Hey Congress, you can tackle affordability immediately by making this shit illegal
Walmart and Kroger are quietly rolling out an internal store technology across America that could either modernize retail or bankrupt the middle-class family budget.
Starting across thousands of locations heading into 2027, traditional paper price tags are being ripped off grocery shelves and replaced with cloud-connected digital screens. Raise the price of bottled water by 20 percent the second the afternoon temperature hits 90 degrees. Surge the cost of ground beef, milk, and sandwich bread between 5 PM and 6 PM when exhausted commuters are rushing home from work. Drop prices at 10 AM on a Tuesday, then hike them right back up the minute the after-school crowd walks through the sliding doors.
Every price change happens wirelessly in seconds from a central corporate dashboard. No store employee has to touch a single shelf.
Walmart has already signed a massive deployment deal with VusionGroup to wire 2,300 American supercenters with EdgeSense digital shelf rails by 2027. Kroger is expanding its own Microsoft-backed system called EDGE across hundreds of supermarkets. Over 60 million digital price tags are already blinking on US grocery aisles right now.
This is not supply chain inflation. This is Uber-style surge pricing built directly into the shelves where Americans buy baby formula, eggs, and medicine.
Last week I sat down for coffee with a former retail pricing director who spent 14 years building supermarket margin algorithms before leaving the industry. What he shared over the table completely changed how I look at a grocery aisle.
"Retailers just turned static shelves into live stock tickers. The question is not whether grocery chains will use instant price changes, because they already spent billions installing the hardware. The question is how much extra money a family of four will lose every week simply because both parents work until 5 PM and cannot shop during off-peak hours."
Here is how the digital grocery pricing system actually works, how it tracks you in the aisle, and the exact phone settings and checkout playbook you need to beat it.
Shocking! I thought they were the party that loves the Vet’s. Looks like it’s just lip service. Hegseth can’t even be respectful at Arlington Cemetery!
NEW: On Veterans Day, House Republicans pulled a dirty trick to pass a bill with a voice vote that cuts Veterans Benefits.

Tim O’Hare, the Texas judge that closed 92 polling stations in Tarrant County, Texas to help give republicans an advantage is out. Voters gave him the boot and replaced him with a black woman. Gotta love that sweet justice.
Hey @MikeJohnson sit & spin on these numbers! Now that’s what I call a MANDATE!
260 seats. We didn't just win the Majority. We sent a message.
This victory belongs to the voters, volunteers, organizers, and supporters who made it happen. Thank you for believing, showing up, and making history with us.

And this is why the GOP lost the midterms. Clueless about what American People need & want!
I hope everyone takes a good hard look at this picture.
Trump’s under-construction ballroom is now bigger than the rest of the White House. Much bigger.
The contrast says everything you need to know about this President and his priorities.

They have no respect. I have been there when I was young & that is a very solemn area. Even 6 grade Saftely Patrols Guards knew how to act!
A soldier guarding the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier issued a verbal reprimand to a group of advisers and staffers with Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth following a Veterans Day ceremony at Arlington National Cemetery. As the group broke from taking photos, a loud laugh could be heard, and the soldier guarding the tomb shouted: “All visitors will maintain an atmosphere of silence and respect at all times.”

Gov Tony Evers announced today that Wisconsin has achieved a top three national ranking for connecting military veterans with successful long-term employment

And this is WHY the GOP lost. All they want to do is divide us.
We want to get things done for the American people. They just want to fight! Stop!
A message for those demoralized by last week's elections and feel like giving up: That's what leftists are counting on, because they never will. They will keep fighting until they control anything, but the only way they'll ever truly win is if you stop opposing them.

The Pentagon’s F-35 office cannot accurately track the $31 billion of F-35 parts, cannot account for parts reported missing and has not sufficiently trained staff members to oversee the status of the parts. stripes.com/theaters/us/2026…
Thanks to the BIG BEAUTIFUL BILL that Trump & the GOP pushed thru.
Make no mistake about it—healthcare costs are through the roof because President Trump and Republicans in Congress passed their disastrous so-called Big Beautiful Bill and refused to do anything to provide real relief for working families.
ALT Ripped headline from The New York Times "Obamacare dealt yet another blow as premiums jump again premiums will increase an average 13 percent next year for millions of Americans, on the top of an earlier steep increase. It adds to the problems facing the program, which the Trump administration has weakened."

That is a really big deal!

Wisconsin, follow suit when you are all sworn in!
WOW: On the first day of bill filing for the new TX Legislature, Democrats introduced bills to expand Medicaid, raise the minimum wage, end data center tax breaks, ban Flock cameras, legalize marijuana, and repeal ICE partnerships for sheriffs.
Taking Texas by the horns.

Crowley has pledged to return Wisconsin to the Tommy Thompson model of 2/3 state funding for public schools. That will return to property tax levels back to relatively lower levels Wisconsinites enjoyed under Thompson's tenure... which was also pre-Act 10!

The anonymous artists who have taunted President Trump and his administration with more than a dozen statues and installations around D.C. struck again Monday, this time with a statue mocking Trump for avoiding military service because of bone spurs.

ALT A large mascot resembling a toe, wearing a jersey labeled "TOEY," stands playfully beside the statue "The Foot Soldier." The statue depicts a figure sitting, examining their foot. The background includes a partly cloudy sky and a building.
ALT A satirical monument features a bronze-textured shoe next to a plaque. The plaque humorously criticizes Donald J. Trump, mentioning his draft-dodging actions and making a play on words about spelling "sacrifice" without "I." Beneath are several stars and a quote attributed to Trump: "I can be very military.
