In today’s Letter @hcrichardson.bsky.social demonstrates why alliances are so important, and why, in a world where might makes right tens of millions die. Rarely the instigators. We need to support NATO. We need to support Ukraine. We need to replace the current regime. State by state.

Amazon just announced 14,000 layoffs. Its CEO made over $40M last year. UPS announced 48,000 layoffs. Its CEO made over $24M last year. Intel announced 20,000 layoffs. Its new CEO's pay package is valued at nearly $69M. This is what I mean when I say the system is rigged.

I think renewables have the momentum now

This you, Trump?

Worth reading. www.nytimes.com/2025/06/23/o...

Just like with the 2030 election: Trump &Co totally and falsely disparage a process and its result and THEN claim “we have to restore Americans faith and trust”. Lack of faith and trust that they maliciously generated.

What the hell is it with these people???!!!

#Scotland FTW!!

With Colton's conviction, that makes FOUR pardoned January 6th insurrectionists who have faced charges for solicitation of a minor or child sex abuse of some kind.

Amazon Prime Day strategy is as old as the hills - jack up the price and then offer it “on sale” for the lower original price.

it’s absurd that NYT forced him to delete these skeets, which … convey the factual information that Zohran Mamdani is, in fact, a man of South Asian descent who was born and raised in Africa, and that the pseudonymous source of the hacked material is a white supremacist eugenicist.

God this makes me feel soooo old! But I still love it

This

Catholicism has borders??

Wanna see something cool? At the Grammy's in 1976, Ella Fitzgerald and Mel Torme explained what jazz is. The result? The crowd losing its mind. 🔥

Serious question here: if anti-vaxers have a dog, do they vaccinate it for rabies?

Ted Bundy was considered charming as well

Tommy Tuberville’s total lack of respect and empathy for fired USAid workers😏

The good news: NASDAQ is up over 100 points right now. The bad news:

How is Elon holding up tonight? 😂

Funny - I always thought applying eyeliner was more difficult than bronzer. Vance is definitely a pro. Donnie - not so much

This is Epic! 😂 youtu.be/ModcAfwJI2E?...

Mark Zuckerberg is probably super pissed they weren’t using WhatsApp…..

Kash Patel is actually thinking “why wasn’t I invited to the chat?”

I remember Trump criticizing Biden for “not firing anybody”

Jesus Christ. Lock them all up. These are not serious people www.theatlantic.com/politics/arc...

Due process is for everyone, or it won't be there for you when you need it.

To recap: Not only is the richest man in the world attacking the poorest and most vulnerable people in the world and in our country, he also wants you to feel sorry for him while he does it.

This was exactly what I was realizing the other day

Elon Musk has invested in a lot of companies - why not people? I was a Pell Grant recipient all 4 years of college. Uncle Sam got a great return given all the taxes I paid out the last 40 years with the resulting career from that college education It’s not a handout - it’s an investment.

😂 I read this at first as if “the son of Trump and Musk” was walking to Marine Force One 😂😂

Whether you agree with Schumer position or not, a good leader would have his troops united. The Dems are not united

I’m so disgusted with the Dem leadership. They are so wimpy

Trump doesn’t hold all the cards, or even that many

Is Elon still crowing about how much Tesla has gone up since the election?

These are not smart people www.newsweek.com/military-rem...

Bullies get theirs in the end

I sure hope the saying “there are no Atheists in a foxhole” translates to “not as many anti-vaxers in a measles epidemic” www.foxnews.com/health/first...

But I don’t feel fine….

What the absolute fuck?

I used to say “when you lose the WSJ”….but man! When you lose the New York Post…!

Maine Governor to Trumps face “I will see you in court” Can we have more politicians like that?

Advancing American Interests Through Bribery www.whitehouse.gov/presidential...

RFkJr: “there’s no vaccine that is safe and effective” Jonas Salk: “I would like to have a word with you” www.forbes.com/sites/judyst...

What is Elon Musk getting up to with America’s payment system? www.economist.com/united-state... from The Economist

Do I have this right? Elon Musk - the guy in charge of preventing wasteful spending - dropped $40M on a Super Bowl ad? We could permanently house 800 homeless veterans for $40M. Or provide five million meals to the hungry. Or replace lead pipes in 8,500 homes.

Dear Chief Justice Roberts: what are you going to do when Trump openly defies a SCOTUS ruling? The only way it doesn’t happen is if you rule in his favor every single time…not sure which would be more abhorrent.

This and more of it!
