BAD: GOP Sen Jim Banks lying about @abdulelsayed.bsky.social’s positions, falsely claiming that El-Sayed called for open borders and abolishing prisons. WORSE: @kristenwelker.bsky.social letting Banks’ lies go uncorrected. I was able to fact check on Google in 2 min. WHERE ARE HER PRODUCERS?
“America Will Never Be the Same”? Neither will my definition of shitshow. Y’all gotta see this video. Priceless. ☠️ 😂

EXCLUSIVE: A Scottish council has been accused of acting as a 'receptionist' for a company developing an AI data centre that would displace plans for more than 1000 homes if built www.thenational.scot/news/2...
This is shocking. An woman left a voicemail message with North Lanarkshire council, objecting to a data centre being built, and then she got a call from the organisation building the data centre? Wtf happened here?

it's wild to watch elected republicans, who are historically unpopular, go on television every day and try to sell the public on the only thing more unpopular than they are.
Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com · 22h agoEMMER: Our enemy -- China -- is trying to stop us from beating them in the AI war by frustrating our ability to build data centers BARTIROMO: Yeah. It is an industrial revolution part 2 with the amount of jobs and build out from these data centers, and it's certainly helping the economy as well
TAPPER: It's 800,000 jobs created according to you, versus 2 million under Biden. And economists say two Trump policies -- tariffs and the Iran war -- are weighing on the economy. HASSETT: I don't think tariffs are an issue T: It's not me saying tariffs are leading to higher costs. It's the Fed

This is why I find the 'AI has uses' or the 'AI is marketed wrong' so dumb. Of course everything comes with a trade off, but, you can't possibly think that what few things it can do is worth being "the biggest climate polluter in the US." That seems absolutely insane

AI data centers don't create jobs. They kill jobs. And if you want to beat China, try green energy. That's where the future is. These people are so stupid.

Thierry Henry speaks to Zohran Mamdani about his love for NYC. "New York City is one of the best representations of how the world is. It reminds me of my neighborhood on a bigger scale. The song by Nas, NY State Of Mind... It *is* a state of mind. It is a way of living."

El-Sayed: "Imagine if instead of paying that to your health insurance company, whose CEO makes $20m a year, you paid a little bit more in taxes for healthcare you wouldn't lose. I think all of us would a lot more interested in that system if we knew our healthcare would be free at point of care"
Muslims aren't the United States' biggest threat. Christian nationalists like mean, crazy, and fake-Christian Nancy Mace are. (And Trojan is capitalized, you semi-literate troll.)
They openly admit their election crimes & are actively doing everything they can to undermine & outright steal the Midterm Elections. Any surprise he fired the remaining members of the Election Assistance Commission? He knows if he loses he's headed for a 3rd Impeachment & an orange jumpsuit. 🤞 👍
AOC: Millennials are not punk kids anymore. We're grown adults with mortgages and kids, and that generation is starting to be decisive at the polls. And there is anger at being ignored, having our economic futures mortgaged by the generations that came before us and we're taking the reins
Outrageous. Rand Paul should be removed as head of that committee. He has abused his position for a personal grievance.
Got to see this pretty cool lake in Oregon with my wife @zoandbehold.bsky.social :) Oregon really showed off for me. What an incredible state, even despite the smokiness. We camped at Diamond Lake Campground.
