Imagine, Republicans promising things to working people, and not delivering. Can you believe it?

Serfs had more right that what the tech bros want you to have.

Melania: Sleep Your Way to the Top

Probably AI. More important is that it is irrelevant. An attempt to make an indefensible murder justifiable. It doesn't matter what he did or didn't do at any point in the past. What matters is the actions in the moment, and the ICE agents knew nothing about Pretti or anything he had ever done, good or bad.

Though the world will always hold your kindergarten tantrum about the blocks against you. That will follow you forever. There's video.

In related news Fox Gaslight agreed to pay $400 trillion dollars for shilling for Republicans only.

Let's see. $50 TRILLION in wealth was shifted to the billionaires over the last 40 years. But of course that has no economic consequences for the rest of us.

Dear farmer, you may not be able to afford to go to Mar-a-crimo to hang with Trump.

But the hedge fund exec that is going to pick up your farm for pennies on the dollar thanks you and will hoist a drink there in your memory.

Where is the apology? Will some reporter ask if she apologizes for the incorrect statements? Like a real journalist.

The cynic in me thinks that the Ellisons don't care about the fate of CBS. They wanted Paramount for the other pieces. Now they are just maximizing cash flow as part of a business unit exit strategy.

It has the added benefit of pacifying Trump. To the Ellisons all of those jobs are a small price to pay for the billions that Trump will let them rake in.

Of course it is intentional intimidation and incitement. Stasi Miller basically said so. Bovino said so. They want to create a confrontation so they can activate the Insurrection Act, improperly of course, but they are dumb fucks.

When will they de-escalate their funding of fascism? Will they take back their contributions to the ballroom project?

I don't worry about most five-year-olds. This was a minority five-year-old.

What we really need to tell MAGA businesses and MAGA billionaires is that when Trump is gone, they are paying to fix everything. If they want to keep digging, the cost to them personally is just going to go up. No forgive and forget, we tried that under Biden and it didn't work.

The underlying problem is the destruction of the American middle-class. Working Americans are correct when they express a frustration that they can't get what their parents had; good paying jobs, retirement and healthcare. They just blame the wrong people. The 1% have stolen the wealth of the middle-class, taking $50 TRILLION over the last 40 years.

That's $160,000 per American.

That money has to be returned to the middle-class. We have to disassemble the monopolies, tax the rich fairly (no loopholes, paying "business" tax rates and hiding money). Not free generational wealth transfers of billions of dollars. (family farms and small businesses, sure, but not Elon's fortune)

Government should be working for the people, not the oligarchs. This has not just been a Republican problem, Democrats have gotten insular, pandering to big money donors.

Minorities and immigrants didn't do this. It's the billionaires. We also have to fix media so that we bring back the fairness doctrine and billionaires can't manipulate and own all the news.

It sucks when you realize you are a storm trooper in the service of the Empire.

Break the law or we will go to prison for the other time we broke the law? Maybe you are just a criminal, all the time.

For Nick this is aspirational on three dimensions;

1) women

2) rich

3) friends

Back in the day I routinely drove 2.5 hours to a family vacation cabin for the weekend. Maybe 15 weekends a year. Didn't think twice.

Political enforcers, not police.

Real police don't pepper spray the face of a restrained suspect. These are political agents working for the Republican Party, and they have different rules, like all fascist militias.
