After Trump's arraignment, Don Jr. recklessly posted a photo of his judge's daughter online.

Which inspired AOC to tweet her take on what it really says about Trump that Don Jr. is stooping to such a low. A must-read, folks: https://www.comicsands.com/aoc-trump-jr-judge-daughter-2659739806.html?utm_source=mastodon&utm_medium=toot&utm_campaign=SAND

I judge people based on the length of time I can speak with them before they espouse conspiracy theories.

Justice Thomas is corrupt. He should resign, but he won’t because he is also without shame. He also knows his GOP pals, bought by big donors like his own billionaire buddy, won’t ever hold him to account.

In several states, existing laws encourage vigilantism, while new laws are giving power to private citizens to enforce extremist policing of our private lives and our schools. Witness Kyle Rittenhouse, who crossed state lines while armed to “protect” businesses in Kenosha but wound up taking the lives of two people. Or Greg and Travis McMichael, the murderers of Ahmaud Arbury.

Today in #TheBigPicture, we look back at the history of vigilante laws and examine modern examples to see how red-state governments have empowered vigilantes and bounty hunters to do their dirty work. You can read more here: https://thinkbigpicture.substack.com/p/gop-vigilante-laws-subvert-courts

Why are prices so high?

USA’s largest egg corp profits ⬆️ 718%—raising prices

5 Big Oil corp profits ⬆️ 100%—raising prices

Large Corp profits ⬆️ 80%—raising prices

Inflation @ 6.04% & Wages only ⬆️ 4.4%

It’s not inflation
It’s not a labor shortage
It’s 100% corporate greed

Let 2023 be the year of accountability.
