JUST IN: Trump is scrambling to stop the BBC from digging into the finances of his business empire after a judge ordered him to hand over records in his $10B defamation lawsuit against the network.
Republicans win the White House, enact trickle-down tax cuts, and collapse the economy. Feel like we've been here before? Here's why it keeps happening.
The United States Treasury: An ATM for the Rich and Powerful

Burning fossil fuels makes wildfires more frequent and more intense. Of course those who have made record profits causing the problem should pick up the bill.
You do realize that the President of the United States is STILL trafficking human beings and making a hefty profit off it. Right?
Abdul El-Sayed was outspent 9-to-1 by AIPAC and corporate Super PACs in the most expensive Senate Democratic primary of all time. Last night, he proved that organized people can beat organized money.
Woman on a bus (reading from an article): Have you ever discussed your fantasies with your partner? Her friend: Like the one where I’m in a cottage by the sea completely on my own with a book and a cup of tea?
Microsoft: $101 BILLION in profits. $12.5 BILLION in tax breaks. $176 BILLION in stock buybacks. 4,800 workers fired this week. 9,000 workers fired last year. Please don't tell me trickle-down economics works. It never did. Nothing trickles down.

We agree. We also know Trump posts this nonsense as a distraction. When things like this come out pay more attention to what he is not talking about… #RadioFreeAmerica #politics www.aol.com/articles/sto...
‘Stolen Valor’: Trump Ripped Over AI Pic Of Himself With Medals He Never Earned - AOL
Critics said the president’s latest AI fantasy crossed a line.

Literally my life would get easier, because the energy I have to put in to AVOID genAI tools is actually disruptive. This sounds like paradise.
I have one answer.
The only way AI features in my workday is as an annoyance inserted into a program or website I use. It is something to be worked around. It is astonishing how quickly some people have become reliant on the flattery machine.
Guys like this don’t realize that they are the freak

Did you see how Apple, Amazon Walmart and other big companies are refunding the billions of dollars they got back from the federal tariff settlement to their customers, who ultimately bore the cost of higher prices? Yea, me neither.
This headline from the BBC is so misleading. It’s a man with a gun- they are everywhere in America. The dictator wasn’t present. So not anywhere near an attempt on his life. Unfortunately.
RFK Jr's CDC reportedly scaled back foodborne disease tracking last year, removing cyclospora from mandatory reporting. The CDC also lost roughly 3,000 employees since 2025. Now a cyclosporiasis outbreak has killed 2 and sickened thousands across 45 states. "Make America Healthy Again."
A sweet little girl with autism brought her stuffed puppy to the dog show. One of the judges noticed her, came over, and asked if she’d like to show her dog too. What followed was pure magic. Original post

It was over for Max Miller politically when he said his wife couldn’t have been abused because she offered to make him dinner 6 days later. He may not have known it when he said it, but that was the end. You have to be a sick bastard to come up with that as your defense.
Stolen valor from Mr. Bone Spurs. An insult to every man and woman who has worn the uniform.
On this day in 1944, the Gestapo found Anne Frank and her family in their Secret Annex. Her diary stands as a warning against hatred and persecution. Eighty years later, we should recognize the warning signs before it’s too late.🙂↕️
