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.

More cops have been arrested for using flock cameras to stalk women than there are transgender athletes in youth sports.
Multiple Missouri candidates are running ads that barely conceals calls for gun violence against their opponents. Some of it is MAGA-on-MAGA, which, curiously, still upsets me.
The truth of life is sometimes much easier than we think
MORON ... Josh Hawley called Trump dishonest by accident. He posted that “no honest person pleads the Fifth,” and got reminded Trump did it 400-plus times.
Trump wanted his new Air Force One fast. He got it. The “master dealmaker” rushed the job, cut corners on security, paid extra for speed, and is sending taxpayers the bill. Now we’re paying hundreds of millions more to go back and add the protections that should’ve been there in the first place.
If I win, it was a fair election. If I lose, it was rigged. If I win my court case, it was a fair trial. If I lose my court case, it was an activist judge. If I win at business, I’m a genius. If I go bankrupt, I was even smarter. If I win a war, I’m a genius. If I lose a war, it was my generals.
IT’S TIME FOR BLUE STATES TO FIGHT BACK. HARD. Why are we funding a federal government that openly punishes states for not voting for Trump? The Trump administration admitted in court it canceled nearly $8 billion in clean energy grants because the states didn’t vote for him. Blue states only.
Historians will call this the Chode Address.

the whole "women's sports exist to protect women from men" framing is hilarious, given that a lot of these divisions were initially formed because men were deeply embarrassed any time a woman beat them at a sport olympic shooting was mixed gender right up until a woman won the gold
It is hard to adequately express how depressingly negative, divisive, and soul-crushingly dishonest the GOP election ad campaigns are in the state of Missouri.
We feel steamrolled. By tech billionaires. By bought politicians. Steamrolled political parties. By advertisers. The list goes on…

Since Trump can't be bothered to have any tact, I will ensure that this post is at least accurate.
Let’s say they pass SAVE. Tillis explains why it can’t be implemented by then. That’s what Trump wants. That’s when he calls an election security crisis. youtube.com/watch?v=OaTR...

Funny how the states’ rights people are dead set on getting their hands on state voter rolls.
"the difference now is that he’s less inhibited. People like him who are narcissistic sociopaths get worse over time. And in addition to that, his age—and I’m not saying he has dementia, but certainly his brain isn’t functioning as well as it ever did, even though I don’t think it really functioned
So that’s it. Vladimir Putin convinced Donald Trump that he would win the 2020 election if Trump worked with Russian agents, despite how his chances were looking after failing as US president. And when Russian interference didn’t save him, Donald Trump wouldn’t believe Putin had failed.
As a parent, let me say that I would dedicate my remaining years to inventing new and unpleasant repercussions for the staff of this school if they did this to my kid.
ProPublica@propublica.org · 3w agoTHREAD: The boy is called a liar. He’s told not to defend himself. Then the private school owner encourages all of his peers to attack him, one by one. She hits him, repeatedly, with a plastic pipe-like object. How does this school still exist — and receive state funds? 🧵
