Ben Arbuckle and Jim Nagy visited suburban Miami on Tuesday to check in with #Sooners QB target Brady Quinn. The talented signal-caller now says he'll take a multi-day visit to Oklahoma in June. "They're QBU... They want me pretty bad." ➡️ on3.com/teams/oklahoma…

STITT and SWADLEY- As the Swadley’s criminal fraud trial is underway, here’s a look back to 2022, when defendant Brent Swadley became emotional hearing the governor deny a relationship with him. Swadley provided me this photo of the pair… #oklahoma @okcfox

To be clear, Wemby is standing outside of his boundary and crossing over into Chet’s area. Chet pointed it out, Wemby stayed, and Chet stepped where he’s entitled to be. Wasn’t malicious, and the blame is on Wemby.

Jeff Bezos just said the bottom half of Americans should pay zero federal income tax. And honestly? He may have accidentally exposed the entire scam. Bezos pointed to a nurse in Queens making roughly $75,000 a year and paying around $12,000 in taxes: “We shouldn’t be asking this nurse in Queens to send money to Washington.” Think about how insane this system has become. A nurse working 12-hour shifts is taxed before she even sees her paycheck while billionaires borrow against appreciating assets, exploit loopholes, and sometimes pay lower effective tax rates than school teachers. The average American is funding an empire they can barely afford to live in. Wars. Interest payments. Corporate subsidies. Defense contracts. Lobbyist wish lists. Meanwhile the person changing bedpans in Queens gets her paycheck carved up like she’s financing Rome before collapse. The most dangerous thing Bezos said wasn’t about taxes. It was admitting out loud that the people carrying the country on their backs are getting crushed while the system tells them it’s “normal.”

For those upset about this, here’s how much hotel CEOs make per year for comparison: Hilton CEO: $27.6M Hyatt CEO: $26.7M Marriott: $22.97M Wyndham CEO: $13.55M Choice Hotels: $8M They can afford to pay their workers more if they can afford to pay themselves this.
More Perfect Union@MorePerfectUS

Union hotel housekeepers in New York City will soon make over $100,000 a year. A new contract the union and the owners of nearly 250 hotels would raise wages by more than 50%. If workers ratify the deal it'll mean life-changing money for 27,000 union members and their families.

The fact a 12 pack of Coke is now $10.00 in most stores when not on sale is what is keeping people poor. The fact that the average price of gas is above $4.50 a gallon is what is keeping people poor. The fact that the average price of a used car is $26,000.00 in a country with a median income of $64,000.00 doesn't help your case.

@CarolinaLion2 Poor people dont usually buy new cars or the average house, never have, and yes spending 20 on lunch is part of what is keeping you poor.

This isn’t quite true. American universities saw the declining birth rates and went out and built international recruiting networks. Higher education became a major export service for the United States. What the universities didn’t count on was Donald Trump and Steven Miller making the US a scary place for foreign students to seek an education.
Aakash Gupta@aakashgupta

Universities had 17 years of warning. They responded by doing the opposite of what the math demanded. In 2008, American birth rates fell off a cliff. The Great Recession made people stop having kids. Those never-born children would be turning 18 right now. The number of U.S. high school graduates peaked at roughly 3.9 million in 2025. By 2029, that number drops 15%. By 2041, it drops by nearly half a million students per year. Every school in this tweet had access to the same Census data. They all saw the same curve. Administrative positions at U.S. colleges grew 60% between 1993 and 2009, ten times the rate of tenured faculty growth. Non-instructional spending (student services, administration) grew 29% from 2010 to 2018. Instructional spending grew 17%. Average tuition at public four-year schools went from $3,500 in 2000 to $10,560 in 2023. Yale now has more administrators than undergraduate students. 5,460 administrators for fewer than 5,000 undergrads. They built the cost structure of a growth company on top of a customer base that was mathematically guaranteed to shrink. The split in this data tells you everything. Clemson, Syracuse, Duke, UNC, and Indiana are all cutting because the model broke. Alabama, Ole Miss, and the University of Florida are turning away more applicants than ever. Harvard gets five applications for every spot. The middle is where the cliff hits. Elite schools absorb demand. Everyone between elite and community college fights over a shrinking pool. The Fed published a study in December 2024 predicting 80 colleges will close in the next five years. Since 2016, over 100 already have. In 2024 alone, 28 shut down. One per week. These program cuts and layoffs are a decade late. The birth rate data was sitting in Census spreadsheets the entire time. Everyone in higher education administration saw the enrollment cliff coming. They hired more administrators anyway.

99 years is the amount of prison time a doctor in Alabama will receive if they perform an abortion. 6 months is the amount of prison time you will receive if you rape an unconscious girl next to a dumpster. Wake up.
