Six congressmen bought between $83,000 to $245,000 in SpaceX stock just before its IPO:

-Jared Moskowitz
-Gil Cisneros
-Dan Meuser
-John McGuire
-William Timmons
-John James

Five serve on committees whose work impacts SpaceX's business.

We must ban members of Congress from trading stock.

Holy shit! Jim Jordan is reduced to stammering when Kasie Hunt presses him on why he continues to support Max Miller despite credible allegations that he abused his ex-wife and toddler daughter

Amazon, Meta, and Microsoft are all planning huge layoffs.

Amazon got $17.5B in federal tax breaks last year. Jeff Bezos is worth $271B.

Meta saved $13.7B in taxes. Mark Zuckerberg is worth $231B.

Microsoft saved $12.5B last year. Its CEO is worth $1.3B.

This is what a rigged economy looks like.

Justice Sonia Sotomayor lets Brett Kavanaugh have it:

“I had a colleague in that case who wrote, you know, these are only temporary stops. This is from a man whose parents were professionals. And probably doesn’t really know any person who works by the hour."

I like U.S. Senate candidates who don’t cut and paste their policies from other candidates’ websites from other states.

This rundown of Jasmine Crockett’s original, Texas specific policies is exactly what doing your own homework actually looks like.

The arrest of Don Lemon is textbook fascism—a brazen attempt to silence reporting on a criminal regime. Stand up for Don, because our rights stand and fall with those of courageous journalists throughout this country.

No one can be watching this Davos speech and reach any conclusion but that the President of the United States is mentally disturbed and that something is deeply wrong with him. This is both embarrassing and extremely dangerous.

Moriarty: "A police officer of color who was off duty was boxed in by ICE - she's a citizen - they demanded to know who she was & see her papers. She was going to try to record it & they ripped the phone out of her hand. That happened to a cop. That's what's happening here on the streets of MN."
