Here's the truth about tax cuts for the rich.
They explode the federal debt, fuel giant profits at the biggest firms and financial institutions, and stoke a surge in billionaire wealth but do nothing for average working people.
Nothing trickles down.
When your home burns, floods, or is destroyed in an extreme climate weather event, when someone in your family dies from heat waves, or when crops fail and people starve—come for these three people: Wael Sawan (Shell CEO), Darren Woods (Exxon CEO), and Patrick Pouyanne (TotalEnergies CEO). They knew what was coming and did it to you anyway. Sue them, shame them, heckle them, despise them. These are choices. They are to blame, not society.

Don't be fooled by the Republicans' intra-party "fighting" over the government shutdown. They're essentially all in on this.
Their goal(s)? Occam's Razor says:
1) Trigger a recession that -- because Big Journalism will publish whatever the Republicans claim, however untrue -- will be blamed on Democrats since they hold the White House.
2) Panic the Democrats (again with journalism's help) to give into massive cuts in programs that, you know, help people.
Kudos to Sarah Silverman! This will most likely become a landmark case.

Google has just updated its 2FA Authenticator app and added a much-needed feature: the ability to sync secrets across devices.
TL;DR: Don't turn it on.
The new update allows users to sign in with their Google Account and sync 2FA secrets across their iOS and Android devices.
We analyzed the network traffic when the app syncs the secrets, and it turns out the traffic is not end-to-end encrypted. As shown in the screenshots, this means that Google can see the secrets, likely even while they’re stored on their servers. There is no option to add a passphrase to protect the secrets, to make them accessible only by the user.
Why is this bad?
Every 2FA QR code contains a secret, or a seed, that’s used to generate the one-time codes. If someone else knows the secret, they can generate the same one-time codes and defeat 2FA protections. So, if there’s ever a data breach or if someone obtains access .... 🧵
It didn't take long after news of Tucker Carlson's abrupt firing from Fox yesterday, for one of the most notorious Kremlin propagandists to literally offer Tucker a job.
You can't make this up. 😂

Silicon Valley’s elite made their billions through luck, not genius. But as the public turns on them, they want to protect their privilege, so they’re trying to convince us they’re inherently superior.
For Disconnect, I explain how billionaires like Elon Musk are bringing eugenics back by promoting effective altruism, longtermism, and pronatalism. The goal is to cement their position at the top, and we need to stop them.
