Jared Kushner is an anemic weasel.

He's telling Ukraine that if they want peace, they should surrender part of their country to the thug who attacked them.

Those of us, who keep our mouths shut when we don't know, have a great deal to say.

A theory is an explanation of what causes what and why. Most of the media focuses on the alternative explanations that authorities manufacture to maintain their agenda.

Corporate America’s playbook:

1) Exploit workers to maximize profits
2) Use profits to buy Congress
3) Use Congress to pass union-busting laws
4) Use union-busting laws to further exploit workers
5) Rinse and repeat

How we break this cycle? Build back a powerful labor movement.

A couple days ago, Mike Johnson mocked Thomas Massie for suggesting House leadership could keep Congress out to avoid the new Epstein Files Transparency Act, calling the idea “stupid” and “nonsensical.”

Now he has canceled the final two weeks of September.

Dear Americans,

The president golfs every weekend while getting soldiers needlessly killed and and got mad that you get “too many holidays.”

I’ve known many other defense secretaries, starting with Cap Weinberger, who served as defense secretary under Reagan.

I can say without fear of contradiction that Pete Hegseth is the stupidest and least qualified of them all.
Hegseth Must Go
If Trump won’t fire him, Congress must impeach him

Uber just announced it will lay off 10% of its workforce, or around 3,300 workers.

Last year, Uber CEO Dara Khosrowshahi made $35M — 360 times his median employee's pay — and announced a $20B stock buyback program to further enrich shareholders and himself.

Textbook corporate greed.

This, after Rep. Thomas Massie, named Fekkai on the House floor as one of several alleged Epstein “co-conspirators” who should be investigated & prosecuted.

Socialism is what they called public power.

Socialism is what they called social security.

Socialism is what they called the growth of free and independent labor organizations.

Socialism is their name for almost anything that helps all the people.

A major battleground Texas county will have 30% fewer Election Day polling locations for this year’s midterms, thanks to GOP officials.

The sentiment from outraged voters about the Republican county commissioners who approved the cuts?

“Vote them out.”

MLB owners say they need a salary cap, which will hold payrolls down, leaving more money for them.

A team about to finish under .500 for the 11th consecutive season and that hasn’t won a postseason game since 2009 is going to be sold for $4B.

As a result of Trump’s tariffs and war, American families are spending $3,500 more per year on the cost of food, gas and medicine.

Meanwhile... Trump and his family have made more than $4 BILLION off the presidency.

That's the cost of corruption.
