Our power was out for an hour and a half and it was inconvenient. Two weeks is unfathomable. The people of Gary deserve better.
Ricky Davila@therickydavila.bsky.social · 2w agoA reminder that Gary, Indiana has been without power for just about 2 weeks now. Gary has 8 destructive data centers that strains their power grid. Over 70% of Gary’s population are Black. Indiana is controlled by fascist republicans. You do the math. Pay attention.
Our power is out for the second time this weekend. This time seems like someone hit a power pole. Or two.
Trump rails against Democrats as communists and how socialism is the greatest threat to our country, yet he's undercutting American ranchers with artificially price-fixed foreign beef to boost his weak polling. Yet Montana ranchers will still vote Republican for some reason. Vote them out.
‘Extremely disappointed’: Western GOP lawmakers slam Trump’s beef plan
“American ranchers have been struggling ... and this will further harm them — most of whom are MAGA Republicans,” Sen. Tim Sheehy, R-Mont., said.

More thankful every day we put solar on our house. Fuck NWE and the PSC (who basically are rubber stamps for NWE.) Also, it's good that Marc Racicot admitted deregulation of Montana Power was a massive mistake. But that doesn't absolve him.

He does this while calling Democrats communists and saying that communism is the biggest threat to the US. North Korea is a communist dictatorship. Trump is a traitor and dangerous to the free world.
Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com · 2w agoTrump allies himself w/Kim Jong Un against South Korea: “Based on my very good relationship w/Kim Jong Un, I am not happy that the US has agreed to Joint Military Exercises…I recently asked the President of SK if they would like to join us in the Denuclearization of Iran, & they said, ‘No thanks!’”
But the administration refuses to send resources to Washington state and other states that didn't vote for Trump. This is blatantly Putinesque behavior.

And the Trump justice department working with Trump's lawyers will go to Trump appointed judges and if need be to the Trump Supreme Court a full 1/3rd of whom he appointed and two others as corrupt as him. Tell me it's not a dictator move.

Trump isn't just a coward. He's a coward who put a about hundred other people, including other members of his administration at risk while scurrying away. Despite his "fight fight fight" bravado after a supporter of his shot and killed another supporter of his, he's selfish and yellow-bellied.
PR'd my back squat (post fusion) by 5 pounds yesterday. Probably never getting back in the 4-plate+ club but love a little progress.
So he and the majority in Congress were fraudulently elected, is that what he's saying? 🤔
Headquarters@headquartersnews.bsky.social · 4w agoTrump: The elections are rigged in this country. And that's been proven in 2020
For a bunch of people who claim to be believers in the Constitution, MAGA sure hate the Constitution. Apparently the only strictly immutable amendment in their world is the second.

El-Sayed should use that in an ad. Seems like incentive to vote for him to me.
Brian Tyler Cohen@briantylercohen.bsky.social · 4w agoTrump just released a statement warning that if Abdul El-Sayed wins the Michigan Senate race, “I will be, sadly, the last Republican President!
The richness that it was his lawsuit claiming their actions in closing his accounts were political that brought about this filing. Even richer when they say they had to close the accounts because it's a federal requirement. He's such a moron. And a criminal one at that.

I love people who live in the Spokane area. The information coming out of it about the fires is extremely scary.
Looking forward to Monday and Tuesday after two weeks plus of 90-112 highs.
The Governor illegally trapped and killed a wolf (radio collared), without a required certification. But FWP treated him as a very special boy like his idol, and he got away with it. He got a "warning" but I bet if someone he doesn't like does the same, they'll get in trouble.

He'd probably would be upset if he knew Bill Clinton doesn't need AI for a pic with JFK.

This is the western United States right now. Fires all over. That's in about 350 million acres. How these people think anyone could "rake," "groom," or "maintain" nearly a billion acres of forest (911 million acres in Canada) just proves how either stupid or disingenuous.
Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com · last mo.Rep. Jeff Van Drew: "Canada isn't working because they are so far left. This should be a warning shot to them. You better come to America, say, 'We're sorry, we're gonna mend our ways and do what we used to do and groom and maintain the forest.'"
Can someone more knowledgeable tell me why that wasn't a goal? Seems like it's Spain against Argentina and FIFA.
First off, there's value in education beyond the financial. Second, does this mean they're either going to raise teacher pay or plan on no longer having new teachers?
