When folks here have criticized CEOs before, this must have been why.

I’d argue that most CEO’s of major corporations are staunch conservatives but have PR people help them appear to be left leaning to avoid PR issues.

Whatever bro, no way CEOs just try to appear PC cuz they think it’s good for bidness. Read the writing on the wall!

CEOs are clearly bleeding heart leftists who would rather relinquish their executive power to well-organized workers. Heck, they’re probably telling the workers to unionize!

They’d even try to do everything from paying living wages to saving the environment, even if it meant a dip in otherwise record profits! Won’t someone *please* think of those shareholders?

They’d prob even go donate their time and money to homeless shelters before they ever blew it all on vacation homes and yachts and jets for theyselves.


Those plucky leftist CEOs!

The top 2% are the ones that realize that they won't even notice if the top marginal rate is raised.

For decades.

"Wyden and Heinrich requested the declassification of a report by the Privacy and Civil Liberties Oversight Board on a CIA bulk collection program, in a letter sent April 13, 2021. The letter, which was declassified and made public today reveals that “the CIA has secretly conducted its own bulk program,” authorized under Executive Order 12333, rather than the laws passed by Congress."

As an FYI, Executive Order #1233 was signed in 1981 by Ronald Reagan.

Oh no!

NEW YORK (Reuters) - A U.S. judge on Monday said he will throw out Sarah Palin's defamation lawsuit against the New York Times after concluding that the newspaper did not in an editorial maliciously link the former Alaska governor and 2008 Republican U.S. vice presidential candidate to a mass murder.

In an unexpected twist in a trial seen as a test of longstanding protections for American media, U.S. District Judge Jed Rakoff in Manhattan said Palin's lawsuit will be dismissed because she failed to show the Times acted with "actual malice."

But the judge said he will enter a formal dismissal order only after jurors, who began deliberations on Friday, reach their own verdict.

Rakoff said he expected Palin to appeal, and that the appeals court "would greatly benefit from knowing how the jury would decide it."

The judge's action effectively takes the case out of the hands of the jurors in a trial that began on Feb. 3. Jurors will continue deliberating without being informed of the judge's action.
I saw the worst minds of my generation empowered by madness, bloated farcical naked,
dragging themselves through the whitewashed streets at dawn looking for a grievance fix.

Man, why didn’t anyone tell Q to get on Reddit sooner. Some of the brightestest conservative memes there is!

What better way to own the commie socialist libs than getting the workers of the world to unite!

What should Q call this ideology, anyway?
