The Biden Admin is requiring airlines to disclose add-on costs like baggage fees upfront.

It's expected to save fliers $500M/year by making it easier to comparison shop.

Would you be surprised if I told you that Trump's Admin fought against efforts to rein in airline junk fees?

@rbreich
Airlines are fighting this as well.

A "Stop the Steal" flag reportedly flew at the home of Justice Samuel Alito, just days after Jan 6.

Alito not being forced to recuse from Trump's immunity case and upcoming Jan 6 cases tells you everything you need to know about the new SCOTUS code of "ethics."

It's a sham.

SCOTUS ia a sham and has been for some time now.

@georgetakei One more corrupt politician claiming that she is going to go after "corrupt politicians". LOL. What a surprise...

Also, just because she calls herself a Christian does not make her one...

Will Trump be criminally convicted in his election interference trial? If so, will it affect the election?

I am not sure it will affect those in his cult. After all, apparently Jesus loves people who cheat on their wives with pornstars...

For Nat'l Police Week, Speaker Johnson is hosting a candlelight vigil tonight to honor fallen police officers.

But first he's in New York to support Trump, who has promised to pardon the violent criminals who brutally assaulted about 140 Capitol Police on Jan 6.

Trump's administration weakened or wiped out more than 125 environmental rules over four years.

Now, he's promised to do whatever Big Oil wants if they give him $1 billion for his campaign.

That's the thing with Trump: He'll sell us all out for his own gain.

Be warned.

He is basically nothing but a mob boss. Extortion, kickbacks, whatever can make him and his cronies a quick buck.

Not so much.

Stock buybacks don't just line the pockets of CEOs and shareholders — they're dangerous.

Boeing failed to implement a $7B redesign of its 737 Max while spending that much per year on buybacks.

A dollar spent on buybacks is a dollar less spent to upgrade equipment and safety.
