Oracle made $5.5 BILLION in the third quarter.

The CEO is the third richest man on the planet.

How much is enough?

Time for the pitchforks.

Trump's first term was on the coattails of the economy Obama built from scratch - without help from Republicans - after the 2008 financial catastrophe.

His second term has no one in it to keep him within guardrails.

We're experiencing the pure unadulterated Trump left to his own devices

Look where we are; inflation and costs ever rising, in the middle of a war, alienated from allies, unemployment rising ...

He bankrupted TWO casinos and was on the verge of a personal bankruptcy when The Apprentice rescued him financially.

You fell for the false idol We tried to warn you.

American workers..get used to the storm coming your way, because AI and those who are making billions off creating a power to rival the working man or woman, that power is coming for your job, for your relationship, for your sense of belonging to a people, rather than as a refugee in your own country. Ask poor people today who are being priced out of the rental market, out of the education market, the health markets...if they think the super rich give a damn about them and their pain?

As a Texan, I am outraged(!) you disparage our fair state, and by fair, I mean: not horrible.
Why sis or madam, we are IN THE MIDDLE in health care quality (ok, below the middle) and in the middle in education!

we are proudly number ONE in maternal death rate of all 50 states! And number one in cooperating with Trump and ICE!

According to my experience, about 10% of software "engineers" know what they're doing, and the others bum subroutines from these.
Their chief task is frankensteining together the borrowed subs and editing the authorship text.
I have seen many cases of a large subroutine used to just read a switch. "Oh they want more memory again?"
