Boeing shareholders approved a $33M pay package for CEO Dave Calhoun, despite the company's major safety problems — which Calhoun is testifying about before the Senate today.

Calhoun is resigning by year's end. Guess what he gets then?

A $45 million golden parachute.

Unreal.

@rbreich It's funny how CEOs get so much money for doing a bad job but the rest of us would be in financial ruin if we did something similar in our jobs.

CEO compensation is absurd.

Speaker Johnson is adding Scott Perry to the House Intel Committee.

Perry sought a pardon for his key role in trying to overturn the 2020 election. People who try to overthrow the U.S gov't don't belong in the House, let alone on the Intel Committee.

@arstechnica Tesla should remove him from the CEO position. He has obviously led Tesla's technology to stagnation and is sucking resources from the company.

The Appeal to Heaven flag isn't just tied to Jan 6.

It's a Christian nationalist symbol.

Christian nationalists believe that the law of the land is not the Constitution, but instead the law of God as they interpret it.

Do you see the problem with Alito flying this flag?

@rbreich Christian nationalist -> Nationalist Christians -> Nat Cs

You know something has gone terribly wrong when 94% of teachers have to dip into their own pockets to buy school supplies while the average Wall Street employee gets a bonus of $176,500. Hello?

@rbreich What's more important to society: guiding our next generation of people or moving money around?

Tax the rich, fund education.
