Regulations are what keeps ordinary Americans healthy and, often, alive. It took spoiled meat and rodent droppings out of our food. It took harmful lead out of our gasoline and paint. It took poison out of our water. Deregulation only achieves one goal: making rich corporations richer.

Rock Super group ASIA's debut album was a masterpiece, selling over 5 million albums and dominating rock music charts in the early 1980's. This is one of their best songs. 🎶 Asia - Heat Of The Moment 🎶 www.youtube.com/watch?v=lCAL...

This is terrifying but not in the least bit surprising because conservatives around the globe have allowed their greed to cloud their judgement. Doing nothing is not an option. Scientists say that Earth is on track 'to become uninhabitable'. futurism.com/science-ener...

Franzi Schimmer captured this Grizzly bear in Brooks Falls, Alaska just floating along, tippy-tapping down the river, browsing the salmon. Prior to hibernation, up to 40% of a bear's body mass is fat, which is less dense than water (~0.9 g/cm^2), so the murder-monster is also a floaty-boaty.

Breaking news: ICE expects to spend $38.3 billion on its plan to acquire warehouses across the U.S. and retrofit them into immigrant detention centers that can hold tens of thousands of people, according to agency documents.

There are so many fucked up things with the current administration that it's hard to focus on one but this recent move is basically a death sentence for the planet. I've been involved with more boots on the ground actions over the years than I can count and this really bums me out.

They are absolutely right. The current AG of the DOJ is protecting powerful pedophiles and putting their victims in jeopardy. Just despicable. Pam Bondi must be disbarred for being so dishonest and then charged for crimes when this regime is done.

Is anyone aware of an up to date tally of all J6 rioters who were pardoned and have re-offended? These people are sick and rotten to their core.

While some folks downstairs are still complaining about a sporting event and languages they don’t understand. Up here in Canada, the CBC is showing Olympic hockey with play-by-play in Inuktitut. It’s the Canadian experience I didn’t know I needed. ❤️🇨🇦 #olympics #inuktitut

The current Attorney General of the Pariah States of America is suffering from extreme trump derangement syndrome and is the most unfit and partisan hack AG in American history. And that was a high bar to clear after Bill Barr! Just pathetic with these freaking clowns.

When this criminal regime has run its course and we have responsible leadership once again, we need to go scorched earth against the corruption and criminality that these people have done in betraying the country. I trust one man to be the Attorney General of the United States.

Jayapal: To the survivors in the room, if you are willing, please stand. And if you are willing, please raise your hands. If you have still not been able to meet with this DOJ. Please note for the record that every single survivor has raised their hand.

JFC this is insane, forcing the Pentagon to buy electricity from coal powered plants and more subsidies for coal burning power plants. Follow the money, coal barons are bribing this felonious thug regime to keep coal viable. National security my ass. 🤬 oilprice.com/Latest-Energ...

Ladies and gentlemen, this is how the regime is burning taxpayer money and driving up the deficit.

The Epstein Scandal is roiling around the globe and accountability is beginning to happen, this is the biggest political coverup in history. Give this a listen, the representative is quite shaken by the "depths of depravity" that she saw when reviewing unredacted files.

🚨 Make no mistake about this. This isn't about deporting violent immigrants.

Historical gaslighting from the most dangerous man in the world. His alternative reality and getting millions of Americans to live in that fake reality with him is doing lasting damage to our country and it's stature in the world. Vote responsively.
