This is not okay. Trump’s administration is threatening “devastating” retaliation if European officials move forward with plans that could restrict Elon Musk’s Starlink access to parts of the European market.

There is much to admire in Abdul El-Sayed's response to the GOP plant in his audience. But one of the most deft things he did was to point out (twice) that our Constitution protects our right to follow *no* religion, thereby casting Christian nationalist Tommy as the actual religious extremist.

this more or less already happened in California due to Prop 13 in the late 70s and now boomers like Ray Warner pay effectively nothing in property taxes but people under 40 pay $10k-25k per year. every time a boomer says this, they’re trying to rob you.
