uncomfortable when we asked "how tight?" Then they asked for money. That's it. /fin

Any other time, any other President, and "the dude was in a global conspiracy to fuck them kids" would have been 24/7 coverage. Even Dubya.

I remember the fucking Lewinsky coverage. Our media have become craven hacks carrying water for rich pedophiles and I feel insane typing that but there it is.

Marco Rubio says U.S. visas can be denied for obesity, diabetes, cancer, and even retirement age because those people might “drain taxpayer resources. Amazing how that concern disappears when they’re blowing millions on luxury travel, parties, and renovations.
