The Real Litmus Test for Democratic Presidential Candidates Supporting a wealth tax.

The underlying thing making democracy impossible is the vast fortunes of the extremely rich and any Democrat unwilling to support wealth taxes is not interested in addressing America’s biggest problem.

Let's not pretend this is anything other than the fact she featured herself, not Trump, in the ad campaign.

I have liked Matthews. The loss was even softened a little by being happy for him. But there's no excuse for today. He should be traded.

I hope this ends homework, essays... Anything other than class discussion and exams.

Counter to the trend, nothing shows you the very real limits of AI faster than trying to vibe code something complicated.

It was here in Europe where the ideas that planted the seeds of liberty that changed the world were born.  It was here in Europe where the world – which gave the world the rule of law, the universities, and the scientific revolution.  It was this continent that produced the genius of Mozart and Beethoven, of Dante and Shakespeare, of Michelangelo and Da Vinci, of the Beatles and the Rolling Stones.  And this is the place where the vaulted ceilings of the Sistine Chapel and the towering spires of the great cathedral in Cologne, they testify not just to the greatness of our past or to a faith in God that inspired these marvels.  They foreshadow the wonders that await us in our future.  But only if we are unapologetic in our heritage and proud of this common inheritance can we together begin the work of envisioning and shaping our economic and our political future.

Rubio's MSC speech is fascism at its most eloquent. When it's still trying to be "crypto-" and be invited to supper. It's textbook. I mean... www.state.gov/releases/off...

This is from Rubio's MSC speech. It's such a *ridiculous* frame. That American capitalists were the victims of neoliberal globalization vs. the perpetrators and beneficiaries. Fascists' alternating assertions of weakness and strength give you whiplash.

Private prisons raking in billions while they cut costs, feed them little, ignore health issues.

It’s good that people are learning that making people promise to be peaceful is pointless; I really wish folks’ kids didn’t get gassed though.

These pigs are here to inflict terror, they’re not playing by any rules. We told everyone.

My favorite posts from yesterday were where they were forming unions, launching mutual aid networks, spinning up online marketplaces, and advocating grind culture.

β€œWe condemn the Border Patrol’s killing of Alex Pretti and the violent surge of federal agents across our cities. The wanton brutality we’ve seen from ICE and CBP has removed any credibility that these actions are about immigration enforcement...

Note how the elite always try to route your power to the ballot box and only the ballot box.

Calling the Gestapo β€œthe Gestapo” is causing the Gestapo to act like the Gestapo.

All grocery delivery apps in New York City (including Instacart) must now pay workers at least $21.44/hr.

That number does not include tips.

Companies must also provide workers with annual increases adjusted for inflation.
