@hangindanger @RonWyden I like your thinking. Yes, I'm all for stuff going back to its original owners, thank you! It was native Americans who tended these lands for 10,000 years before we showed up. So, yes, let's give it all back!

@RonWyden Correct me if I'm Wrong, Ronald, but isn't it American companies that initially built the oil industry infrastructure in Venezuela before it was seized by the Venezuelan government?
English
No US oil company should risk investing in Venezuela. Companies that take part in Trump's lawless takeover of Venezuela's resources should keep in mind that any American tax dollars they take to invest in a foreign country will be recovered by the next administration.

Ultra Processed Food, and the system that produces it, has overtaken tobacco in terms of health and economic harms, and is also the leading cause of plastic pollution, loss of biodiversity and deforestation, and the second leading cause of emissions.

@MeidasTouch I wish people would remember that early last spring, maybe even beginning of February, Lutnick announced the coming end of data reporting . Wish I would have saved the clip.

It's frankly one of the biggest scandals in American history that the Trump administration is not releasing the inflation data for October. This is economic suicide all because they don't want to share the truth with the American people.

This is just not another tweet or another BS press conference from @PressSec Karoline Leavitt.
This is the Trump administration saying on video they may NEVER release a JOBS REPORT again.
Things are that awful.
Things are going to get that much worse.
So they plan to BURY IT.

Leavitt: The Democrats may have permanently damaged the federal statistical system with October C.P.I. And jobs reports likely never being released and all of that economic data released will be permanently impaired

@saras76 @harryjsisson Reminds me of an old saying: "Imagine being Sara Rose years old and spending your entire life and weekends crying about what someone said in Xitterstan."

Democrats are caving to Republicans right now on the government shutdown. A “promise” from MAGA to vote on ACA subsidies in 40 days is nothing. Why are we trusting them to live up to their side of the deal? Why aren’t they fighting harder on this? Total BS.

@TheDemCoalition Your comment demonstrates lack of understanding the difference between sex and gender.
We have a mortal crisis facing our nation. How about we focus on that?

Trump will distract you with some anti-trans bigotry in one hand over here while the other hand gives the keys to government to un-elected billionaires to rob you blind 👇
“We all want sports to be fair, students to be safe, and young people to have the opportunity to participate alongside their peers,” said Human Rights Campaign President Kelley Robinson. “But an attempted blanket ban deprives kids of those things. This order could expose young people to harassment and discrimination, emboldening people to question the gender of kids who don’t fit a narrow view of how they’re supposed to dress or look. And it comes at a time when the Trump Administration continues to distract and divide the country, handing the keys to the federal government to unelected billionaires and refusing to address urgent issues that the country is facing. Participating in sports is about learning the values of teamwork, dedication, and perseverance. And for so many students, sports are about finding somewhere to belong. We should want that for all kids – not partisan policies that make life harder for them.”

Please watch this short film, something Zeteo is so proud to have commissioned, of a Palestinian family trying to return to their destroyed home in northern Gaza.
Powerful. Heartbreaking. Infuriating.
