DHS nominee Markwayne Mullin is one of the most active stock-traders in the Senate β€” and violated the STOCK Act against insider trading as recently as last August.

He currently holds stock in L3Harris, which has millions in contracts with ICE and FEMA.

The grift continues.

This is one of the most jaw dropping moments of Trump’s presidency. Up there with brainstorming about injecting bleach and shining light up orifices to cure COVID.

Yes, Donald Trump has brought terror to our streets. And has failed to bring down prices.

But at least the economy is doing well! Oh, wait . . .

Danielle Smith drags the judiciary deeper into her partisan mud slinging The Alberta Premier’s referendum is a direct threat to the proper functioning of our justice system

Danielle Smith’s referendum on judges isn’t about democracy. It’s about power. And it’s part of a troubling trend in conservative politics: misrepresenting the facts and undermining public confidence in the justice system.

Gwendolyn is right, many sites were just starting to do the important work of interpreting community histories in more honest and inclusive ways. And, scholars are currently working with someof these collections. *sigh*

Cluely CEO Roy Lee admits to publicly lying about revenue numbers last year | TechCrunch The $7 million in annual recurring revenue that Cluely CEO Roy Lee shared last summer was a lie, its founder and CEO Roy Lee admitted on Thursday on X.

Who could possibly have predicted that a company whose slogan is "cheat on everything" would cheat?

We utilize masks to keep ourselves and those around us healthy.
YOU utilize masks to cover your identity in order to commit heinous felonies.
We are not the same.πŸ–•πŸ–•

What I find a little bit funny is the Conservative party who fought tooth and nail against masks, are suddenly okay with masks.

We are not the same.

I am so sick of the BS from the US government.

Environmental groups in the United States and Canada are sounding the alarm about a U.S. government proposal to change a federal regulation introduced in 2008 to protect a critically endangered species of whale. #Canada
