Target paid its CEO $21.8M last year — 794x the median Target worker's pay of $27,506.
Target has also spent $13.9B on stock buybacks since 2019, while remaining among the largest employers of Medicaid and SNAP recipients in America.
This is what I mean by a rigged economy.

criticizing the adult women who knowingly attach themselves to Trump - whether for his approval, proximity to fascist power, party status, or simply the joy of being evil - is not misogyny, no matter how much vicarious embarrassment it gives you to watch them do it

I'll summarize this: Mamdani asked NYers to keep air conditioning at 78 degrees. A wave criticism hit online. A MSNBC broadcast pointed out the US Department of Energy recommends that 78 degree figure.
Immediately after, the US Department of Energy deleted 6,000 web pages related to energy saving.

"The pick is bad for U.S. intelligence and a threat to civil liberties. But the greatest danger of appointing Pulte as DNI is that it’s a further step in Trump’s plans to subvert free and fair elections in the United States, in 2026 but especially in 2028."
