You don’t see toxic data centers near Mar-a-Lago or at Elon Musk’s house. Why? Because they think they are the only class of people that deserve clean land, air, & water. Memphis needs a data center moratorium until proper regulations are passed to protect our communities.

TEXAS REPUBLICANS DID IT —63 DAYS BEFORE ELECTION DAY Tarrant County, they voted 3–2 to close 92 Election Day polling locations, cutting the number from 316 to 224. More than 100 people showed up to speak out before the vote. Republicans did it anyway. Closing nearly 30% of the polling places.

Good news! The USPS whistleblower allegations are now officially in front of a federal judge. The groups challenging Trump’s mail-in voting executive order have submitted the whistleblower disclosure to the federal court in Massachusetts as part of their push for a preliminary injunction.

The orange felon recently said that embracing destructive immoral data centers is the secret to being rich and successful. Which means the lifelong thieving fraudster criminal has invested in data centers and wants people to suffer as a result of that greed. I hate him immensely.

🚨 TEXAS: THEY’RE TRYING TO CLOSE 92 ELECTION DAY POLLING PLACES Tarrant County officials are set to vote TODAY on cutting Election Day voting locations from 316 to 224, nearly 1 in 3 polling places gone. Civil rights groups warn the cuts could disproportionately burden Black, Latino & Asian voters

Remember in 2025 when legal eminences publicly scolded people who used the term “constitutional crisis,” because the Trump White House hadn’t explicitly defied court orders, and then the Trump White House explicitly defied various court orders, and those same prominent legal voices said nothing?

BREAKING: A U.S. Postal Service official has filed a whistleblower report alleging the agency is pushing ahead with a “secretive, rushed” effort to implement Trump’s order giving the federal government more control over mail voting, despite a court order blocking the plan.

1/ Just in: An anonymous federal worker has filed a whistleblower disclosure warning that the U.S. Postal Service's attempt to create a system to regulate mail voting for the midterms has been "rushed, chaotic, and fundamentally flawed." @propublica.org has the details 👇

Screenshot of the top of a whistleblower disclosure titled "USPS Rushed Implementation of New and Untested IT Systems Threatens U.S. Ballot Mail Delivery." Addressed to Senator Blumenthal, the first point details how the whistleblower has "significant concerns about the USPS's secretive, rushed, chaotic, and fundamentally flawed process for the creation and implementation of an entirely new and untested set of IT systems" intended for the 2026 midterms.

The details in here show how dangerous this is for democracy. An anonymous federal official warns that a rushed USPS portal tied to Trump’s mail-voting order could reject large batches of ballots before the midterms.
