Dear Bill Maher, being a shitty person is not comedy.

Ok, let’s go to war to kill off the masses, take their abandoned homes & what little savings accounts they might have.””

At the same time, the government is gutting social programs like Medicaid, Medicare and food assistance while pushing military spending toward $1.5 trillion.
The resources taken from workers are being funneled into two things: the enrichment of billionaires and the expansion of imperialist war.
The war on Iran is unfolding alongside a wave of mass layoffs in the US. These are not separate crises. They are two sides of the same offensive by the ruling class against the working class.
For those who have forgotten the past 40 years:
Tax cuts for the rich
...don’t trickle down
Boosting military spending
...doesn’t bring peace
Slashing regulations
...doesn’t create jobs
Folks, we’ve seen this all before.
There's a wonderful PBS Space Time video with Matt O'Dowd that goes into more detail, with some lovely visuals, if you're interested in learning more.
As much as I want to see a ring glittering in the sky, I'm getting a little hung-up on the "near-miss asteroid" requirement to get there. 😬
The material was chondrite: ancient rock, so darker than the icy rings of Saturn, but it could have reflected sunlight at night like a perpetual twilight, blocked sunlight during the day.
It's formation corresponds to the coldest period in 500 million years, the "Hirnantian Ice Age".
This 2024 paper identified 21 asteroid impact craters scattered across the globe.
Their current locations don't show a pattern, but when we roll back the locations of the continents to the Ordovician, they all line up along the Earth's equator, exactly where ring debris would de-orbit.
Saturn Devouring His Son is a haunting masterpiece painted by Francisco Goya directly onto the walls of his homeQuinta del Sordo, between 1820 and 1823 as part of his Black Paintings. Depicting the Roman myth of the Titan Cronus eating his children to avoid being overthrown, it represents themes of madness, fear, and the devastation of time.
This debris field is our ring & we think Saturn's ring might have been an icy moon or comet it's devouring with tidal forces, making Goya's famous painting seem EXTRA RELEVANT.
Eventually, this debris de-orbits, taking tens to hundreds of millions of years to do so.
So here's our evidence!
A long time ago,
in a galaxy... well...
very very close to you.
Earth had a ring (probably).
For about 40 million years in the Ordovician (466 MYA), any trilobites that looked skyward would have seen the faint shimmer of the Earth's ring.
Let's look at the evidence for this conclusion.

An ICE thug tried to shoot another peaceful observer for recording his illegal actions. They are still harassing, threatening, and trying to shoot folks in Minnesota! #pinks #bluecrew #momsky #abolishice
Another U.S. citizen murdered by ICE.
Another ICE cover story that doesn't match the footage and evidence.
One year later, and now the truth is coming out.

What the fuck is wrong with America. That his approval is anywhere near 40 is madness. He should be closer to 20.
Fuck sake the dems and others are not making the case that he is STEALING democracy from under their noses. In plain sight.
Something must be done.

I am frankly more concerned about the apathy of the American public and even more importantly the lack of leadership in the Democratic Party.
This is not a dress rehearsal. Every single American must speak out against this Facist administration.

Reverend Jesse Jackson called on each of us to be heralds of change, to be messengers of hope; to step forward and say “Send me” wherever we have a chance to make an impact.
How fortunate we were that Jesse Jackson answered that call. What a great debt we owe to him.
Come on ….!

The Department of Justice has sued 30 states and DC for access to their unreacted sensitive voter data. My law firm is fighting them in all 30 cases.
We are dedicating so many resources because these are the most important legal fights and the future of free and fair elections is at stake.
Barrack Obama's speech at Rev. Jesse Jackson's memorial service was beautiful. Hopeful, respectful, reverent, humble, eloquent, humorous, gracious and dignified. Thank you, Mr. President.
Pres. Obama at the Jackson service:
"We are living in a time when it can be hard to hope. Each day, we wake up to some new assault on our democratic institutions."
"If we don't step up, no one else will. How fortunate we were that Jesse Jackson answered that call. What a great debt we owe to him."
In the last 14 months of Biden's term, 1,740,000 total jobs were created. In the first 14 months of Trump's current term, 150,000 jobs were created. That's a ratio of 11.6 to 1 ...
The idea that "Republicans do better on the economy" is and has always been BS.
Israel reports that Iran is using cluster bombs in the attacks. Authorities in Tel Aviv are outraged by this barbarism and remind that the only territory where such missiles can be used is Gaza and Ukraine.
This is Trump's economy. High tariffs forcing small and medium sized businesses to close. Manufacturing is not coming back to the US and is still moving overseas. AI is replacing high tech workers while AI data centers consume energy and scarce water supplies.
