50 years of tax cuts for the rich failed to trickle down, economics study says
50 years of tax cuts for the rich failed to trickle down, economics study says

Tax cuts for the wealthy didn't boost the economies of the U.S. and 17 other countries — but they did worsen income inequality.

Walt Kelly’s Pogo poster for the inaugural #EarthDay on April 22, 1970.

Pogo standing in the swamp covered in litter and garbage, ready to clean up, but he sadly looks at us and says “We have met the enemy and he is us.”

NY’s Attorney General asks the court to reject Trump’s sketchy Knight Insurance bond and give him a week to replace it with a bond from a reputable surety. s3.documentcloud.org/documents/24...

NEW: NY AG Letitia James asks Judge Engoron to REJECT Trump’s $175 million bond s3.documentcloud.org/documents/24...

The Appellate Division substantially reduced to $175 million the undertaking that Defendants were required to post to stay execution of this Court's judgment pending appeal. After receiving this favorable ruling, rather than select as the surety a large national insurance company licensed in New York, experienced in underwriting surety bonds, and with policyholder surplus far greater than $175 million, Defendants chose instead Knight Specialty Insurance Company ("KSIC"), a small insurer that is not authorized to write business in New York and thus not regulated by the state's insurance department, had never before written a surety bond in New York or in the prior two years in any other jurisdiction, and has a total policyholder surplus of just $138 million. Defendants and KSIC (collectively, "Movants") have failed to justify KSIC as the surety on this extraordinarily large undertaking for a number of reasons.

LMAO everyone saying NPR was clearly editorially both-sidesing shit vindicated af today

At NPR... "I and a couple of other editorial leaders were encouraged to make sure that any coverage of a Trump lie was matched with a story about a lie from Hillary Clinton. Another colleague asked what to do if one candidate just lied more than the other." Silence. slate.com/business/202...

NPR Is a Mess. But “Wokeness” Isn’t the Problem.

An update: Just minutes ago the Senate voted to bring the expanded FISA bill to the floor for consideration. Full Senate vote on this bill to expand the government's warrantless surveillance power is coming in the next day or two. I'll be working down to the wire to stop it.
