Governor Newsom needs to give the staffer who created this a big raise.

Solidarity is the only way

She should be famous.

BREAKING: Starbucks just announced a $1 billion restructuring and will close 59 unionized stores — nearly 10% of union locations. It includes the Roastery in Seattle, one of its busiest shops. CEO Brian Niccol made $100 million in four months last year.

If anti-fascists are a hate group, are fascists a love group?

The money isn’t “pouring into our country.” As a small business owner, it is pouring out of my wallet. Every day.

As a retail store owner, I pay the tariffs. Not the foreign country. I do. This is 20% added on top. If I don’t increase the retail prices to cover the tariffs, I will have to close my store. Americans don’t make the products I need.

OMG

Perfection.

If you’re wondering how ICE recruitment and training is going under Kristi Noem—South Park already nailed it.

She said she made it 21 years but that’s long enough to know this is bullshit. In my 53 years I agree. They’re dehumanizing us.

A sad moment for the Senate and the country. Republicans just confirmed Jeanine Pirro as U.S. Attorney for the District of Columbia. Yes, the same Judge Jeanine that even Fox News said was “crazy” and had to take off the air. How can they vote to confirm these people?

Can anyone help me find my kitten?

Trump’s illegal tariffs and budget-busting billionaire tax cuts have run down U.S. job growth but, instead of pulling back from these blunders, an inflamed Trump just blamed the messenger and fired the Commissioner of Labor Statistics.

So fucked up

Long before Project 2025 – there was a different playbook for turning a democracy into an autocracy. Let's talk about Viktor Orbán and Hungary. youtu.be/5bKz8vX2T44?...

A Story You Should Know

So Epstein, Virginia Giuffre, and Jean Luc Brunel all committed suicide? I’m no conspiracy theorist. Seriously asking. www.nbcnews.com/news/amp/rcn...

Virginia Giuffre, one of Jeffrey Epstein's most prominent abuse survivors, dies by suicide

Other Epstein victims credited Giuffre with giving them the courage to speak out.

“These are no ordinary times” Roy Cooper is right … and that’s why I’m running for Congress. We’re in a crisis and a crisis isn’t the time for novices to go to Washington and spend a year or two figuring out how to do the job … preserving democracy has no time to waste. Experience matters!

Texas GOP Rep. Giovanni Capriglione...the same man who rammed through a six‑week abortion ban...has been exposed: a 17‑year affair and allegedly paid for multiple abortions. These aren't leaders...they're hypocrites in power. If that doesn’t make you furious, you’re not awake.

Remember “item of grocery?” He doesn’t even know what the word means.

Groceries reached record highs in 2025. MAGA my ass!

I think all Trump voters should pay tariffs and the rest of us should pay lower prices. That would solve everything.

This is an order I’m placing for Christmas merchandise for my store. Who pays Trump’s idiotic tariffs?

July 18: If we have a smart president, you're never going to let the dollar slide. If you have a dummy, that could happen. July 25: A weak dollar makes you a hell of a lot more money. It doesn't sound good, but you make a hell of a lot more money with a weaker dollar than with a strong dollar

So good

It’s an ODE to the Rapist in Chief’s “Art of Deflection” -from the Epstein list 🤣😂🤣

Oops: On Joe Rogan’s podcast in September 2018, Tulsi Gabbard acknowledged that Russia interfered in the 2016 election. Rogan called it “amazing” that it took until 2016 for foreign election influence to become a major issue in the U.S.

When I was little, the U.S. military came to our home at gunpoint and took me and my family away. We were imprisoned for years in barbed wire camps simply because we were Japanese American. I have spent my life telling that story, hoping it would never be repeated.

ATTN: If you’re one of the 1,000 FBI agents who reviewed the Epstein files, feel free to reach out to me via signal (in my bio). I’ll keep you anonymous- as I have the thousands of current and former federal workers who have sent me tips. Please share this widely. 🙏🏻
