This Lender Said Its Loans Would Help Tennesseans. It Has Sued More Than 110,000 of Them.

The Flex Loan, a type of payday loan pioneered by Advance Financial, has burdened low-income borrowers while generating huge profits for lenders. Tennessee lawmakers declined to rein in the lending business, even as other states did.

“Nobody wants to hire lawyers that won’t help themselves.” - George Conway on #American law firms who capitulate to #DonaldTheDeplorable. ✅

@GreenFire @darwinwoodka @samiamsam @Tengrain ‘Lodococo’ reminds me of the ‘Southern’ #Democrats who conflated their bigotry with their politics. As I said, no one can escape their past.

Despite the anti-#science crusade by the #Trump clown 🤡 show in the White House, the cover story of the latest issue of #Science is *not* a dire prediction of the devastating impacts of #DOGE cuts on the future #economy and #publichealth of the #UnitedStates. It is about the previous #AgentOrange that was used during the #Vietnam war, which the current ‘Agent Orange’ lied about having bone spurs to avoid. #USpol #resist

Photo of the April 25 issue of Science magazine, the title of the cover story is “The Legacy of Agent Orange.”

@faraiwe @Tengrain No amount of apathy, selfishness or pettiness will help someone escape their past.

Worsening #allergies aren’t your imagination. A forestry professor explains #climatechange is extending pollen seasons by an average of 20 days and increasing pollen concentrations by 21% across North America: buff.ly/H3kmkdV

"It’s worth noting that 116,000 tons of food sits at the Gaza border and Israel is refusing to allow that food in which means it’s refusing to save the lives of all those children. Imagine being able to save a starving child and refusing to do so. Now imagine refusing to save 290,000 children. The level of evil is incomprehensible"

BWAHAHAHAHAAAAAAA! DYING 🤣

The National Catholic Reporter is showing the cowards in #media how it's done!

In response to Lindsey Graham leg humping #Trump with a nomination to be #Pope:

"It is imperative, according to canon law, that any candidate is of sound mind.

"Canon 171 §1, n.1 says that 'Those who lack the use of reason are incapable of a valid ecclesiastical election.'

"This, along with not being a baptized Catholic, would rule out President Trump."

@Tengrain I hope that #Uncommitted voters in the #UnitedStates will gaze on #Gaza with horror and regret.
