A data center was just shut down in Wisconsin after the town council refused to have private talks with the developer and told them everything would include public approval That’s how it’s done, folks

Call me crazy, but if a Democratic president had 350 accounts closed by their bank for money laundering it’d be more than a blip in the media
A vote to confirm Todd Blanche is a vote against justice for Epstein survivors.
The whole point of the Bill of Rights is to protect the only true minority - the individual. It limits the governments power to harm the individual. The whole constitution is designed to limit the governments power.
Every vote to confirm Todd Blanche as attorney general is a vote to continue the coverup of the Epstein Files.
11 years ago today, Ken Paxton surrendered at the Collin County Jail on felony securities fraud charges. This is his mugshot.
MEDIA PSA: When you call it the $1.8 Billion “anti-weaponization fund” you’re helping Trump sane-wash it It’s an “insurrectionist slush fund” A “heist” or “theft” from taxpayers A “scheme” to enrich himself When you use his words you aren’t a journalist, you’re a stenographer
Even for a regime with more scandals than you can count, this ranks near the top as one of the most egregious and criminal abuses of presidential power in history.
So many sneering elitist journalists with snarky posts over the past months that the Reflecting Pool story was trivial. It was so trivial that the DC US Attny presented false evidence to a grand jury to indict an innocent man to please the President while they both lied about it.
There's no reason a politician should have a better healthcare plan than any of their constituents regardless of military service. I say this as a Veteran.
Seth Meyers just referred to Steven Miller as the Cyclops’ two-eyed brother. Biclops. 💀
There are a lot of important things going on. Maybe this isn’t a top twenty concern. But, this is actually workplace harassment, the kind that can get people killed.
The Koch Nazis are back “A shadowy network of conservative activist groups, backed by Koch-linked dark money, is deploying hidden cameras and mass public-records requests to hunt down and destroy the careers of college professors and administrators — and it's working.”
Considering how badly Covid was mishandled, they're probably going to regret the decision to make Fauci's personal diary and journal public. We're going to see how it was handled from the insider, from Fauci's point of view... based on you know...science.
As I've said before: What high-paying long-term jobs do they pretend exist here? A data center isn't a place where execs come and do Big Deals. Go to the server room at your workplace; are there lots of rich people in there spending money?
Hassett: "Data centers are very good for towns bc they create so many jobs & bring people in with high incomes that can buy houses & stuff like that. So if you take a sleepy town that hasn't seen much in the last 30 years & put a data center there, there are gonna be a bunch of happy residents."
Talarico: When I get tough questions, I answer them. When Ken Paxton gets tough questions, he runs away, literally runs away from reporters, from voters, from anyone asking hard questions. If you've given an Epstein style sweetheart deal to a child predator, you should have to answer questions.
Yes! Act accordingly! There is still a strain in Dem thinking that is colored by the idea that Trump tapped into something Real that can't be ignored. Time to get over that.
Historically, Trump's numbers are closer to those of presidents who aren't invited to the next nominating convention than to presidents who get to hand pick the next nominee. Act accordingly.
The hateful bullying behavior Senator Bernie Moreno (R-OH) & Senator Rand Paul (R-KY) show Fauci is the same the administration is using against the United States public. 👉🏼vote in better representation 👉🏼read Letters from an American 🇺🇸 by @hcrichardson.bsky.social open.substack.com/pub/heatherc...

Liz Stein is an Epstein survivor and an anti-trafficking advocate. Her message couldn't be clearer: "A vote for Todd Blanche is a vote against victims of crime everywhere."
Forced pregnancy - and therefore any abortion restriction - is reproductive violence - a specific, systemic form of gender-based violence. The UN has spoken.
Columnist Carrie N. Baker: A groundbreaking UN resolution calls forced pregnancy what it is: reproductive violence - Daily Hampshire Gazette
It took until July 7, 2026, for the world’s leading human rights body to call forcing someone to be pregnant — or forcing them not to be — what it is: reproductive violence. In a landmark resolution a...

Corporate welfare queens rank right alongside billionaires as a pox on our society and our politics.
1. American taxpayers are spending $2 BILLION every year providing Medicaid benefits to hundreds of thousands of employees of Amazon and Walmart, a new analysis by Popular Information reveals.
"None of this—not a single bit of it—is actually about their protective instincts for a 2,800-year-old epic poem and its historical context. It’s about their insatiable craving for outrage and grievance. They are constantly starved for things to be angry about." A good read about grievance culture
"It has been a truly humiliating few weeks for Elon Musk and his followers, and it’s only going to get worse. If I weren’t laughing so much, I would almost feel sorry for them."
This is American news claiming that a Russian attack on Ukraine was a Ukrainian attack on Russia. The only way Russia wins this war is when we spread its propaganda, as we are doing here.
Why is ABC doing false stories based on Russian propaganda?
