  • China arrests Indian woman at Shanghai airport claiming her place of birth - the state Arunachal Pradesh in Northeast India - is 'Chinese territory'

  • She is likely Tibetan and not ethnic Han Chinese.

  • Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene to resign in January

  • LOL I think this is MTG playing the game like Trump - this is a tantrum, a threat, like a girlfriend who threatens to break up with you. It gets your attention - that is the true objective of this. She ain't done with politics. She's making a move here.

  • New Jersey may stop paying federal taxes under new governor

  • “If they’re not gonna run the programs, then what are we paying them for?” she said. “It’s like, you know, you’re paying us for a service and they’re not delivering. So let’s stop paying for it.”

  • Trump Shocks With Earnest Praise of Zohran Mamdani: He’s Going to ‘Surprise’ Conservatives

    Jump

  • “I think, hopefully, you’re gonna have a really great mayor, and the better he does, the happier I am, I will say. There’s no difference in party, there’s no difference in anything, and we’re gonna be helping him to make everybody’s dream come true — having a strong and very safe New York.”

    Wow. Did someone give Trump a drug? Did Mamdani hypnotize him? This is bonkers.

  • House Democratic leaders contact Capitol Police after Trump "death threats" against vets

    Jump

  • Shouldn't Trump be charged under the law? Or is that a president carrying out the duties of his office and thus is exempt from the law?

  • Clearing brain plaques isn’t enough to heal Alzheimer’s

  • There are a quite a few inexpensive options for prevention of dementia that are much cheaper than this.

  • Laura Loomer Warns, ‘The GOP Has a Nazi Problem’

    Jump

  • OMG! No she didn't!!! Has she grown a sliver of self-awareness? Who put a mirror before her? This could be a break-through!

  • Clearing brain plaques isn’t enough to heal Alzheimer’s

    Jump

  • Not to mention that the original research on amyloid beta has now been proven to have been "doctored" and quite conclusively at that, why they continue to pursue drugs that clear it behooves me. Literally throwing billions of dollars into trash.

  • Americans with six-figure incomes are in 'survival mode'

    Jump

  • This was some years ago - even before the first Trump presidency - I read a perfectly reasonable sounding piece from someone about how he's struggling as a dual-income family making $400,000 a year. There's the mortgage for the house and the summer home and the vacation condo and the kids' tuitions at prestigious schools and family vacations and the 401ks and the kids' college tuition funds and how there was NOTHING LEFT after the bare necessities!

  • Trump re-pardons a Jan. 6 defendant to erase unrelated gun conviction

    Jump

  • This is a fucking joke. US is a fucking joke. Law means nothing if you're violating it on behalf of the powerful.

  • They are fucking up the bureaucracy.

  • The Value of NVIDIA Now Exceeds an Unprecedented 16% of U.S. GDP

    Jump

  • but that contradicts the great justification for capitalism: efficient markets. Monopolies are the exact opposite of efficient markets.

  • The Newsom donors missing from Prop 50

    Jump

  • US political system is now hostage to and held captive by the wealthy. It can't function without the money from them. Desires of the people will not be seen to as long as it is incongruent with the desires of the few rich. What a fucking joke it is.

  • The Value of NVIDIA Now Exceeds an Unprecedented 16% of U.S. GDP

    Jump

  • I want to make a clarification here before we all get too far ahead with "16% of GDP". There are many things wrong with the way giant tech companies dominate their respective fields. However the value of a company does not equal its' share of the GDP. GDP is the OUTPUT of a country in 1 year. It does not equal the value of all the private enterprises combined which is what this comparison is trying to do. What we want to compare then, is to take NVIDIA's output in ONE YEAR and see how much of the economy it dominates. US GDP is ~ 30 trillion in 2025. Nvidia's output or revenue for current fiscal year is ~ $200 billion. That's 0.6% of the GDP. That's far cry from 16%, by about 27 times less.

    What we should be concerned are the size of the market cap of these giant tech companies dominating the total value of the stock market, as well as the monopolistic margins these companies enjoy. All of these contribute to the imbalances in the world we see today - in the economies, in the society and social structure, and in politics. Communism once rose two centuries ago in protest against the concentration of power in the hands of a few. A solution is needed to remedy the imbalances of today.
